I like this less than other Boss Brass records, partly because of Woods' presence. He's a great musician, but I wonder whether the others felt they had to play up to him.

Lenny McBrowne and the 4 Souls - Eastern Light 

First time I'd heard of or heard this one. Just goes to show that there is always more out there.

Most definitely!  That opens the door to...

Re: Charlie Barnet & Benny Goodman

What is this? A collection of singles or of 10"s? If the latter what were they? I am struggling to identify them.

Arent you not familiar with the CAPITOL 15 volume series " Jazz Classics"?

If you are interested I can scan the liner of that LP These are originals from 1948 so it might be from 78s, EP's and 10" sources. Highly interesting material- My favorite is the composition " Claude  Reigns".

I have it on my 'to listen' list.  A group of players that I had almost never heard of (the 4 Souls, not the sidemen here).

Now on to this one:

George Lewis – In Hi-Fi

A lot of New Orleans R&B bounce in the sound on this one, for once.

I'm not. But I am interested if it isn't too much trouble. Scant information out there...

A rare Saturday night chance to listen a little.

Tom Harrell “Colors of a Dream” High Note cd.

The tracks with the two bassists are phenomenal imo.

Bass – Esperanza Spalding, Ugonna Okegwo
Drums – Johnathan Blake
Tenor Saxophone – Wayne Escoffery
Trumpet, Flugelhorn – Tom Harrell
Vocals – Esperanza Spalding

Emily Remler “Firefly” Concord Records

Great guitar work with perfect accompaniment. This woman was taken from us way way way too early.

I believe a lot of this material (15 volumes) was released on Mosaic CAPITOL JAZZ SESSIONS 12-CD set,
