+1 on Jimmy Scott. What an incredible story of being rediscovered from abject poverty to performing again. HIs "I go back home" is a tribute album and film that to me shows how much he was appreciated by people in the industry and I dig it out when I want to be emotionally moved.

Big Davis fan here, as a Jazz player. No so much as a Trumpet player. Armstrong, Marsalis, Edison and Eldridge are my favorites.
Maybe he played muted trumpet just a little too much.

Just watched the Netflix Miles Davis Birth of the Cool documentary. I'm not really a Miles Davis fan as but I will say I'm more of one today than yesterday. Great soundtrack.

@danager , @curiousjim
Thank you kindly.
"That Old Black Magic" brought me back to my younger days and Louis Prima and Keely Smith. One of my earliest ventures into Jazzy type music.
Cheers

Thanks @rok2id and all,
I’ve been lurking here for quite a while and enjoying all the titles. I’m currently on Amazon Music and can get most of the suggestions, will probably be going to Tidal soon if they have a larger library.
