@spiritofradio James, the Nightfly live showed up in the mail the other day but I haven't had a chance to listen yet. I did stream it first and enjoyed it a lot, more than the new Steely Dan live recording (which was not bad in any way). Hopefully I can get it on the turntable soon. I've been busy and am seeing Madeleine Peyroux and Paula Cole tonight and Wilco tomorrow.

Brian, Yeah, you fellows got my re-interested in Ray Brown which, when I got Soular Energy, gave me a smack of recognition. Gene Harris’s playing made the hair on the back of my neck rise like it was brushed by the smoke rising from the grave of my prior self when I wore out my last days during the late 50’s on the covered stern deck of a big boat spinning jazz into the hot night. Or, maybe I heard him in a hotel bar once. |
