Today I purchased Blue Train by John Coltrane (on the blue note label) -Excellent and beautiful flowing Jazz work. Comp

Here's the whole album:
Here's the teaser:
Broken YouTube LinkYes, you are correct. I have posted this 60 times. This is 61.
My old professor said that Art Pepper became a parody of himself by his final days when we listened to his music. Not here.

Nature Boy is such a great tune. Of course Miles did one of my favorite versions.
i'll get to Autumn Leaves later this evening
Spring is Here
from Standard Coltrane, an old Richard Rodgers song recorded at Van Gelder in '58
intro is a little flat and uninspired ...until Trane drops in
John Coltrane - tenor
Wilbur Harden - trumpet, flugel
Red Garland - piano
Paul Chambers - bass
Jimmy Cobb - drums
Intro is a little flat but I like it. It makes St John that much stronger when he jumps in

haven't researched the Rodgers version much but i bet it's the only portion somewhat true to the original
this was recorded in the same session as tracks later found on Stardust and Bahia
potentially misleading because all three albums were released in the early 60s but all recorded 7-11-1958
what a busy day
none of the lot are particularly outstanding, suppose just another day in the lush life of Saint John
Standard Coltrane full album
the two found on Stardust
and the three from Bahia
expecting this may be difficult listening for many
Live in Warsaw 1993
Ornette Coleman - alto, trumpet
Don Cherry - trumpet
Charnett Moffett - bass
Denardo Coleman - drums
worth watching if only to better understand the young talent of Charnett Moffett
26 years old during this recording and effectively scrambling any logical perception of the limitations of playing double bass both plucked and bowed
reminder this is alongside Ornette and Cherry live
I need to park this here as I try to get caught up on my saxophone noire. I hear shades of morricone...
new to me ears ago today via languid tubing along rhythmic shores of streaming video
first time hearing of the Johnny Smith Quartet
shame on me
1955 west coast cool jazz with a bit of unpredictability and musicianship
Guitar – Johnny Smith
Piano – Bob Pancoast
Bass – George Roumanis
Drums – Mousie Alexander
also a fantastic album cover by Burt Goldblatt

I posted Johnny Smith last month. This month you never heard of him [emoji3166]
don't doubt that for a second, wondering was it the same album or something else?
It was Johnny playing Debussy la fille aux cheveaux de Lin.
so not the Johnny Smith Quartet, but me watching that may be the cause of them popping up on the alog
What's important is Johnny is amazing. I love his chord melody stuff.
I was getting ready to post a How have I never heard of this guy?, but luckily red was there to take the hit
there are no meaningful reward points gained from being the first in your rhythmic circle to hear particular musicians
but always welcome introduction to previously overlooked artists
obviously I dont care about priority of perception
I was joking that you guys prolly dont read my posts and missed the tone
possibly because I ate two caffeine pills that day
and dabbed some moon rocks
I was a little "jazzed up"
