JSngry Posted August 30, 2019 Author Report Posted August 30, 2019 I once heard "A Smooth One" in a 70s prono movie. It elevated the scene, believe me. Quote
JSngry Posted August 30, 2019 Author Report Posted August 30, 2019 Welcome to The Home Of Happy Headphones, my name is Hal, and I'll be your Session Facilitator. It's a pretty good record. Quote

duaneiac Posted August 30, 2019 Report Posted August 30, 2019 Disc 4 & 5. Very much a mixed bag. I enjoyed Disc 4 ,which contains her Latin album and her Mancini songbook album. Disc 5, however, is another matter. It is made up of albums consisting of covers of pop tunes of the day. It's painful to hear the glorious instrument that was Ms. Vaughan's voice used on such material as "I Know A Place", "Everybody Loves Somebody" and "One, Two, Three" (yes, the very same Tommy James & the Shondells hit). Even "Waltz For Debbie", one of my favorite tunes, gets turned into dreck here. Quote
JSngry Posted August 30, 2019 Author Report Posted August 30, 2019 I like this guy, for some reason. Maybe it's the lack of "New York" in his playing. Quote

I have another excellent record from this same group but with a different bass player: Broken Wing from the JiP series. It has a lovely Shorter song, Beatiful Eyes. Quote
duaneiac Posted August 31, 2019 Report Posted August 31, 2019 Crappy pic, so here's an unrelated pic which came up as a search result. I assume that is Pat Martino (who does not appear on this CD) with Mr. Jackson. Quote
