It's Ray Brown and Milt jackson but Kenny Burrell"s fat guitar tone and Marion Williams on two songs, "Sometimes I feel like a motherless child". Beautiful bluesy gospel style singing and it seems the church came to the studio especially on "I"ve got to live the life I sing in my song"

Been a while since I've spun some records - drowning in long work days.
Dusted off this gem from the cupboard. Turrentine is so confident and in top form on this set. I love the layered arrangements, there's so much going on but all so tight! I highly recommend a listen.

Highly recommend all you to listen to this album. Recently listened to this vinyl at Lyrita Audio and it was divine. Some of the best and lively instrument playing (specially the drums) on it!! Rather I'd say every member sounds on top of their game on it. If you get this vinyl, just blind buy it.

Hey long time but having a jazz afternoon and suddenly panicked that I didn’t share one of my favourite songs. Three soloists (Charlie Rouse, Thad Jones and Monk) backed by Sam Jones and Art Taylor. Each solo is a jewel with lyrical (Rouse), quirky (jones) and genius (Monk!). Here goes.

Great album!
Most people would also recommend ‘Speak No Evil’, but this is my favourite Shorter:
Just read a good review in Downbeat and looking forward to checking it out.
Do post your impressions if you get your hands on it.
I know how you feel; I need a lifejacket, too!
Mr.T has always been a go-to guy for some simmering grooves. Try and get your hands on this one, as well. There’s an absolutely amazing version of Coltrane’s ‘Impressions’ in soul jazz mode.

Nice!
In fact, I pulled out an old album of Redman tonight, and it still sounds fresh after nearly 25 years. Here’s a sample:
I was fortunate to catch a set at the Blue Note 3 years ago.The band just walked onto the stage, performed and left. No announcements, no introductions, just impactful music. One of my Redman favorites is his album Walking Shadows, described as "These are some of the most nuanced, lyrical, and romantic recordings Redman has ever produced. "It's a beautifully played project, but perhaps a shade on the tasteful side for some jazzers."
