Didn’t get a chance to hear all of this before going off to PT, so I’m listening to it again!

Issued under Wilen's name, but this sure sounds like Kenny Dorham's gig. He announces all of the tunes and almost always takes the first solo spot. But maybe Wilen, Gilbert Rovere, and Daniel Humair were just being gracious hosts? Whatever the backstory, fabulous music.

Gee that´s a good idea THANK YOU FOR MENTIONING IT !!!

My sister has a small jazz club, and always needs some records that is good, when there is not live music. 

And for late nights those ole hard bop records are good. 

I recommended to her "Mobley Soul Station", and Jimmy Smith "Sermon" .....so this Kenny Burrell at Five Spot might fit in that club, what´s your opinion ?

Interesting, I never saw that record. I think I have only one record from Keystone Korner and it is a Blakey record.

I love Monk with Rouse but it´s hard to identify the records I think there was a lot of live records but some I think was bootleg. I don´´t know what label he was under contract, but it´s strange there are Monk records from almost every European Country and all of then in that narrow interval of the 60´s  . 

Same with Mingus. I think there are dozens of records of the same tunes, but one let´s say in Germany, one lets say in Italy or France.....that´s hard to choose any of them

This is excellent.

This is weirder but I like it.
