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.

Ray Bryant SOMEWHERE IN FRANCE Hyena Records 2003 Notes : "Ray's doin' just fine. He works where he wants, when he wants and for good bread. And the honors have even started to come in. He's one of a handful of musicians who are part of The Smithsonian's Living Legends Oral History Archive. And recently he was elected to the Hall Of Fame at The Institute For Jazz Studies at Rutgers University. So few of the guys from the golden age made it to their golden years in good shape. Ray has his cake, and he's eatin' it. Sometimes the good guys actually do win." The first Jazz album I ever purchased was Bryant's Slow Freight.
