Ts-find, from the bin 

First track tells about the last moments when a chicken had it's head chopped of from the perspective of the chicken.

I am maybe the last one who would buy an Oscar Peterson album or listen to him, but I think I heard that jam, it is very good horn players, and Eddie Lockjaw is outa sight. Diz is in top form as is Clark Terry. Only that it seems that Diz made some compromis to not scare Peterson cause Diz was much more ahead of the time than. He didn´t play the straight ahead bop clichés anymore, had a young modern quartet with Rodney Jones, Benjamin Franklin Brown and Mikey Roker. 

The sound good but I don´t really like Nils Hennig, he has a  too even tone and his solos sound like exercises, and I like if you hear more plucking the strings and musical thrill from a bass player.  Nils he got a helluva chops, but somehow goes into a too plain manner like his longtime boss Peterson. Imagine those horn players with someone like Buster Williams and you´d hear the difference. 

I heard that album but OWN only one Peterson album: Singers Unlimited, maybe because you don´t hear to much of Oscar Peterson 😀

Diz, Jaws, Clark all were hip guys with style, and musical taste and an attitude you have to listen to it and love to listen to it. 

You have good ears sir, ...  This is stuff is smoking !💥but taste remains relative ofcourse.

Waiting for the storm to come. . . we haven’t had much at all so far. Hope we don’t lose power! That’s my biggest fear. I’m stocked up and will deal with the shoveling in shifts. . . just hope to keep the household calm.

Starting off with a nice Eliane Elias cd, “Everything I Love” on Blue Note.

Jimmy Rowles, to me the pianist with the most perfect subtle timing.

Duke Ellington “Jazz Party in Stereo” Columbia stereo LP

Timeless beauty in these grooves.
