here’s nice line-up, led by george russell, from 1964.  i don’t remember hearing a jazz version of you are my sunshine before (and not for a long time in any other style you’d care to mention).  the last four tracks have been released on a bootleg, btw, along with 4 tracks from another show.  i wonder why they do that — for me, it much more interesting as a full concert (though one often takes what one can get, sometimes!).

  2. ANOTHER EXCELLENT BAND!…
    BIG THX!…

  3. Thanks, Pete, very much – yes, I wonder why the bootleggers produce what they do as well (“why not this track as well, it would complete the concert?”) but, like you, I’m just happy that these great musical moments are available to listen to…
