Gil Evans & the Monday Night Orchestra - Live at Sweet Basil (Evidence)

The late euvre of Gil Evans is still rather underappreciated ....

Eliane Elias "Impulsive--Eliane Elias, Bob Brookmeyer & the Danish Radio Jazz Orchestra play the music of Eliane Elias"

Saw the cover and had to pop this in. It has all the right elements for this morning. . . great sound, great playing and interesting compositions.

Ok kids, we have songs again. Probably not gonna be on the radioboxes, but that's ok, this is good stuff, a two-way street between tomorrow and today, musically and lyrically.

Songs again!

Ok, let's imagine a parallel past where Gil Evans and Phillip Glass had worked together and Miles was able to morph his way with slow lines and bracing intervals into soprano/alto classical vocals...or even better, don't bother imagining anything, there's a record right here for anybody to hear.

I had a hankering to hear "Lonely Fire." And it sounds best on LP so I got out my OG 2 LP set.
