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.

Art Farmer SOMETHING TO LIVE FOR : THE MUSIC OF BILLY STRAYHORN Comtemporary 1987 Flugelhorn: Art Farmer, Saxophone: Clifford Jordan, Piano: James Williams, Bass (vocal): Rufus Reid, Drums: Marvin Smith Art Farmer appeared quite often on Johnny Carson's Tonight Show. Billy Strayhorn, Ellington collaborator, died of cancer, and he wrote several tunes based on his ordeal, such as, Blood Count, Unit 7, and Upper Manhattan Medical Group. Creepy.
