Keith Jarrett/Gary Peacock/Jack DeJohnette “Always Let me Go–Live in Tokyo” ECM 2 cd set, disc 2

Reaching back to the earliest cd version I have retained of “Miles in Berlin”–the SBM Master Sound lp facsimile version, which is sounding mighty good this morning. This was the earliest concert of the Quintet with Wayne Shorter released before this year’s box set of recordings in '63 and '64 in France. And it has long been a favorite since the LP version was first released way back when in the US as part of a 2 LP set. “Miles in Berlin” Sony SRCS 9708 cd

Starting off this morning with this interesting 7th release from Jorge Ben (in 1970) “Brut Forca” on a Philips cd reissue. 500×500 67.1 KB

Not to my ears. . . sounded a bit more progressive than that and I can see what Alfred Lion heard in this music to "foster" and it was one of the sessions that led to RVG being the Blue Note engineer of choice.

500×500 64.9 KB SFJazz Collective “Works of Horace Silver plus New Compositions” 3 cd set, disc 2 (new compositions)

Gil Melle "Patterns in Jazz" Blue Note 24 bit by RVG lp facsimile cd

COLD this morning. . . but the snow stopped. Starting off with disc 15 of this excellent box set: Duke Ellington The Duke Ellington Centennial Edition: The Complete RCA Victor Recordings (1927-1973)

Norman Connors and Pharoah Sanders “Beyond a Dream” Arista Nova/Sony cd Japan

Bill Charlap “Stardust” Blue Note cd

Tony Bennett & Bill Charlap “The Silver Lining: The Songs of Jerome Kern” RPM/Columbia cd Wow.

Followed by “Bill Evans in Norway” Elemental Music cd

Last week's Columbo, no I mean "Elsbeth" -- looking forward to this week when her guest 'villiain" will be her real life husband.

Allen Lowe, “Louis Armstrong’s America Volume 1” disc 2 Fascinating set. Like a bizarro universe at times, but truly involving.

“Swiss Radio Days Vol. 48 - Louis Armstrong All Stars” Dot Time cd New release. . . slightly different lineup with McCracken on clarinet. . . sound is good (Louis could be a little louder when singing).

One of my favorite Ted Nash cds. Ted Nash “Portrait In Seven Shades – Jazz At Lincoln Center Orchestra”

Out of/Into "Motion I" Blue Note What a band!

Miles Davis “The Complete Live At The Plugged Nickel 1965” SACD box set, disc 2 and 3

Mine is also processing.

Cool. I've ordered more of his work while listening to the cd, including those two.

Rain and warmer temps today. . . welcome indeed. Starting off the day with a cd that a listener on another board brought to my attention, thanks amigo. Matthias Lupri Group “Same Time Twice” Summit cd A great cd! Mark Turner is the icing on the cake for me, but the leader delivers.

Angela Hewill “Beethoven: Piano Sonatas Vol.7” Hyperion SACD Thought about my Dad a lot since Thanksgiving and pulled this out to listen to. . . some of his favorite music. \

The Joymakers "Down Where the Bluebonnets Grow" cd Wow. These Texans nail the authentic acoustic recording era jazz music feel and swing and play so very well. The engineering too brings an authentic full-bodied sound with no deficiency. I met multi-instrumentalist Colin Hancock who I think is the heart and soul of this band if not the leader. . . an amazing musician. Wow.
