Playlist, Week of 2021-10-24

Keep coming back to Such Sweet Thunder, a true Ellington masterpiece in a discography of so many masterpieces... the bonus tracks on my CD version are also some of his best '60s songs... over and over, over and over... I love how Muhal Richard Abrams fits right in with the Art Ensemble of Chicago on Fanfare for the Warriors... fits in tight... For a review of the new Jefferson Pilot, see here... All over again, I am quite taken and enchanted with "Cool Cool Water" from Sunflower... The new Deerhoof keeps kicking it... And then of course the new Coltrane...
