Part of a recent purchase at my local record store--hello, Michael Weiss! ;)

That's a good one - Griffin's band during those years was excellent!

Yeah, one look at the lineup was enough to sell me... plus I remembered previous quite-positive discussion of this record, either here or elsewhere.  Really glad I got it!

Bob Kindred - Nights of Boleros And Bluesiu-2.jpeg

Having never heard Kindred, I was never been willing to spend "Venus money" and certainly not "Venus SACD money" on these recordings. I see a copy for $14. Is it worth picking up? Then again, it is Amazon and there are CD-R Venus CDs on there.

Bob Kindred plays in the style of Zoot and other Prez  followers. I saw him live a couple of times and he was extremely impressive. He has recorded very little, and none that I have heard come close to how he sounded when I saw him live.

This album is very laid back. The music is nice, but nothing happens that I find exciting or memorable

I have a large collection of Venus CDs, and a very large majority of them would rate higher (for me) than this one.
