jazzbo Posted September 12 Report Posted September 12 A cool, still morning. One of “our” owls is making his distinctive call in the wooded side lot we have. I love to hear these birds! Fiona the dachshund is a bit fiesty, but indicates she’ll settle down soon. As I listen I’m finishing up selecting about 35 (mostly Japanese Blue Note) cds for sale. I need the space and new versions have come in or will be soon arriving from Japan. Joe Lovano “Bird Song” Blue Note cd This is a session I really enjoy–the two drummers are really well arranged and add a special sauce to this. And the focus on Parker material is successful and seems innovative. The lovely Ms Spalding sounds great here too–her bass is deep sounding and her playing precise. Joe Lovano, Saxophones James Weidman, Piano Esperanza Spalding, Bass Otis Brown III, Drums Francisco Mela, Drums Quote

Nov. 20, 1976 - 👍 Recording quality could have been better, but it's still good. The Herd alone tracks are really good; so too are the Getz tracks - Blue Serge and Blue Getz Blues. Speaking of Getz Now - discs 2 & 3 Quote
HutchFan Posted September 12 Report Posted September 12 Next up: Pat Martino - We'll Be Together Again (Muse/Savoy, rec. 1976) Duets with Gil Goldstein Quote

This kind of BB swing is missing today. Quote
