Bingo. And if you're talking the Mosaic set, that's exactly where this was pulled from. 🤔 @randyhersom you are right about Darktown Strutter's Ball being the song on # 8, as well as it not being Armstrong. Not Bellerose or Jeff Parker. Definitely contemporary drumming though.

Only know power boats. Have been on a sailboat and catamaran but no knowledge of how to operate them.

Thrown together a bit hastily, with a few tracks that go off into the hinterlands. Nevertheless, here is the link for the April BFT: https://thomkeith.net/2026-organissimo-blindfold-tests/

Fantastic set. Lots of surprises too. Thanks for doing this.

Bet it sounds good

I have no idea if this is from the same collection but the Ed Hall/James Johnson/Vic Dickenson Mosaic LP box is available on Discogs right now for $25+shipping: https://www.discogs.com/sell/item/4091092210?utm_campaign=sell_email_v4&utm_source=relationship&utm_medium=notif&ev=wh_new&utm_content=feed&utm_aud=0

Rudolph Johnson The Second Coming Kirk Lightsey on keys here.

Jazz Dispensary with another good pick.

Thanks for that bandcamp link. Enjoying these volumes.

Ha, yeah you might get the rest! Great call. Another album now on my radar.

Gary Windo on track 12? I mistakenly named Shepp above when I meant Ayler, and I don't think it's him. But Windo plays a lot like Ayler.

Thanks for stopping by and leaving the link.

I had a hard time navigating that site. Maybe they'll post a link to a recording of the show?

Great to hear and many thanks.

The recovery sure as hell beats the prep, which is not fun for anyone. Hope all is well man. Eat up some real food!

Thanks for the heads up

Yeah, mine arrived Wednesday last week. I ordered another book from them at the same time that was in stock and that came near immediately. Hope you get your copy soon.

Well done. I was honing in on the drummer as the key but I've never heard of Billy Abner and wouldn't have gotten this.

My preorder came in last week. Have yet to crack it open beyond a quick scan however.

Considering his show in Charlotte as well but only for a chance to see him live. I have no idea what to expect.

Thanks. Makes sense he would be producer then. The discogs pages for this album weren't listing that credit for him that I saw.

I'm hearing tuba on 12, and I'm digging it the more I listen. Definitely notice the needle drop. Kudos. Don't think it's Ray Draper. Can't connect Howard Johnson either...Sax starting to remind me of Shepp but not having any luck there at the moment.

Elvin Jones on 9? I swear it's the sax player yelling on this track but I can't think of any who do that?

The rhythm on the Gene Shaw track is everything in that song. Looks to be written by his pianist James Taylor, whose Discogs page is as slim as they come. Listening through again and the details on 4 are falling into place. Incredible playing and timing by everyone. So was Quincy arranging these tracks? He's credited as the conductor/supervisor and I'm not sure if arranging is included as an aspect there or not. Was he basically an executive producer as well?

All Up in the Biz is a doc on him that came out a few years ago. Streams on several platforms I think. Definitely worth the watch. Dude had a big unique personality
