Disc 6 --  Black Satin for the win

[Peter Friedman]

Pulled this off the shelf to especially listen to pianist Wade Legge who plays on 3 tunes with Bags and Lucky Thompson, Wendell Marshall and Kenny Clarke

[Rabshakeh]

 One Too Many Salty Swift and Not Goodbye by Cecil Taylor

[JSngry]

The last Sonny Simmons in the pile for today, and yeah, best saved for last, I do believe!

[Bluesnik]

What a nice set. Guitar, organ and Ike Quebec. Great! Well at least the first 8 tracks. But it's all organ combo with guitar. Different players, but it's all the same.

[Neal Pomea]

Great music! Haven't stopped playing if for days! 

Note that cd 3 didn't have metadata, at least for me. Had to enter all info for iTunes and burning it to flac on my hard drive.

One of my very favorite Brazilian jazz discs. Just so Brazilian. . . and so jazz. And for members of the secret international organization of Maucha Adnet afficianados this is essential.

And I breezed through a shelf and saw this as a followup, which is an album I have definitely overlooked of late, and one that always impresses me:

Monday Michiru "Soulception" . . . 

Fits in perfectly after the Da Fonseca. Wow, this is one of three or four Monday cds that every time I hear it I think "This is my favorite!" It's certainly A favorite. She is really on form here.

Last week and earlier this week I explored some Stefon Harris from my collection. When these came out I listened to them and thought they were cool, then I set them aside for a while and revisiting them I'm more impressed. Great sequencing for albums, great arrangement, nice blend of jazz and latin and funkrock in varying mixes. Very good engineering and mastering as well. And Harris plays in unexpected ways.
Evolution

A Cloud of Red Dust

Ninetymiles

The Grand Unification Theory

If there is a flaw with this album, I can't find it.

P.S. Yahel on piano, tho.

Now playing:

[Peter Friedman]

Cover is misleading. There is no harp on this CD. The trio is piano , guitar, and bass.
