gmonahan Posted January 25, 2021 Report Share Posted January 25, 2021 Couldn't find a cover photo that would fit in the small dimensions allowed, but I've been listening to "Last Night When We Were Young: The Ballad Album" that was put together by pianist Fred Hersch in '94 as an AIDS benefit. Phil Woods plays clarinet on one track ("Adios Nonino"). It's very pretty. I don't think I have Woods playing clarinet anywhere else. gregmo Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Justin V Posted January 25, 2021 Report Share Posted January 25, 2021 Some more Benny Golson, via his arrangements on Brass Shout. The reissue pairing it with The Aztec Suite is essential Art Farmer, IMO. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

EKE BBB Posted January 26, 2021 Report Share Posted January 26, 2021 Listening to Fats Waller home recordings with Eubie Blake, JPJ, The Lion... originally issued as Ristic 22 & 23 with restoration by the great John R. T. Davies, and recently reissued for the first time on CD by Sounds of Yesteryear. This is music of the utmost importance, from an historical perspective, and soooo beautiful.... but the work done by the latter label is barely professional from a technical point of view, and the presentation so 'ugly', that I would gladly ask for a refund and stick to the cd-burn I received from a fellow stride piano collector many moons ago.

JSngry Posted January 26, 2021 Author Report Share Posted January 26, 2021 I want to see the Davis operas performed, not just presented. It's "different" for me, to say the least, but I could see really enjoy getting immersed in it live. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

jazzbo Posted January 26, 2021 Report Share Posted January 26, 2021 Listening to the '97 SBM Sony LP facsimile cd of this Miles Davis release. I like the sound better on this than on the disc in the Complete Columbia Album set. . . but of course I can't just sell or give away that disc, it's part of an 80 disc set. The dilemnas of a collector. . . I know them well. Miles Davis "You're Under Arrest" Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

jazzbo Posted January 26, 2021 Report Share Posted January 26, 2021 Piri "Voces Querem Mate" This Brazilian trio of singers and instrumentalists is a sunny blast of upbeat beauty for a gray cold day. Reminding me a lot of the Tamba 3 and Tamba 4, with a bit more lushness of arrangements and of course more voices. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
