I love to see that you spin Fritz Pauer, really astonishing for a young guy from the states to even know about him ! 
So I like to tell you that he was my mentor, there were times we met every night, when not playing then just hangin´out  and I wouldn´t know about music what I know now, without his help and kind support. And I wouldn´t have had bookings at age of 18+ if he would not had let me sit in. 

Yes, Pauer's music is terrific -- and it's wonderful to hear that he was such a friendly person.

How´s Herbie Hancock-Ron Carter-Tony Williams ? As a freak of VSOP when it happened I had all of it, but I was not aware of a trio record. How does Williams sound on it ? If it´s not a record where the drums is only in the background as happens with many studio albums, I would dare to buy it. 

I really like Third Plane.  Tony's definitely not "in the background" -- although it's Ron's album, so he's featured a bit more prominently.

Jason Marsalis with Warren Wolf, Live at the 2023 New Orleans Jazz and Heritage Festival (Munck)

[HutchFan]

Now playing:

Joanne Brackeen - Invitation (Black Lion; originally released on Freedom)
with Clint Houston & Billy Hart, rec. 1976

This trio was Stan Getz's rhythm section at the time.  You can tell they've been playing together regularly -- because they are locked in.  It's exciting, kick-ass music-making.
