I've never heard that -- but I bet it's interesting music.

Yes, excellent big band music from the early 80s (Hodeir and Monk compositions), with musicians such as Guerin, Chautemps, Di Donato, Ceccarelli among others (very much enjoyed the trombones and need to look into them too, and Solal of course).

Just acquired this gem from Dusty Groove.

This was originally released in 1964 on the Workshop Jazz label, a subsidiary of Motown Records. I assume this now falls under the Universal umbrella. Fresh Sounds hasn't reissued this since it went back under EU copyright.

A wind storm disabled cable and internet for 20 hours. . . my wife and I were withdrawing and finally eased our internet and cable addiction by watching hours of "Ballykissangel" on DVD. :)

Listening right now to a bunch of outtakes from Grateful Dead's "Wake of the Flood" I was sent by a collector years and years ago. Probably my favorite Dead album.

Though, as a musician I rarly listen to older stuff nowadays, this night towards the morning hours, which is my most active, most euphoric state of mind and ultimate happiness......

I suddenly had the urge to hear some really rough swing to bop/pre-bop black stuff and remembered I have somewhere the old record of Bird with Jay McShann Big Band. 

I was in such an exuberant mood, I played it very very very loud and started to dance all kinds of steps, in a total exthase. 

Not only Side One with Bird, even more maybe the second side, with the announcements by "Earnie Bubbles Whitman". Those versions of "Moten Swing", "Jumpin´ Blues", Winestreet Boogie, and above all "Wrap your troubles in Dreams" , I just flipped around, went nuts, full of happiness and joy. 

You can´t repeat such moments, other night, other feelings, other music.....
