It takes a lot of courage to match that jacket with that shirt, and even more smarts to know that the ascot will pull it all together somehow.

BEST CUTS: TRACK TWO's ON EACH SIDE (the ones w. george duke coincendently)

George was on most of her albums back then.

Her daughter's recent album is pretty good. She sounds a lot like Flora on a few cuts, too.

Many Bodies One Mind

Original Jazz Classics LP reissue - flawless pressing.

Japanese LP reissue.

Newborn is a monster pianist on these! 

Each time I listen to a Contemporary label LP I can't help but think how much better, more natural they sound like all the Rudy Van Gelder recordings.

Yes. So true. On both counts. :)

@HutchFan: I also like Disk 1 more than Disk 2. Mostly because the sittin in of Donald Byrd is a painful experience, since Donald Byrd had lost all his chops, he even sounds worse than Miles after is 5 or 6 years Hiatus when he first tried to pick up the trumpet again…...

But Sonny and the Group with Tony Williams is superb. One of my favourite versions of "Don´t stop the carneval"

Yep, I agree. It's an uneven album. 

But those first three cuts: "Don't Stop the Carnival" and "Silver City" and "Autumn Nocturne."  Yowza!

Ann Burton - Ballads & Burton

glad I finally picked this up after seeing it so often in stores... I am not a big fan of vocal jazz normally but this one really works for me
