George Braith, Complete BN Sessions (finally picked this up!) really digging the first disk

Geoff Keezer, Zero One (Dreyfus), nice version of Footprints

Clifford Jordan, These Are My Roots (Koch)

Emily Remler, Catwalk (Concord)

Don Braden, The Fire Within (RCA Victor)

Dorough/Frishberg, Who's On First? (BN) don't know that I'll be playing this one too frequently...

Anyone try, and recommend, any of the Naxos Jazz titles?

What do you think of it? I used to always love it, but one morning on the way to classes I was listening to it, and it was very boring for some reason. I know how can it be boring, you got Blakey and friken THREE TENORS!! But for some reason there wasn't that special flare. I haven't picked it up again. Tell me what you think of it.

Well, not purchased today, but my latest is "Long Yellow Road" --- the Akiyoshi/Tabackin orchestra. I've been wanting this import for a long, long, time.

A few from the used CD store:

Sonny Criss--Intermission Riff (Pablo OJC)

Art Blakey--New Year's Eve at Sweet Basil (I'd never seen this one before on ProJazz, but it's a rather good one from the Blanchard/Harrison/Toussaint edition of the Messengers).

The Swinging Guitar of Tal Farlow

Delmark 50 Years of Blues Anthology.

I was going to stop there, but I made the mistake of going into Border's, which is still having a buy 3 get 4 sale, and next thing I know"

Art Pepper Meets the Rhythm Section (to keep the LP company)

Magic Sam Black Magic (another friend of the LP--not as good as West Side Soul but the second side is still good)

The Best of Sidney Bechet (Blue Note)

Jimmy Smith Rockin the Boat.

I'm pretty much out of touch with what has been produced since the turn of the century, so I can't say if I agree with you about it being one of the best of the recent issues, but I like this. I'm going to put it in my car, where I can listen to it more closely.

I did a little yourmusic.com order that included Dylan's "Desire", Bootlegs Vol. 5, and this by Paula Morelenbaum that I didn't even know about and looks great:

She's so cool!

Allan, Paula is a Brazilian singer who is a veteran of the music scene enjoying a contemporary upsurge of interest due to the collaborations she, Ryko Sakamoto, and Paulo Jobim have made in the last four years or so.

With her husband Jacques (cellist and arranger and composer) she worked with Jobim in his final decade or so, in his wonderful "banda nova". . . I really love these recordings and she makes solid contributions.

I really like her voice, and her "presence" . . . . This one seems to be a bit of a departure in that she is using synths and drum machines and scratchin' record apparently as a backdrop/accompaniment at least in part. Her hubby Jacques seems to be involved, which is a PLUS.
