Jazz Music Thread

Recorded 1968 at Hans-Georg Brunner-Schwer‘s studio in the Black Forest.

One of the few albums where Evans plays with DeJohnette, who later joined Jarrett’s “Standards” trio.

Recommend by Flophouse and the estimable London Jazz Record Collector I have to agree.

Leo, Gloria Coleman,organ, Kenny Burrell and Frankie Dunlop.

Deeply soulful and happy music.

Unlike LJRC no tactile fondling of the record sleeve just dear old Qobuz.

Two very fine but in many ways quite different nights.

Although I can’t find it on Qobuz it club must be there( Roon will find it) so a quick take Monk on fire with that right leg stomping and Ben Riley fanning the blaze.

I recently purchased the cds for headphone listening.

With a very good AllMusic review.

Novovirius is nasty. Get well soon.

Well Monk got fed up and danced out the front door but let in his mate Bud Powell.

A recording arranged in Paris by Cannonball Adderley

Bud seems content and happy. Like Prez don’t believe they were at their musical terminus. Through all their troubles they still out perform many of todays stars. Just slower,more considered.Reflective of hard lives.

Real monster of the session is Don Byas. I know he didn’t truly want the jazz mans’ life but when given the opportunity…whooosh.

Discovered deep in the Qobuz mine.
