Some seriously funky music coming up, followed by jazz legends. (more…)
Rick McLaughlin
Dorge through Dylan
More great LPs on this list, from Pierre Dorge through Bob Dylan. (more…)
Ron Carter LPs
I have been trying to clean up some of the WordPress files associated with blog, and lo and behold, what do I find, but this post, which I never published.

The next batch of LPs in my alphabetical listening project is a pretty broad ranging one: (more…)

Coryell and Costello
