There are several very interesting lps in this
week's group.

Among my favorites are Stan Getz' 50th birthday lp
with Joanne Brackeen. It's
a double album with a fine quartet and plenty of
room for the soloists.

Also, a wonderful and very rare Coleman Hawkins
recording with Thad Jones
and Eddie Costa!

Clare Fischer's Surging ahead is a rare Pacific
Jazz release that should be
interesting to collectors Barney Kessel has a
swinging trio lp for a penny,
Warren Vache's maiden voyage called First Time Out
is subtle and attractive.

I love virtually anything by Lee Konitz, and his
lp on the original MIlestone label
with Ron Carter called Spirits is up to his
legendary status.

Dinah Washington has rarely been captured as well
as she has on the Quincy
Jones outing issued on Mercury with some fine
solos by Quentin Jackson,
Clark Terry and Lucky Thompson. Speaking of Lucky,
there is an album of his
own, pairing him with Martial Solal called Jazz
Legacy.

And also, speaking of Quincy Jones, is a really
fine recording of Bossa Nova
type tunes with lots of solo space for Clark
Terry, and Roland Kirk, among
others.

The Newport Jazz Festival lp is the typical jam
session. Side one is up temp,
side two features a variety of ballads. Excellent
outings by Zoot Sims, Clark
Terry and Joe Newman stand out in my mind.


Among the others is a staraight forward quartet
with trumpeter Jonah Jones, a
really fine Harry James Capital recording, Chick
Corea from his fusion days, a
quartet with the unheralded but highly regarding
violinist Claude Williams
featuring Jay McShann.
