I do love his 70-80’s recordings, although the sound quality can be very variable

The one with Don Byas is one of my favourites @Nick1940 ; now that you posted, I took another listen. Very cool

Really enjoyed all his albums posted here…new find for me Thanks
I’ve been rediscovering some of my Kenny Wheeler albums. This one, with Chris Potter, John Taylor and Dave Holland in a drumless quartet setting is just excellent. John Taylor is one of my favourite jazz pianists, who of course worked with Kenny Wheeler a lot.
For the Kenny Fans:
This is a nice tribute from a fellow Canadian Trumpeter, Ingrid Jensen.
This led me to the Jensen Sisters’ album which also has that melodic ethereal Wheeler sound:
Cheers,
