Chateau Le Boscq "Le Boscq" 2014 .... ripe Cabernet all over the place .... available for a pittance and example for why Bordeaux remains an eldorado for QPR reds (even more as the climate change grants great results on the left bank regurarly) ....

For the better?  IIRC the film was shot in VistaVision. Not sure about the VistaVision  sound system. 

Our Delight is a nice tune, most play it in Ab but since I heard the Billy Eckstine band doin´ it in Db that´s how I like it most. Tadd Dameron could it make sound like a larger band even if they did it only with quintet.  But I love most the versions from Dizzy Big Band and Billy Eckstine Big Band.  Sonny Stitt recorded it on the album 12!  James Moody I got to know him, better said because of my wife because she is the person you memory easily stunning girl as she is. That´s why James Moody recognized us after a year. We had seen him in 1999 in Viena, and one year later in Miami, that´s where he came to our table to greet us and tell us that he remembers us !!!!!

I´m still waiting for it, it was pre-ordered by Serena and will be listenable for me on 14 decembrie when there is my birthday.  About sound quality: As long as I hear the tenor and Jack deJohnette´s drums well, the world is in ordine for me. 

ITALY...... is a wonderful country with a lot of jazz fans. For me before I became a musician (as a kid, when I collected records), Italy was the "Mekka" of Jazz-LPs.  I bought mostly those from that striped series "Lineatre" or from the "Kings of Jazz" Series. Especially those "bootlegs" or "rare broadcasts" were my greatest love. I´l never forget how helpful for me was those two Miles Davis albums from 1950-51 of strict bop sessions at Birdland, when I found out, that Bebop is the basis of what I wanted to start. If you can play all that fast shit, you can go into further directions..... It was not possible for me to travel, but my parents got the possibility to visit Roma and I gave them a list of what they should buy for me (Italian pressings of jazz records).  And last not least there was the best of all: "HORO" records !!!!!  MINGUS..... first time with Jack Walrath, Ricky Ford, Danny Mixon, Danny Richmond (tunes played: Fables of Faubus, Sues Changes, Remember Rockefeller at Atica), and the second time same personnel but Bob Neloms replacing Danny Mixon (Summer 1977: Tunes: For Harry Carney, Cumbia and Jazz Fusion, Three or Four Shades of the Blues).    MUSICIAN.......me, yes ! I had thought this is common knowledge here in the Forum Organissimo.....  look at the homepage from my profile, (www.bop-explosion.com) that´s an all Leader´s formation that I formed after so much time as a sideman....., and listen to the CD we recorded this year !
