Fortunately, I found another album stuffed in the same sleeve - Joe Pass - "Ira , George and Joe, Joe Pass Loves Gershwin." Nice clean guitar.

Speaking of clean guitar, now spinning Albert Collins - Ice Pickin'

Joe pass is a super fav of mine.

Here is Albert Collins live...If Trouble Was Money.

I was fortunate enough to see Albert Collins in a small club in Tulsa, close to 30 years ago. The man was entertainer through and through. Our table was about ten feet from the bandstand.

This looks like the ensemble he had when I saw him.

Suppose I should be listening to DSOTM, but didn't think about it until now.

Talked me into it.
Checking the sound on a pair of speakers with non original tweeters (Technics SB-7000A).

Very enjoyable concert tonight. Kansas City has built a top-notch performing arts center. Tonight, the Kansas City Jazz Orchestra performed there in a tribute to Harlem's Cotton Club. The musicians are not household names, but they are very talented. It was a big band show with music from Duke Ellington, Harold Arlen, Jimmy McHugh, Cab Calloway and others. One singer particularly impressed me; his name is Ron Gutierrez. My jaw dropped when he started singing. He had a voice reminiscent of Old Blue Eyes.

It is striking to me how much high quality musical talent there is that is not well known at all. I should not, however, be too surprised to see such a collection of it in Kansas City. After all, Kansas City has been the home of its share of famous jazz musicians, Count Basie, Charlie Parker, Joe Turner and others.

Man, I gotta get out more. There is too much good music out there to hang out at home so much.

Regards,

D-Ray
