@GraemeE Oh okay, so we're going there. Absolute killer LP. This is one of the albums I use to introduce Lee to the uninitiated.

[GraemeE]

@J-IV take me to school with some lee deep cuts?

[ManiacLachy]

I'm expanding my jazz appreciation thanks to the likes of you @J-IV and @GraemeE, much appreciated. I'm interested, but don't know much of where to start, so I'm enjoying putting your suggestions on the stereo via Apple Music.

@ManiacLachy ive picked up on a fair amount of new (to me) tunes from what @J-IV posts and I'm going to out on a limb and say that @NickD probably has some gold on those shelves of his

[J-IV]

@ManiacLachy ahh you give me too much credit. Take note of anything @GraemeE post. He’s the lifeline of this thread and I can’t wait to share a drink with him and nerd out on IH and music with him (and anyone on here for that matter).

[J-IV]

@GraemeE I feel like Lee as a sideman was mad underrated. So the records where he isn’t a lead or featured are often overlooked. Here’s a couple off top:

Even with a few hundred jazz titles I still feel like I’m just scratching the surface of the genre.

Anyway, here’s one for today. Ellington, Mingus and Max Roach. Not a group of musicians you’d imagine together, but it’s an absolute classic.

Todays score from jazz record center in NYC (great shop)

@68degreesorless thanks for this, I was going to ask for Blues suggestions next. I couldn't find this album on Apple, but they had other options for Mississippi Fred McDowell, cheers.

It’s a special day today, apparently.

Yesterday @tody and @Tago-Mago mentioned this band in the music thread.
Bad Religion- All your yesterdays is an unofficial release from 91’ and I haven’t heard it for decades. Sound quality is as modest as my system was at this time.
It’s on a par with seven songs of their debut How Could Hell Be Any Worse?.

[Aetas]

Driftin’ Back with Neil tonight.

[tody]

@Aetas That's a gem for sure. Funny how they filled up the setlist with Rock'n'Roll classics.

Another one for the hip hop heads

Don Ellis taking the Brubeck premise a bit further.
