As a follow-up to a post by serhan, I am initiating a thread dedicated to all things jazz with its primary focus on jazz you are listening to and your comments regarding the listening experience.

Kenny Burrell “Ode to 52nd Street” Cadet/Universal Japan cd [image]

Listened to the Bill Evans / Behind the Dikes High quality, highly recommended OUT OF PRINT vinyl - #100 by jazznut

From what I can tell it includes Jimmy Cobb, Paul Chambers, John Coltrane or Sonny Stitt and Wynton Kelly. The recordings are from the Olympia Theater, Paris March 21, 1960 with Coltrane and October 11, 1960. The set was released on CD in 2014. Seems like this is the group that travelled to Europ…

@lonson Thank-you for jostling my memory as something was telling me I had this, well the Coltrane portion at least. The vinyl set and 4-CD Bootleg Vol. 6 set as well. A strong set with Coltrane pushing the limits and Miles’ tolerance. Heartily recommended in either version. I may pick up this L…
