Today's JAZZ playlist

Recently acquired a TEAC X-300. I just listened to the Brubeck tape from this little pile of reels I just picked up. Not familiar with it or it's legendary predecessor. I like it a lot and oh boy does this tape sound amazing!

Irene Reid Room For One More.jpeg

Color me embarrassed for not knowing who Irene Reid was as a singer.
I inherited a slew of records from a friend and amongst them was this gem. What a great voice.
Checkout the backing musicians:

It sounds a little “60s” but in that way good.
 

  • Reeds: Coleman Hawkins (tenor sax), Russell Procope, and Hilton Jefferson (alto saxes/clarinets).
  • Trumpets: Henry "Red" Allen, Bobby Stark, and Russell Smith.
  • Trombones: Dickie Wells and Claude Jones.
  • Rhythm Section: Horace Henderson or Fletcher Henderson (piano), Bernard Addison (guitar), John Kirby (double bass), and Walter Johnson (drums),



Recorded on August 18, 1933, and originally released as Vocalion 2583-A.

We returned from Oregon yesterday. I had hopes of plundering some record stores, but that failed to materialize. I had to settle for one store that wasn't quite what I wanted. Used records sprinkled in amongst mostly budget reissues. Oh well. We did have a great time with our daughter & son, so all was not lost.

I was wondering where you might be as I haven't seen you post here in a short while... until now of course. I'm glad you had a nice trip to Oregon.
