Three mono LPs:

Gerald Wilson - Moment of Truth (Pacific Jazz)

Duke Ellington - One Night Stand At the Steel Pier July, 1964 (Joyce). A good performance, but the tape was running too fast when transferred; all the music is a half step too high.

George Shearing - In Hi Fi (MGM). I have expressed my reservations about Mr. Shearing's improvising in another thread, but it seems strange that he's no longer with us.

Elliot Lawrence 'Big Band Sound' (Fantasy, mono, red wax)

R-150-2258784-1272824774.jpeg

Elliot Lawrence knew how to pick is sidemen. Bernie Glow, Eddie Bert, Gene Quill, Al Cohn are among those present on this one.

Indeed! Very fond of The Elliot Lawrence Orchestra Plays Gerry Mulligan Arrangements.

45 RPM night at the jeffcrom house. Started out with some jazz:

Horace Silver Quintet with Bill Henderson - Senor Blues/Tippin' (Blue Note)

Bill Henderson with The Jimmy Smith Trio - Ain't No Use/Angel Eyes (Blue Note)

Leo Parker - Low Brown/Parker's Pals (Blue Note)

Dexter Gordon - Isn't She Lovely (Columbia promo)

Then some Caribbean records:

Conjunto Matamoros - Camaron/Mari-juana (!) (RCA Victor) (Cuban)

The Mighty Zandolie - Goat Thief/Stickman (National) (Trinidadian calypso on a Trinidadian label)

Crystalites - Call Me Trinity/Trinity Version (Crystal) (Reggae on a Jamaican label)

On to some Louisiana swamp blues by Slim Harpo on Excello:

Baby Scratch My Back/I'm Gonna Miss You

Little Queen Bee/I Need Money

I'm Your Bread Maker, Baby/Loving You

Then a little tribute to the late Eddie Kirkland. These two records, from the 1960's and 1980's respectively, represent Mr. Kirkland performing for his natural audience, rather than for white blues fans.

I Need You Baby/I Must Have Done Somebody Wrong (Fortune)

Pickin' Up the Pieces/Disco Mary (Fantastic)

Ended the evening with some varied R & B:

James Carr - That's What I Want to Know/You've Got My Mind Messed Up (Goldwax)

Denise LaSalle - Keep It Coming/Trapped By a Thing Called Called Love (Westbound)

Clarence Carter - Sixty Minute Man/Mother-In-Law (Fame)

Great stuff - I'll probably spin some more 45s tomorrow night.
