Another still, quiet morning. Looking forward to the weekly breakfast with my brother- and sister-in-law. The food isn't great, but the "visit" is.

Decided to continue revisiting Kirk--the man was a fascinating artist til the end. This is one of his final three, when he moved to Warner Bros. His tenor sound is beautiful on some of these tracks!

Rahsaan Roland Kirk "The Return Of The 5000 Lb. Man" 32 Jazz cd

Something different than Ms Walter's. . . and an album I've played for five decades now and I will NEVER tire of.

The title tune is one for the ages! The sound of this record was a revelation when it was new.

Rahsaan Roland Kirk "Volunteered Slavery" Rhino cd

Auditioning a new tube in the ZROCK3 (1957 GE 6880) and everything sounds great.

We're getting used to sleeping with the window unit going. . .which is good as the nights have been warmer than last year at this time. It's Saturday and the neighborhood is extra quiet! The system is shining--I changed a few settings on the DAC yesterday morning and they are settled in now and. the sound is glorious!

Another disc from "Enjoying the Ride," the 60th Anniversary box set from the Grateful Dead.

Boston Music Hall, Boston, MA (9/15/72) disc 2.

Rob Van Kreeveld "Together Alone" Baileo Music Productions cd

This is an interesting cd from a pianist from the Netherlands I discovered backing Yvonne Walter on her Coltrane Ballads cd. A great touch, and intriguing trio arrangements.

I thought it interesting that he has a sister release called "Alone Together". . . I have that one on the way.

My wife decided to be up early and listen with me on this somewhat stuff morning.

Started off with Eliane Elias "Time and Again" on Candid cd . . . the new "innovation" here is many more mult-tracked Elias voices to form a chorus . . . interesting. . .she's done this before but more prevalent here. Also, all tunes are originals by Elias and her husband Marc Johnson.

And then on to Ruby Braff "For the Last Time" Arbors Jazz 2 cd, disc 2. Sad to know this was his last recorded performance, but it's a good one--Scott Hamilton was a great front line partner for him, and John Bunch is a fine pianist.

An excellent album spoiled a bit by the "loudness/compression" mastering.

After enjoying the Blu-Spec CD2 of this release a few times recently I realized this was one of the few Miles releases i didn't have in the LP facsimile versions that Sony put out so I ordered, and received, this SBM version, Sony SRCS 9323~4.

I like the sound of this series of discs, and in listening they bring me a warm nostalgic feeling of when I was first really into collecting Japanese releases.

Pulled a random disc off the shelves from my row of Blue Note 85th Anniversary discs from Universal Japan, and pulled out this one: the Wayne Shorter "Speak No Evil" SHM-SACD
