1. Hiromi - Brain - Excellent, fun cd by a young artist with interesting sound and a touch of classical influence
2. Keith Jarrett - The Out-of-Towners
3. Patricia Barber - A Fortnight in France
I forgot Easy Living and Mulgrew Miller's Live at Yoshi's. My thanks to everyone, and a special thanks to duanegoosen - for such an extensive list. I'm looking forward to trying some of the discs on your list, Duane.
Picked up - Enrico Rava/ Easy Living, my mother in law
and I think it's great. Mahalo for the tip.
Roy Haynes' "Fountain of Youth" Bill Charlap's "Somewhere" and "OH!" featuring John Schofield, Joe Lovano, Dave Holland, and Al Foster. These have been in heavy rotation for the last year!
