It’s roomy in here.
Yup. I like what they’ve done with the place.
A high quality recording. An ECM vibe happening here, even though not on ECM. Playing the SACD layer now. Highly recommend.
Jose James “Yesterday I had the Blues: the Music of Billie Holiday” Blue Note Japan SHM-CD (2022 reissue)
This is one of those rare releases that I didn’t think I would fall in love with when it was first released but I did and I still think it’s both a great slab of music and a great recording.
Elvin Jones “The Prime Element” Blue Note Japan UHQCD 2022
Disc 1
So great that this 2 LP set is now on cd from Japan as a 2 cd set.
Peggy Lee “World Broadcast Recordings 1955” Audiophile Records, 2 cd set, disc 1
Could wish for a bit livelier mastering perhaps, but I love Peggy during this time period a lot, and this is good stuff.
Cootie Williams 1941-1944" Chronogical Classics cd
Some great stuff with Bud, Cleanhead and Lockjaw (in minor roles) that I have never heard before.
