Ratzo Harris on that Werner is solid. Really enjoy that album. Be interested in what you think about Zen House. One of my favorites of the numerous pairings of Hellborg and Lane. If you haven't listen to Temporal Analogues of Paradise...

I am really enjoying the Kenny Werner, interesting and well done arrangements of well known standards and everybody's playing is excellent. I love what he does with Blue Train and Fall. I wish I had picked it up earlier.

As for the Zen House I went into it blind based on a friends recommendation and I love it. I will definitely check out Temporal Analogues of Paradise based on your recommendation.

Thanks.

Two little pieces of trivia:

1) I bought the Joe Henderson Milestone box cheap, and the track "Power To The People", originally from the album "Black Narcissus", was defective. I thought I could just replace the track with a downloaded version from eMusic. Well, eMusic doesn't have the album, and neither do iTunes or Amazon downloads. :angry:

2) The Track "Power To The People" is on the album "Black Narcissus," and the track "Black Narcissus" is on the album "Power To The People."

With regard to the Sackville releases available on E-Music, I can strongly recommend Ben & Buck. I bought the CD up in Canada years ago and always thought very highly of it. Nothing earth shattering, just a consistently well done set of music.

Up over and out.

Tommy Flanagan - Confirmation

David Murray - Now is Another Time

David Murray/Dave Burrell - Windward Passages (this appears to have no direct connection with Burrell's original Windward Passages)

Red Garland - Rojo

Red Garland - Manteca

Fathead Newman - Diamondhead

Jim Hall - Jazzpar Quartet + 4

Willis Jackson - Gravy

Hank Jones - Compassion (Black and Blue)

I've tried to add all the Definitive Black and Blue titles to a list (the jazz, not the blues), not sure how to link to it.

The list is Black and Blue under my nickname Emusic-ejp

There are 32 titles, though this isn't everything by Black and Blue. I know at least one Cat Anderson is missing. But there is some great stuff, and I will try to grab them all before too long.

Bob Brookmeyer - Live at Sandy's

Desert island disc for me. Deep, swingin' playing, great writing . . . TEXTBOOK example of how to arrange creatively for a jazz quartet . . . a LOT of chance taking but in a quiet, accessible way . . . Michael Moore at the very top of his form . . . and a window into what might have happened if Philly Joe had left the Bill Evans Trio instead of Michael Moore.

For those not yet aware, it looks like the entire David Murray DIW catalog is now available.

This includes both "Shakill's" albums - some of his best stuff.

If you like that, you should definitely DL "Live at Raji's". A great live album - start to finish.

As we speak, I'm listening to a pretty nice set from Jack Sheldon. It's called, Playing For Change. Nothing fancy. Just a nice mix. Some pretty fair sidekicks on board as those things go; Jerry Dodgion, Barry Harris, Rufus Reid and Ben Riley. Recommended.

Up over and out.

Thanks, BFRank, but that one "Live at Raji's" doesn't seem to be available...

Huh. How 'bout that. It used to be there.

I liked it so much, I ended up grabbing the CD.
