Rushton, I just sat down to record write up my listening session this evening and read yours. I completed tonights listening with RR 23, Vivaldi side only: "Sinfonia in C", "Trio Sonata in G Minor", and "Concerto in E-flat". I haven't thought about this recording in months, then wind up playing it the same night you do (cue Twilight Zone theme here) In addition:
Eva Cassidy "Songbird" (S&P 501)
Ben Webster/Joe Zawinal "Soulmates" (Riverside 9476/OJC 109)
Webster's saxophone is so breathy and centered in the mix, with Zawinal's piano on the left, bass just right of center and Philly Joe Jones drums on the right. A wonderful recording of soulful, thoughtful music making.
