It´s a very good one, but most I liked the last track from another venue: "We´ll Meet Again". When you imagine, that it´s quite possible that they never met again since he died so young. 

I also like very much the other from Germany, from about the same time, with Mulgrew Miller. Larry Willis is a good piano player, but I loved Mulgrew more, and Tony Reedus more. Stafford James is great !

In preparation for the “Summer 1985” box due to arrive today, I’m listening to disc 3 of “Dave’s Picks Vol. 52” which is a 1983 concert. I’m pretty unfamiliar with late Grateful Dead as I used to not like listening to this decade or so of Dead at all.

 

I don´t really know much about it, but "Summer 85" brings other memories to me: 

In a small town in lower austria there was one festival, never repeated, but it had the greatest stars ever: 

Miles Davis, Astrud Gilberto, Pharoah Sanders, Jackie McLean, Jamaladeen Tacuma, Tommy Flanagan, Jimmy Witherspoon - Dee Dee Bridgewater, Modern Jazz Quartet, Woody Herman, Charlie Haden Libration Orchestra, Joe Zawinul.....

Funny. We all hear with different ears.  I prefer Larry Willis and Victor Lewis.

I wish I could have been there for THAT!

Following some Bandcamp back trails, I stumbled across Al Tanner's ‘Happiness Is…' record from 1967, reissued by Jazzman. https://touchejazz.bandcamp.com/album/happiness-is

And then it turns out there is another album from 1993? called Jazz Tour de Force on Spotify and Apple Music/iTunes.  This is particularly odd, as if you listen all the way through on the last two tracks they are clearly mislabeled.  Track #9 is actually Isolation.  And Track #10 appears to be "Issa" (though he may be announcing "East Side") which means that track 6 and 7 are probably entirely different compositions.  Certainly seems odd.

Has anyone else been listening to these recordings?

Summer '85 was a funky one for me. . . I was earning very little money, just beginning to play drums in a band and seemed sleep deprived a lot. . . and I had a disastrous relationship with a gal that put me completely off romance for a few years. Still, I miss some aspects of that iife in Austin then. . . so different than my sylvan life now.
