Another great batch this week. The two on the right were new-to-me, needless to say wonderful!!

This morning:


Stevie Wonder - Innervisions
Charles Williams - Trees And Grass And Things
I always had a soft spot on this LP, great music with a feel-good vibe in the Adams-Pullen vein. I still wonder why Williams had made no records as a leader past the mid-70s.

Big preference for the records at the bottom.

I have just finished Dr Dre - 2001. I know why I should always stick to instrumentals. 95% of rap vocals are discredited by their overuse of bling bling, nigga nigga, me me, bitch bitch, fuk fuk, money money...

Starting now: The Progressive Al cohn (Savoy, aka Al Cohn's tones) and enjoying it quite a lot!

Monk's Les Liaisons dangereuses 1960 has been released this week on 1 LP format. Maybe not a collector's item as the 2LP release, but a great place to start for me (http://www.samrecords.fr/shop/thelonious-monk-les-liaisons-dangereuses-1960-simple-lp-version-coming-soon/).

Composer's Workshop Ensemble - s/t [Strata East]

enjoying a first listen to this.

Can anyone shed any light on the other recordings that appear under Warren Smith's name with this group on Miff and Baystate? More of the same?

Haven't heard the Baystate (wish I had that one) but the Miff is scaled upward with a larger ensemble, poetry, and so forth. It's also quite good.

thanks Clifford

quite fond of that one.

I think I will become so. The contrast between the two sides is interesting. Side 1 made an immediate impact for its subtlety and restraint - not you typical ESP session
