johnny-hammond-smith-higher-ground-20120

Johnny Hammond Smith - Higher Ground (Kudu). I've been on the lookout for this album since The Magnificent Goldberg posted his Johnny Hammond survey, and I found a copy today. I'm not sure I'll ever like it as much as he does, but any album with a Joe Henderson solo on every track is a good thing.

(Hope you've got Freddie Roach's 'Brown sugar' too.)

It's great. Turns up on eBay a lot for less than $20.

Is that from the same Ronnie Scott's engagement as the PAUSA album?

It's from two months earlier - March 15, 1976 at the Shaw Theater in London. I don't know if these gigs bookended a long European tour or whether they were separate trips.

Steve Lacy - Hocus-Pocus (Lome Armé/Les Disques Du Crépuscule). Book "H" of Practitioners, Lacy's collections of etudes he wrote for himself. He said that the idea was for them to be the kind of thing he usually wrote, but harder. As a saxophonist who pulls these off the shelf to practice every once in a while, I can confirm that they're tough.

Charlie Haden: Silence (Soul Note)

I've read at least a couple of put downs of Chet Baker's playing on this record but, to my ears at least, he sounds true to himself and the feeling is there. (And I'm not a Chet Baker fanatic.)
