Rok, I was comparing Nica's book to the 100 best jazz tunes of the 50's, and noticed there is an incredible, almost 1 on 1 correspondence to the two; practically all of the people in her book, are represented in best jazz tunes of the 50's.
I didn't know it, but both of yesterdays tunes, "Moanin" and "Along Came Betty" appear in the 100 best jazz tunes. That's unusual for 1 album to have 2 tunes in a best of compilation like this. KOB does not have even 1 cut in this book; whatever that means, I'll let others decide.
While yesterdays selections were coincidental, today I'm intentionally choosing two selections from that compilation. Miles 'Round Midnight' and Dave Brubeck, 'Take Five'.
