Hey Robin, listening to that album, too. Really good stuff.

I would tentatively throw out Youn Sun Nah - Same Girl. Simple arrangements, virtuosic voice. Exotic, may not be everyone's cuppa, but I love it.

Here's a sample: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=nJ1H9kRI5RM

Give Breakfast in Baghdad and Enter the Sandman a chance. Just need to have an open mind.

Ok, all this Coltrane talk brings this to mind for me: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=C0YqJMexago&feature=related

Thanks for the tip! I had never heard Youn Sun Nah before... what a treat! Here's another Youtube vid of hers that I like a lot:

I'm sure everyone knows the answer to this but what is the technique she is using with the pedals called? Sampling? I've seen it in a few concerts lately.

I also noticed in the Utoob stuff an interview she gave from the Montreal Jazz fest.

Note to myself: Keep your eyes open next year...

Yeah really. I have 3 orders pending from Amazon (why are they so slow?) until I can order more...

GERRY MULLIGAN SONGBOOK

Super relaxing album.

Christian McBride, his bass solo of "Night Trian" is special as he plucks, pounds and bows his way into this classic tune.

The Complete Bitches Brew Miles Davis

Two Masters of Jazz Piano with totally different styles. It can be had on Amazon now for download. Was out of print for years. Burning is a great swing tune.

RED GARLAND'S PIANO w/ Paul Chambers and Art Taylor 1956

Nice & mellow although with some speedy cuts to perk you up. Excellent SQ- remastered version.
