Now we know where Dickens got the inspiration for Uriah Heep.
Magnificent album!
Well this is a bit of a find for me featuring Robben Ford, Bill Frisell on every track…seems to be below the radar for me. Thanks to my vinyl pal Chris Harris on facebook.
The Kinks. Muswell Hillbillies. The sq may not be brilliant but the music on this 2 cd edition certainly is. Perfect with a cup of er… coffee.

A post in the Song Of The Day thread reminded me that I have this compilation of LJ’s first 3 EPs.
Cool ‘downtempo’ start to the day with this excellent recording full of samples and inventiveness.
OJC LP 1958 session
With this line up what’s not to like
In the vein of many a smooth West Coast jazz outing, this 1958 disc finds original cool stylist Getz paired with vibraphonist Cal Tjader on a very enjoyable selection of jazz standards and Tjader originals. The lineup includes pianist Vince Guaraldi, guitarist Eddie Duran, bassist Scott La Faro, and drummer Billy Higgins (this was one of the earliest record dates for either La Faro or Higgins, both of whom were playing with Getz at San Francisco’s Black Hawk in between recording sessions). Guaraldi’s spry “Ginza Samba” kicks thing off with nimble and imaginative statements by all the soloists. Tjader’s swinging originals “Crow’s Nest” and “Big Bear” provide prime solo vehicles as well, while his lovely waltz number “Liz-Anne” adds some nice contrast to the set, eliciting one of Getz’s best solos in the process. The group rounds things out with fine ballad readings of “I’ve Grown Accustomed to Her Face” and “For All We Know.” A recommended title for both Getz and Tjader fans.
It is! And I am! (After I’ve finished Stan Getz/Cal Tjader)
