So it is more of a "jazzy" compilation than a jazz one.  Still, this Capitol collection has one track by The Latin Jazz Sextet featuring Eric Dolphy as well as selections by jazz musicians like Laurindo Almeida and Dick Hyman.  Jack Costanzo, of course, is all over this disc, both as a leader and sideman.

The 1955 Newport stuff is...Baker sounds very high and/ or very nervous. The music gets better (or at least the crowd gets rowdier...) as they add more players, but he does not. And to think that the next day(?) was when Miles made his "comeback" appearance!

The rest of the record is fine, though.

 "Albare Plays Jobim"

albare-plays-jobim-1024x1024.jpg

Guitarist and composer, Albare was born in Morocco and grew up in Israel and France. Although he joined at age 8 the Music Conservatory in his hometown in Israel for 2 years, his musical development was completely self-taught. These days, as Albare has lost his central vision faculties due to an genetic illness, his playing is completely by ear.

In 1972 Albare discovered the sound of Jobim while watching Marcel Camus’s cult film, Orpheus Negro. The haunting melodies and unique compositions left a profound impression on the young guitarist and inspired Albare to study and play the melodic style for which he is now known for.

This disc reminds me of Wes Montgomery's A&M recordings. Albare  has a Wes sound (maybe he uses his thumb?) I like this.
