George Girard and His New Orleans Five (Imperial 10") A really nice album from 1954 and 55. I can't find a picture online, and no discographer seems to know who is on this on, besides the brilliant, ill-fated trumpeter himself. Lord thinks it might be Raymond Burke on clarinet, but it ain't. It sounds like the great Harry Shields to me, and on one track Girard encourages "Brother Harold" before the reed solo.

Another spin of this great little record.

And once again. Still can't find a cover pic.

Dizzy Gillespie 'For Musicians Only' (Verve France)

Stan_Getz_-_For_Musicians_Only.jpg

When I was young I used to think the album was spoilt by the hectic tempos. Now I thoroughly enjoy it. Those giants can handle it! - which is what the album title is perhaps suggesting.

It's a Mean Old World (SFCRP - Southern Folk Culture Revival Project). 1966-72 recordings by Johnny Shines, Hazel & Alice, Macon, Georgia's Rev. Pearly Brown, etc.

As a teenager, I ran across Rev. Brown on the streets of Macon. I was kind of scared of him. I wish I had talked to him.

Duke Pearson - Jolly Ole Soul (BN Liberty blue and white label). An odd choice for March, I know, but I just found this record yesterday. I'm amazed that there are now two versions of "The Little Drummer Boy" that I actually like - the other is a Steve Coleman/Marvin "Smitty" Smith duet.

Pat Metheny Group - Live in Concert (ECM). A promo-only 1977 record - never officially released to the public, although the internets tell me that Jazz Door pirated this one. I seldom listen to Metheny, but Larry Kart's thread (and his Metheny interview, which I read today) made me want to hear this. And okay, I don't need to hear any more Metheny for awhile.
