An early trio recording by the man who would become Peter Nero shortly thereafter.

“Bernie Nerow Trio” Mode/Muzak Records Japan lp facsimile cd.

Like all these Muzak reissues the remastered sound is wonderful.

Sorry to ask an idiotic question but is "Muzak" the same company as the piped music company of historic fame?

[jazzbo]

No, it's a label that issues Japanese releases of select jazz titles, as far as I can tell a legitimate one--but I can't say that with certainty. I don't know what equipment they use, but I would like to see more reissues and issues sounding this good. They also are well-packaged.

Good Question. It definitely has Bob Brookmeyer. Lord was not helpful, though I did not  spend a huge amount of time going through it.

The music and audio quality were both very good in my opinion.

[JSngry]

That was a good group!

Cool morning, quiet and calm. Lots of the leaves are gone, already. Sigh.

I'm really pleased I bought that. The extra material is very worthwhile

Agreed.

Don Bagley “The Soft Touch” Dot/Blue Moon cd

Bass – Don Bagley
Drums – Shelly Manne
Flute, Alto Flute, Piccolo Flute – Paul Horn
French Horn – Tommy Loy
Piano – Jimmy Rowles

 

I originally bought this years ago because Jimmy Rowles was in the piano chair. A good reason! But I’ve learned to really like the album, and it led me to buy the other two Bagley leader dates.
