That's one of the Uptown projects I worked on without any credit.

Chuck, I actually thought of you while listening to it.  Do you ever intend to reissue your Thompson release?  

I am on an Uptown kick after the Thonpson and Gryce:

It's a delight to hear Teddy Kotick recorded so well.  I've had this for years and am just getting around to it.  I've liked what I've heard of Monterose with Rene Thomas and Dorham, so it's about time I pulled this one out.

How is this one? He's got pretty prolific and I'm struggling to keep up, but a team up with Tomeka Reid is always worth looking up.

It is excellent.  You should like this if you liked The Mouser on Relative Pitch.  Rempis's playing on this is reminiscent of Ornette Coleman in places.  Tomeka Reid's involvement in a session draws my interest as well.

The Lucky Thompson I issued was leased from a Spanish company called Ensayo. It is now on Amazon and looks like this

Wow. I keep returning to this and just being transported.

Thanks. I liked The Mouser a whole lot, so I'll definitely check this out.

Cool!  Thanks.

Now:

I really like this record.  Echoes of Randy Weston -- but not in a negative, copy-cat way.

I was reminded to listen to this one after encountering Lucky Thompson on a Bird session from 1946 earlier today.  I hadn't listened to it in years.  I'll be spending more time with it for sure.

👍👍👍!!!

I have been ripping my Uptown releases to lossless.  This one crackles with energy.  Bird lives.

It's a good 'un!  Didn't realize that I'd get some Woody Shaw in the bargain.
