(LP Prestige Victor Japan "Prestige Jazz Masterpiece Series" SMJ-6608(M)) 1979 .... recorded July 27th, 1956 @ Van Gelder Studio Hackensack .... impressive soundtrack for a relaxed jazz morning pint .... both Hank Mobley and Kenny Dorham (what a superb trumpeter) at their very best - a delicate pairing indeed .... btw Doug Watkins (!!) proves his mastery here .... beautiful Victor Japan vinyl press from the late 70`s ....
Many thanks for the link. I see now the 2 LPs "at Birdland" are also here. The other 2 are 1o" Lps oop. The J.J. Lp is not in my collection.

Revisiting my Favorite Keith Jarrett leader album over the past few days on repeat. From his short impulse period, it’s “Back Hand”. Featuring the quartet with Charlie Haden, Paul Motian and Dewey Redman, plus some intriguing augmented percussion work by Guilherme Franco. This album really sounds like a band, not a project or a group of cats assembled for the studio. Not sure how much they played together but it sounds like quite a bit. An excellent communal effort from musicians who really couldn’t be anyone but themselves. The drumming and Redman’s tenor are especially recognizable but truly everyone in this band is so unique. Interesting original tunes broadcasted from the 1970s badlands; Where post-bop and rock would congregate despite repeated warnings from their parents. And it was good.
Every now and then I get a little reflective on all the great music I have and how much enjoyment its brought to my life. This is one of those great moments.

TOKYO ADAGIO - CHARLIE HADEN | Gonzalo RUBALCABA (Impulse!) CD with Charlie Haden (bass) & Gonzalo Rubalcaba (piano) Recorded live at the Blue Note, Tokyo in 2005 but not released on CD until 2015. It has an excellent sound quality with mastering by Mark Wilder. This beautiful recording captures the duo in an impressive, peaceful Jazz/Classical vein.

(LP Blue Note Liberty Blue White Stereo BST-84181) 1966 .... recorded September 14th, 1964 @ Van Gelder Studio Englewood Cliffs .... Joe Henderson (ts) + Kenny Dorham (tp) + Tommy Flanagan (p) + Richard Davis (b) + Albert Heath (dr) .... in a more than fitting assessment writer Gary Giddins once stated that Dorham's name has become "virtually synonymous with underrated" and to reinforce said judgement this superb Kenny Dorham session should be his final album as leader .... what more to say about Joe Henderson and his legendary sideman gigs for Blue Note .... btw Richard Davis (!!) .... listening via an exemplary sounding Blue Note Liberty vinyl press from 1966 ....
