Ted Curson's almost impossible to find 1966 album 'Urge' with Booker Ervin, Jimmy Woode & Edgar Bateman:

Been listening to John Scofield's recent "Combo 66" which features Gerald Hamilton playing piano and organ. I have lost track a bit of Hamilton of late but he is a really interesting pianist. I think that Hamilton is what you might describe as "mainstream" but the pairing with Scofield is inspired. It is a really good match. the music is pretty relaxed and is pitched firmly in the post-bop, funk and blues arena with some typically well-written tunes. I like it a lot but it just seems like one of those records which gets better and better the more you listen to it. Really impressed with this disc.

A little later today, Derek Nash and Sax Appeal. It'll be one helluva good gig.

It was.

Feel good music.....

Richard Groove Holmes "Something special" - a fine organist renowned for his great bass lines ( as demonstrated in his support behind the underrated tenorist Clifford Scott). Joe Pass and Les Mc can are on equally good form.

BD, commiserations. The loss of a parent is always a big one to take. Can't think of anything appropriate without being too sombre, but the French "Hawkins" saxophonist Guy Lafitte playing "Que reste-t-il de nos amours" (I wish you love), the old Charles Trénet song, is a celebration of loss, memory & affection and really beautifully played. (It's out of print but on YouTube). Its been a soundtrack for us over Christmas. Best wishes, Richard & Anna.
