Here is the 2023 BlueNote Classics release list.

2023 BN Classics

[jghughes2]

The second (and last) album from Paradoxical Frog…don’t know why they did not continue to record…

Kris Davis - piano
Ingrid Laubrock - tenor saxaphone
Tyshawn Sorey - percussion

[weedeewop]

My guess is Tyshawn moved on…

Been away from Compulsion!!! for too long, I had forgotten who played the tenor on this BN release.

Listening to the odd 1991 Capitol cd that uses the stereo cover but has the mono LP and 13 other tracks, and the “Something Cool” album is not in album order, but the songs all mixed up.

That said. . . I like it, and we sure got something cool today here in NE Ohio.

Followed by something a bit more heated. . . disc 2

Classic Jazz At The Philharmonic Jam Sessions 1950-1957, disc 2 of 10

Nucleus “Live at the BBC” disc 6 of 13

Ken Vandermark Quartet Eight Ball, a 45’r with Side A offering up Steelhead, and Eight Ball on B. Limited release EP, with Dan Scanlan, Michael Zerang and Kent Kessler. A fun free flowing set with the quartet at ease.

A most energetic tribute to John Colrane. McCoy Tyner is on fire on Bluesin’ For John C.

[lonson]

Keith Jarrett
Charlie Haden
Paul Motian
“Hamburg '72” ECM cd

I don’t believe I have heard this since it was first released–and it sat in the can a long time til 2014. Very nice recording and an excellent performance.

[weedeewop]

I’ve always enjoyed Charlie with Keith.

Bennie Green, Time Records/Solid Records Japan cd

A great session with Sonny Clark.

Setting in to a fantastic Kenny Burrell Tone Poet LP. In general I have been quite pleased with the Blue Note Tone Poet releases. As far as the music o this one, it speaks for itself, a classic.
