For an example of latter-day Woods at his cheesiest, check out this "Watch What Happens" from “American Song Book, Vol. II.”

 

A blatant piece of bebop pole dancing, IMO.

By contrast, here’s Woods’ handsomely shaped solo on Quincy Jones’ “A Sleepin' Bee” from 1956 (Mingus, bass; Herbie Mann, flute; Art Farmer, trumpet):

or this from Jones’ “Walkin’” (Woods begins at about the 7-minute mark, though the whole track is fine, Lucky Thompson especially):

hey, youve been around rt did you see him pre or post 2005 comeback, theres a video a NYC show from 1991 on youtube, its out of control

 

 

-------

**ill tell u what im -NOT- listening to rt now, is Herb Wong's test pressing of Charisma that blue note-liberty sent him to do the liner notes for.  it was 7AM and there were 4 bids at 34 dollars and 9 seconds left i bid 120 and it was immediately rejected w/ my next option being 167 and some guy won it for 166.  it was my one opportunity in life to have the worlds 1st copy of Charisma, and i f'd it up

 

///let me add when he died, this is the one record i was wondering about.  ive been waiting all this time.  its just a little part of history, its not the end of the world i didnt get it, but it would of been nice to be the person to hold on to it

---i should add that i dont know a lot about this sort of jazz- but #1 props to Chris A. doing this #2 even though i dont know about or listen to this sort of jazz, every track sounded good to me, im listening to it now, a lot of it is blues based i think.  #3 the sound quality is FANTASTIC. ive seen the pic chris a posted yrs back, of the setup they used to record these.....well this set sounds amazing, and i totally know its not """just cause i have a white label promo"""".  love hearing this classic jazz, but in HQ sound.

Bubber Miley and his Friends 1929-1931 (French RCA). Some weird stuff here, like the strange combination of Miley's growl trumpet with Leo Reisman's sweet band. But I like incongruity, and I like this album.
