A thunderstorm woke us up and I for one had a hard time going back to sleep so I got up to do some listening.

This solo piano disc (like the other three in the series on Adventure Music) is fascinating and in great sound and perfect for this time of the day/night. Great selections as well--a few originals and well chosen pieces.

Benjamin Taubkin, "Piano Masters Series, Vol. 1"

Followed by

Charles Mingus "Statements" Studio Songs cd

Charlie Mingus - bass
Eddie Preston - trumpet
Charles McPherson - alto sax
Bobby Jones - tenor sax
Jaki Byard - piano
Dannie Richmond - drums

Reply #27358 - Yesterday at 20:59:38 Bill Evans "Some Other Time: The Lost Session From The Black Forest" Resonance 2 cd set, disc 1 A great disc in many ways but for me Eddie Gomez steals the show. Sound so good it makes you wonder how this could have remained "lost" so long.

Reply #27360 - Today at 10:24:36 Starting off a deliciously cool morning with some cool and sophisticated music . . . sounding so so good.

Bob Dylan "Time Out of Mind" Sony Blu-Spec CD2

This is such an amazing, powerful album. The new remix is good, but I find that I prefer the original mix--maybe because I have had it so long, but maybe because the swampy density of the sound just seems appropriate for the material. I'll never tire of this work--the songs, the sequencing, the mood.

Well, my heart’s in the Highlands at the break of day

Over the hills and far away

There’s a way to get there and I’ll figure it out somehow

But I’m already there in my mind

And that’s good enough for now
