So, What Are You Listening To NOW?

Chet Baker “Baby Breeze” Limelight/Verve cd.

This one again as I didn’t get to the alternate and additional tracks yesterday.

Some great Chet singing here–especially the two tracks just backed by Kenny Burrell. What Kenny could do. . .he was such a master.

It may well be too early for this music, especially as the new SEWE300B amp has really bloomed lately and is sounding so atmospheric and this music is. . . eerie to say the least, full of resonant spacey effects. But it suits today well enough!

Julian Priester Keep Swingin’ Riverside/OJC cd.

 

Looking at that band lineup you know it’s going to be great, and it is. Julian and Jimmy blend so well together with their rich tones.

How is this one? 

Liked it even more my second time through, but I’m already partisan to DJA’s Brookmeyer-lineage sound. Interesting and eclectic choice of inspirational figures for each composition. Would love to play the Ellington tribute on the radio at some point, but it clocks in at 30 minutes… maybe for some slow programming day over the holidays.
