I thought everyone on this board hated Wynton???  He was one of the first jazz musicians I followed but over the years I've gotten bored with him. From the business/PR side of jazz he brought in a LOT of money and attention in the 90s/early 2000s. 

Jazz fans are like cats. Not all are members of a herd. I haven't become bored with Wynton, but I play so many different artists that their work seems fresh to me when they come up in rotation.

Stan Kenton “Adventures in Blues” Capitol cd

The music is very nice, but on top of that there is the excellent engineering by Capitol’s pros, there is a rich tapestry of sound so sweetly balanced and layered. . . great stereo presentation.

Lincoln Jazz Center Orchestra “Don’t Be Afraid: the Music of Charles Mingus” Palmetto cd

Not a great cover, but nice interpretations that sound like the Lincoln Jazz Center Orchestra as well as Mingus music. Nice Ron Westray (trombonist) arrangements.

A warm morning, Tobi and I had a walk in the dark that was nice.

I’m starting the day off with Charles Lloyd “Figure in Blue” Blue Note 2 cd set, disc 2. I really like this set . . . and it’s perfect for this early morning stillness.

This one keeps surprising me. My system has been improved a bit since I last heard it and it’s now spell-binding in its clarity and nuanced recorded nature.
