Great stuff

Miroslav Vitous – Majesty Music

A bit like Bobby McFerrin and D'Angelo, this record is fascinating when viewed as a clear bridge between the fusion and jazz funk of the early 70s and the chill out music of the 1990s and early 2000s. Impossible not to hear the latter from a 2024 viewpoint.

Duke Ellington “Midnight in Paris” HDTT cdr of a Columbia reel-to-reel

 

 

This one grows on me over the years. I suspect a high Strayhorn arranging content on this one. . . though Duke may have loved Paris as Billy and he may have done quite a few of the arrangements.

Great Columbia sound!

Does that label really translate as thin biscuit? I sincerely hope so

I don't speak Portuguese, so I can't say.  But it makes sense!

Listening to Disc "C." Sound was good on these radio transcriptions.

Great set—picked up at my local record store a few years back.

Right now:
