So, What Are You Listening To NOW?

Jackie McLean “Jackie’s Bag” Blue Note Japan RVG SHM-CD

On to something else. . . hard bop and one of the appearances of the “gone too soon” Tina Brooks.

The opening track, “Quadrangle,” seems an early response to the Ornette Coleman Quartet with some wonderful drumming from Philly Joe Jones.

Dave Weckl – Heads Up

A bunch of players that I don't necessarily care about and a very dated sound, but it is still a good record. 

Everything about it just pops.

Excellent Latin-Jazz, I'd say.   I'm a big fan of Bill O'Connell.
