Now spinning disc 2 of this release. I sent a copy of this to my best friend as part of a package for his birthday (yesterday was his 66th) as I really like it and I am revisiting it again. . . I find this very involving. . . I get sucked right into the performances.

It seems odd still to wake up and it's warmer. Decided to start the day with a favorite. Discussing this album elsewhere led me to locate it on the shelves and replay it.

I think it's masterful. Slim at the height of his powers as an instrumentalist and of course as a vocalist. The personality and the verve of this music makes me glad to be awake and alive and attentive.

"How High th Moon" is amazing here. I found myself imagining a nice big bowl of potato salad.

Moving from one silly odd recording to (IMO) another.

Sun Ra: Space Is The Place (Music From The Original Soundtrack) 4 disc set (2 cds, DVD, Blu-ray) cd 2

I bought this set when released and have hardly listened to it. My interest in Sun Ra has waned though I have continuing collecting. . . which is silly. . . sound here is certainly improved on what was released before. One of these days I need to watch the American Masters on Sun Ra, and re-watch "Space is the Place."

Another warm morning! Slept well and decided to start the day off with a cd I found yesterday mixed in with my wife's cds: "Americans in Holland--The Great Thirties, Vol. 1" on Timeless cd.

A great collection of obscure live tracks from jazz greats Louis Armstrong and His Hot Harlem Band, The Boswell Sisters, Coleman Hawkins, and Benny Carter. Sound on many of these is not that great at all but. . . how could I resist playing "I'll be Glad When You're Ded You Rascal You"?

I've spun Alice Coltrane's Impulse recordings so often but have neglected her Warner Bros. which are of deep interest as well.

Now spinning disc 2 of 1 of this collection.

Alice Coltrane Eternal Spiritual: The Complete Warner Bros. Studio Recordings"

Her organ sound! Part violin from India, part Jan Hammer synthesizer, part other things, all Alice.

Reply #28495 - 03/10/26 at 17:11:47 Okay, this is a little weird, in a dream last night I remember cellos, and my Dad. The cello was one of his favorite instruments, and so I plucked this from the shelf to listen to, Weilen Kuijken and Jordi Savall performing Sieur de Sainte-Colombe. These SACDs sound wonderful. (And yes, they are not cellos!)

Reply #28499 - Yesterday at 13:29:05 As my youngest brother sang a few of these songs at the services our father led in his final years I sent him a copy of this cd and he told me he really enjoys it. I'm re-visiting it, it is a very good arrangement and interpretation of the Ellington work. Høybye Pedersen "Duke Ellington's Sacred Concert"
