Great links on this page guys, thanks.
With nearly 200 pages, I’ve got some catching up to do.
O-so Dorothy didn’t grow on you? I gave it another whirl(had to dig deep to find her) and like it a little more this time. It’s an album to mix things up, when doing a "straight ahead" session.
Having not heard Sonny before, I checked who played guitar on his albums. Barney Kessel, Tal Farlow, Joe Pass...I’m sure there’s more.
I’m adding him to my list. Great pick O...thanks.
This is why I will NEVER be able to stop collecting Jazz. Endless discovery and reason to keep my bin diving jumpsuit ready!
Sonny did a cover of "Angel Eyes." You may already have Ella’s version. If not, I strongly recommend you check out a particular version.
"Let No Man Write My Epitaph" is the soundtrack to a 1961 movie. Great movie by the way. This album is just Ella and piano. Seek out the MONO LP if you can.
One of those records, once the non believers hear, they understand what the fuss is all about. Serious music for your cart/phono stage.
My CD buying stopped in the 90’s, and its a modest collection of the usual suspects, similar to the DVD Jazz Icons collection. Complete with those "outakes/alternate version" discs...and Grant Green!
I noticed Lionel Hampton is one of the "Icon,selections." I played my CD with "Flying Home." 17:04 minutes at a volume to get the tubes cookin’
Haven’t found a clean copy of this gem...yet.
This morning with coffee-Tal Farlow peeling the frets off his guitar on a Concord label promo album.
