This morning is nice and cool and Fiona is feeling feisty. We bobbed along around “the block” with a flashlight even before the songbirds were talking. This is a wonderful time of year.
Starting off with a new arrival:
Cannonball Adderley “POPPIN’ IN PARIS: LIVE AT L’OLYMPIA 1972” Elemental Music cd
This one is all about George Duke so far!
We should have had Cannonball much longer!
Followed by
Nat King Cole “Live At The Blue Note Chicago” Iconic 2 cd set
Culled from TEN HOURS of recordings, this two cd set is great fun for Cole fans. Sound is decent enough. John Collins and Lee Young on board–which are definitely factors that made me make sure to corner a copy of this and luckily it wasn’t too hard.
Starting a cool morning off with another interesting session Tom Harrell participated in, with a sort of Spanish tinge of Weather Report like fusion, led by guitarist Tarres.
Fernando Tarres featuring Tom Harrell and Arida Conta and the Sirius String Quartet “Secret Rhythms” Muse cd
Followed by
Theo Hill “Interstellar Adventures” Posi-Tone cd
Hill’s second album with Rashaan Carter and the excellent drummer Rudy Royston.

Chesky LP of McCoy Tyner Quartet Reunion. A “Super Quartet” IMO with Joe Henderson, Ron Carter, and AL Foster all in fine form. The LP sounds nice as well.
