I pulled out a Blue Note CD last night (I don't care what folks say, the RVG CDs may not be the best sounding on the face of the earth but they sure aren't a bad listen). Grant Green with Hutcherson on vibes, "Idle Moments"<br /><br />Did a great job with MJQ's "Django" which is one fine homage to a great musician. It's a composition I play, from various LPs, every time I lose a friend or family member or a Jazz great passes.<br /><br />The New Orleans feel of "So sad You're gone" and then a segue into "But you don't have to put up with the sh** any more, you're with God" of that song is so dramatic it always brings a tear to my eye then makes me smile.<br /><br />I think I like it well enough to blow bucks on a reissue, or if an older piece of vinyl's cheaper, I can live with a Liberty Blue Note.<br /><br />Played a Kenny Burrell Liberty directly after "Idle Moments" and found it was loved a bit too much by its former owner...oh well.Doc Notathingnoreply@blogger.com
