What Sunday jazz did you play today?

My Sunday Jazz albums play list for today. I've listened to the following today:

John Handy III* - No Coast Jazz
and ended with the classic
John Coltrane - Blue Train

What Sunday jazz did you play today?

Alice Coltrane -Huntington Ashram Monastery
Wayne Shorter - Adams Apple

Pat Metheny Group - Travels

Had to do Jimmy Smith With Stanley Turrentine - Prayer Meetin' to end this Sunday.

it's been a not so fine day. Caught up on some stuff I'd purchased but yet listened to.

Dolo Coker - California Hard (This was nice -- worthy of repeat listens)
Monk - Live in New York Vol 1 & 2 on Thelonious Records -- do not waste your time tracking this down even if you are a completest, this will go into collection bin where it shall never be heard from again due to awful sound quality.
Dexter Gordon - Live at Keystone Vol 2 (not as good as Vol 1 or 3, kind of meanders a bit too much)

Must put something reliable on to compensate.

Sarah Vaughn -After Hours
Johnny Smith -Kaleidoscope
Billy Holiday -Lady In Satin
Various. -The Sound of Jazz (1958)

Not jazz but played this yesterday Jimi Hendrix - Blues

Adam_S
Rufus Harley - A Tribute To Courage

interesting line-up, would you recommend this one?

My weekend spins included:
Black Art Jazz Collective - The Side Door Jazz Club

The first two were very good with plenty of moments of experimentation. I especially enjoyed Dr. White's versions of One Love, House Of The Rising Sun, and The Lion Sleeps Tonight. I didn't much care for the Black Art Jazz Collective though, despite the excellent lineup. It just didn't feel like they gelled as a group.

reapermadness
Dr. Michael White - Adventures In New Orleans Jazz Part 1

Will be on vacances 'til Aug. 27, but this one sounds tempting for sure...

I have a new found love for Ben Webster, and if you add to the mix Art Tatum, then it is nothing short of magic, package it in HiDef CD format and you'll think you died and went to heaven.

Art Tatum, Ben Webster, Red Callender, Bill Douglass (2) - The Tatum Group Masterpieces

Art Pepper - Roadgame

Just one of the many fantastic late period albums from the brilliant sax man.

Herbie Hancock - Takin' Off, an auspicious start for a great musician.
