This genre today...

Ben Webster meets Oscar Peterson   Verve, AP/QRP reissue 45rpm

Haven't posted in a while, but haven't stopped listening! This one arrived today and is on my table tonight. I have a few of these Acoustic Sounds Series Verve releases now, and I'm enjoying them.

Ella* And Louis* - Ella And Louis Again

Url: https://www.discogs.com/release/24534383-Ella-And-Louis-Ella-And-Louis-Again

Steely Dan-Can’t Buy A Thrill(MCA no barcode) Side B

Chopin-The Chopin Preludes(M 33507) Side 1

Julie London-Tenderly Yours Side B

Ted Nugent-Cat Scratch Fever(gatefold/barcode) Side 2

Mtume-You, Me And He Side 2 SQ Audiophile

Mundell Lowe-Presents Transit West Side 2 SQ Audiophile

Bonnie Raitt-Green Light Side 2

Sadao Watanabe-Rendezvous Side 2 SQ Audiophile

Mtume pulls the upset and takes SQ crown. Only Julie London was hampered by SQ. The MCA "Dan" was good but nothing special. Green Light had a "Stones" type vibe to it with excellent content and near Audiophile SQ. If you have any interest in Jazz/Fusion Rendezvous should be in your collection.

Howdy, Y'all 

Bill Evans AP 45rpm box set arrived so it will consume my listening a bit

So far tonight:

New Jazz Explorations - phenomenal 

Waltz For Debbie - same 

Everyone Digs Bill Evans - never sounded so good 

Portait in Jazz - might do a cage match shoot out with the One Step to see who reigns Supreme 

@boxer12  - There are definitely things I like about the album. Trying to decide it if all jells for me, into a cohesive whole. Or not...

@reubent - I'm in the same boat on that one although I've only listened to it once so far. I do like their older stuff though... 

The Mars Volta - S/T (2022)

Again. Jury is still out on this one, for me.
