The Good Stuff


There are simply two kinds of music, good music and the other kind ... the only yardstick by which the result should be judged is simply that of how it sounds. If it sounds good it's successful; if it doesn't it has failed. --  Duke Ellington

This purpose of this thread is to provide a place to post outstanding examples of the Good Music.

My CD has a different cover art, but it is the same album.

Nat Adderley

WORK SONG

Riverside / OJC        1960 / 1989

Notes: "Cornet, cello, and guitar make up a front line that will probably never be duplicated.  The guitarist was his friend Wes Montgomery, just emerging towards Jazz stardom; the cellist was the longtime bassist of Cannonball's band, Sam Jones."
