Today, I went to our county Library Sale. I brought home 19 CDs -- all at $2 per disc.
Most of them were classical CDs. Not much selection jazz-wise. But still good fun.
Now spinning:
Oliver Lake - Gallery (Gramavision, 1986)
Alto Saxophone, Soprano Saxophone, Tenor Saxophone, Flute – Oliver Lake
Piano – Geri Allen
Bass – Fred Hopkins
Drums – Pheeroan akLaff
I wish I could have seen that band!
I think that particular incarnation of the Messengers -- with Bobby Watson & James Williams -- was Blakey's best from his later years.
Of course, I'm only going by the records.
