Paul Desmond`s cover of Jobim`s "Wave" from the Paul Desmond Quartet Live in 1975. Great record with Ed Bickert and Don Thompson (on bass plus he recorded the concert).

Also, many versions of Deep Purple`s "Space Truckin" -- some with strange Glenn Hughes interludes, but most with Ian Gillan.

Night Images from:The Gary McFarland Orchestra -- Special Guest Soloist: Bill Evans. Love how the opening and closing mirror each other. I would not call McFarland a great vibe player, but he wrote very good arrangements here that highlights his tastefulness.

Bemsha Swing-- The Thelonious Monk Trio. I'm driving in my car and hear on the radio what I presume is a live Monk version of Bemsha Swing: the piano is out of tune and tinny, the sound is terrible and I think I hear people in the audience talking. But the music is terrific-- there's extraordinary interaction between Monk and the drummer. So when I get to my office I check out the playlist on

KJAZZ's website and discover that it's not a live recording it's from the Prestige release called just "Thelonious Monk Trio" and the drummer is Max Roach. The piano is out of tune and badly recorded but what I thought was noise from the audience is Monk doing his vocalizing.

This is a record that gets no love from critics but I bought it anyway and it's my favorite Monk trio date. (Actually it's 3 dates, 2 with Blakey and one with Roach.

Sam Montgomery: "Where the Sweet Old Oranges Grow" from The Slide Guitar - Bottles, Knives & Steel Vol. 2 (Columbia/Legacy)

A perfect record - Montgomery plays and sings the tune as if he has all the time in the world to play it. And it only took 50+ years for it to be released.
