Stylish design, for sure. ... Don't think I've ever seen that before.  Thx for sharing.

Yes, that's a cool cover--when Denon owned Savoy Records they released a cd with that cover.

❤❤❤ !!!

This volume in the series is great--all either Commodore Records sides (I have all three of the Mosaic Records LP sets) or V-DISCS and every performance features Pee Wee Russell as a band member, and that's a great thing, plus lots of ERNIE CACERES!

Coincidentally, I have that LP queued up for listening later tonight.  It's one of the albums in my 80s jazz survey/blog -- but I didn't include any commentary when I posted it.  (Too tired. Running behind at work. Blah, blah, blah.)

So I need to listen again for inspiration before writing up my impressions. 

Any insights that you'd like to offer?  I'd be happy to quote you.

It was only my first listen, inspired by a mix of your blog and the recent discussion of mainstream swing. I need to listen to it more, because it's absolutely great. Impressive that it doesn't get samey at all; there's so much to listen for. Obviously, Ed Bickert is a treat, but the little subtle twists in the tenor playing are great too.
