  1. And now, for something completely different.

    A few of these songs I played in high school jazz band, many, many years ago. Almost makes me want to get the horn out of the closet…but not quite. 20 years removed I’m sure it wouldn’t be great! #Jazz #BossaNova

    #AntonioCarlosJobim - The Composer of Desafinado Plays (1963)

  2. Shelly Manne/Bill Evans - Empathy

    The first time I listened to this I was taken aback…Evans isn't usually this playful, but in this session with Manne (and Monty Budwig on bass), everyone's cutting loose.

    Turns out this 1962 session was recorded when they were sharing a bill at the Village Vanguard. Riverside let Evans record for Verge, and there you go…one-off, and fun.

    New Verve Record Club release.

  3. #CharlieHaden

    #Nocturne
    #VerveRecords 2001

    Maravilloso disco, sumado al otro disco de boleros de Charlie (#LandOfTheSun, #VerveRecords 2004), la idea fue celebrar la creatividad musical Latinoamericana.
    Hay tanta belleza en cada pieza que compone este álbum, pero esas primeras notas de #GonzaloRubalcaba para "En La Orilla Del Mundo", como suelo decir con mucho cariño, tatuadas en mi alma.

  6. For #MusicMonday, I offer a story.

    Years ago, when my bff was getting married, I struggled to come up with a wedding gift that would suit both her and her guy. It had to be #music, because of course. Through a long and complex process I no longer recall, I decided on a set of #BillieHoliday's collected works on #Verve, on #vinyl.

    I remember wrapping them in dark blue tissue paper, and because my friend would be wearing ecru because she found it far more elegant than white, I used white lace ribbon that I'd dyed in tea.

    I was mostly a #PostPunk kid back then, but #LadyDay had taken me over, and for a long while after - 3 months? a year? - I could barely listen to anything else. My listening eventually widened again, but I kept her with me.

    Thus, on this Monday evening many years later, I find myself listening to this gorgeous new #VerveRecords Acoustic Sounds Series pressing of “Songs for Distingué Lovers."

  7. Yeah! Hopefully the first of a few. #CreedTaylor has an copyright free image back on his wikipedia page. Thanks to his sons Blake and John for helping me get this organized
