I relistened to most of the Monday Michuru as I was distracted listening last night, and had made a tube change.

Now in the quiet cool of the morning I'm enjoying a Bill Evans that I had not paid enough attention to when relaed, "Bill Evans in Norway, The Kongsberg Concert," Elemental Records cd.

This one with Eddie Gomez and Marty Morell is in very good stereo sound and a nice set of performances.

Warm morning, and it will be getting hot today. The beginning of the "uncomfortable" phose of listening upstairs. I'll get acclimated!

Starting the day with a second listen to one of the recent Mal Waldron releases, this time a trio recording.

"Stardust & Starlight Live at the Jazz Showcase" Resonance cd.

With Steve Rodby and Wilbur Campbell. Sonny Stitt appears on two selections.

"The Complete Woody Herman Decca, Mars and MGM Sessions (1943-1954)" Mosaic Records 7 disc box set, cd VI

I’m glad I am re-visiting this set, great music, great sound. Last disc to re-visit. I understand those who are not crazy about Woddy’s singing–I used to be among them. But I’ve fallen for his phrasing and his real jazz sensibility in vocals–to me they are closely alligned to his excellent clarinet and sax playing. And the microphones really bring out his tone very well.l.

Reply #28811 - Today at 11:27:46 Re-visiting this recent Resonance Records 2 cd reissue of Rahsaan Roland Kirk "Seek & Listen: Live at the Penthouse." I'm listening to disc 1 Was there anyone else really like Kirk? He was unique in several ways. And I think one of the few who really deserve to be called a genius.
