    I'm a big fan of the Brazilian Octopus album, which has that international MPs fondue party sound that I can't resist. RIP.

    Larry Hart is the subject of a new film. It takes place on the opening night of Rodgers' and Hammerstein's Oklahoma. Ethan Hawke plays Hart.

    Not familiar, but will check it! Is it all instrumental? I'm really looking for certain types of lyrics with this thread, but thanks for the suggestion, regardless.

    @JSngry, do any of you JSQ box sets have that Columbia album I posted earlier with Ginastera quartet and the modern sculpture on the cover?

    I've accumulated a lot of her LPs, mainly because of John Dankworth involvement, and most of these are still in the massive "to be cleaned" section, decades later. Maybe I need to do something about this.

    Of those early '70s Tjader Fantasy LPs, I have Tjader & Funky Quarters. I generally like these albums, but I don't like the sound of the Fender Rhodes piano with the vibes. They share a similar timbre, and they sometimes sound like mud when they are playing together. Granted, piano players had limited instrument choices for live gigs in the early 70s.

    That was the first Cal Tjader I had on CD, and at the time, I thought it was a great comp. I would probably still think so.

    So it looks like I have all the Verve LPs with the exception of Hip Vibrations. From the first Fantasy period, I probably have about half of them. I think I have two Skye albums, and then a few scattered releases from after his return to Fantasy. I typically gravitate toward the Verve albums, but there is so much great stuff from that first Fantasy period.

    Thank you both. I'll check out the YouTube vids.

    And, needless to say, nowhere near as good.

    "Triste" (not to be confused with the Jobim tune) is the money cut on here, though the whole album is great. Agreed, and I might go a tad further and call it a Schifrin album with Cal as guest soloist. Completely agree. It sucks as both jazz and exotica, although the version of "Black Orchid" is nice (and almost identical to the Fantasy version).

    Not being a fan of Star Wars, and not being into John Williams per se, I'm learning only now that in 1980, Ron Carter released an album of themes from The Empire Strikes Back, titled Empire Jazz. Has anyone heard it?

    I expected this to be a like a proto-CTI record, given the year and Sebesky's involvement. Instead, it sounds more like a space-age bachelor pad record from the early 1960s, in a good way.
