So, What Are You Listening To NOW?

John Coltrane and Johnny Hartman on a Verve hybrid cd/sacd. The interesting aspect, as Bresna reminded me, is that the disk has both the mono and the stereo mixes.

Session O.  This pandemic would be much more miserable without Mosaics like this.

The Paich album led me to finally rip this fine octet session that I hadn't heard in years.  Fagerquist had tone! I think the Terry Pollard album with Fagerquist is next:

Now playing:

[Dub Modal]

Cello & drums with Blythe's alto sax. There's so much in Blythe's playing and this album is outstanding as a show case of that. 

[kh1958]

Hank Mobley in Holland (Dutch Jazz Archive)

[Rabshakeh]

Time Berne's Snakeoil - You've Been Watching Me (2018, ECM)

Ferreira's guitar really makes this one, but it's a very good showing all round.

I never get why this one isn't considered one of the basic top ten introductory jazz albums. 

It's got everything a 60s hard bop album needs, and Wynton Kelly in particular is absolutely fantastic. 

[Gheorghe]

Dave Liebman´s Lookout Farm live in Hamburg 1975

[jazzcorner]

[Peter Friedman]

Early small group sessions that features some of the best Lester Young solos out there.

It is missing a saxophone.

Ellington at Newport (Complete)
Discs 1 & 2

It's a gas to hear how things actually went down -- unedited -- on that historic day.

Hooray for Duke and hooray for the "Hero of Newport," Paul Gonsalves !!!

I've always thought that it was never quite the sum of its considerable parts.  Maybe I need to revisit too
