That is an excellent photographic portrait of the artist as an experienced man.  I'd say the photographer merits a mention if you have that info handy, soulpope.

Now playing:

Ahmad Jamal covering both Billy Joel and Steely Dan on this 1978 album?!?!  My day just got a whole lot better!

My favorite Zoot Sims recording. 

I also like this record very much. But some of the best Zoot Sims I heard on the Prestige Album Tenor Enclave. 

And if you want to hear some really rare Zoot Sims, I´d recommend the set he did with the Bud Powell Trio in Paris in the early 60´s. 

You can find it as Bud Powell at the Blue Note Cafe, the label is ESP Disk. 

Zoot Plays very fine versions of "Takin a Chance of Love", "Groovin High" and "Bud´s Blues"...….. 

Here: This is the Album cover of the CD where Zoot Sims Plays with Bud !

Brings some great memories back. I heard it first on Radio when it was brand new. We had a Wonderful hour of jazz Weekly on Saturday "Jazz Shop" About new records. And this one was something Special when it came out in 1977.

Yesterday this received several spins, the last with my conga drum students who understood what makes the groove on these tracks so great.  A must for all fans of Armando Peraza!

My friendship with this album has blossomed into a full-blown love affair.  I remember listening to it several times and liking it when I bought it in January of last year.  It was in the month leading up to my daughter's birth, so maybe I was too distracted to realize how great this album is.

That's on my to-get list. Garrick is wonderful.

 

 

NP:

Bob Wilber & Kenny Davern - Soprano Summit (World Jazz)
I'm playing the CD version of this music, which compiles their first two LPs (less a couple tracks).

Gosh yes. VERY scary. What is that dude thinking?!?!?

I've busted my ass many times on slick rocks. But never while holding a baby!
