Just a simple question

This thread is a "big mixed bag" have nothing against that but

was there ever a special "big band" thread created at "Organissimo"?

I bought a copy of that yesterday, same Insta post as inspiration perhaps

[Teasing the Korean]

Mel Torme - That's All (Columbia, stereo)

with a bunch of bonus tracks. 

Mel gets the Columbia 30th-Street studio reverb on his voice, like Tony, Johnny, Andy, and Eydie.

Almost certainly.  I didn't know about it until I saw it.

It's good. I was very impressed. At times it is close to an Ahmed Abdul-Malik thing. But it is quite varied in choice of tunes.

Currently listening to the McKenzie and Condon’s Chicagoans sides on loop whilst doing washing up.

This was intended as a joke, but I popped into Rough Trade today during an office fire drill to see the second hand racks (and I mean display racks, not the Sale boxes) full of Dixieland.

They'd obviously bought a job lot of old jazz from somewhere. The swing comps and west coast stuff (some quite significant records in the latter category) were stuck into the sale box, but the Dixieland went on the racks.

I have to be in the (very!) right mood, but I've been known occasionally to listen to the FF+2!

I recently got this one, mostly for Rosolino, but I like Bob Burgess's trombone on it too. And the sound is good.

I keep expecting my kids (6+3) to like that stuff more than they do.

That's about the right age. I have to feel like I'm 3 or 6 to like them......which I do on rare occasions!!
