The Beatles - Yesterday and Today (Capitol mono). In the canon, this is an odd US collection of singles and tracks left off the American versions of several British albums. But if there were someone who only had one Beatles album (like me), this is just about perfect - prime 1965-66 Beatles in glorious mono.

did you check it for butcher cover dawg?

Course I did! No such luck.

Late night listening:

Arthur Blythe - Blythe Spirit (Columbia). I can't remember the last time I spun this one. I had it in my mind that it was one of Blythe's lesser Columbia's - and it's not the equal of Illusions, but none of the others are - but it's really good.

Johnny Hodges/Earl Hines - Stride Right (Verve)

I love this, and I think when I was very young it helped me to "dig" Ornette Coleman, maybe because it has a more straight ahead swing done by Scott La Faro and Ed Blackwell. So it was easier to get into so called "Free Jazz" than with the other album I also had then "Crisis" , where they avoid straight ahead. Is it possible that "Ornette" is a lesser known or lesser popular Ornette Coleman album, since it´s not so much mentioned in jazz books.

Agreed .... the La Faro/Blackwell factor is of help here ....

Arthur Blythe - Light Blue: Arthur Blythe Plays Thelonious Monk (Columbia)

That's a good one, the instrumentation alone avoids too direct a comparison to Monk's recordings of the tunes.  One of the great bands, IMHO.  Has anyone here heard the guitarist Kelvin Bell's own Kelvinator stuff?

Np Andrew Hill - Eternal Spirit (Blue Note) 1989

sometimes this one gets lost in the shuffle but I like hearing Hutcherson w/Hill and Greg Osby is a nice addition.  His adventurous soloing mixed wth his lovely tone makes for satisfying listening.

Agreed. I got this on casette when it first cam out and looped it for weeks in the car. Very satisfying session, as well as a "is he or isn't he?" cover photo.

Wow, never saw that one before. I guess all of the tracks are in the Mosaic box ?

Yes. I bought my copy directly from Jim Neumann about 20 years ago. He had a bunch of them. I wonder if he ever got rid of all of them?
