Freestyle- Karin Krog, voice, with John Surman, reeds, synth, etc. (ODIN). That label, all the Scandinavian labels, actually, have a wonderful way with sound.

1983 Pablo with Kenny Barron, Rufus Reid, Marvin Smith

Two graduates of the Basie band of the '50s and '60s, give great sax. The lush tone and precise playing move this session right along. The great rhythm section doesn't hurt either. One of those records you wish was longer.

Speaking of song birds, in those days, Muldaur had the voice of a wood thrush.

Is it OK to post a "show and tell" (actually a "listen and tell") on this thread?
Don't know why it wouldn't be, so here goes...
The following YouTube offering of "Nobody Knows You When You're Down and Out", a 1920's number written by Jimmie Cox for Bessie Smith and performed here by my all time favorite female vocalist, Alberta Hunter, during her 1980's comeback (when she was in her 80's) is well worth a listen. It's from a video tape and the pictures aren't great but the audio is fine. If you can't access it from the code below, just Google "Alberta Hunter on YouTube" and it will show up. I trust you will all give it a listen.

Jazz at The Long Wharf, a Mark Levinson recording dedicated to bassist Jimmy Garrison who was Coltrane's bassist along with McCoy Tyner and Elvin Jones in Coltrane's quartet in the 60's (MLAR 1) featuring himself on bass, Doug Levinson on piano and Bill Elgart on drums, 45 rpm.

Recorded 1954 Period Records. Originally on 2 - 10" records called Jazzical Moods. This is remastered by Bethlehem and reissued in 1984.

John LaPorta - clarinet, alto
Teo Macero - tenor, bari
Thad Jones - trumpet
Jackson Wiley - cello
Clem De Rosa - drums

Bethlehem did a great job of remastering this mono recording. I wonder what the original sounds like. This is vintage Mingus and if you're a fan, a good session. If you're not familiar with his work maybe you should check him out. Mingus was a unique voice and notice, there's no piano. I can't think of a Mingus record that doesn't bring a smile to my face or make me laugh at least once or twice.

Hey B, I can recommend Dan's "Gaucho" re-master, too. Probably because of my particulars, you know how that goes, I think the production and sound have a leg up, too. The boy/girl choruses floor me and the sound is richer and more room filling. Cheers.
