Take the ”A” Train soi taustalla, taiteilen
sohvanpartaalla pienen koiran vieressä, läppärini ääressä,
toivon saavani idean, ihan minkä tahansa, jota
toteuttaisin hetken ja sitten hylkäisin

Alabama 3 - Woke Up This Morning

This is the only long version of the song on Youtube. Which is a shame. What a banger.

I love Max Roach's drumming on Fleurette Africaine (African
Flower) on Duke Ellington's Money Jungle with Charles Mingus. The way the drums talk with the other instruments at the start of the track, especially, like birds calling out to each other in the trees at dawn.

Duke Ellington: Ellington in Order, Vol. 2 (1928-30)

Vol. 2 is much like Vol. 1, in that though the sound quality is really good, there is still static on some tracks, but course that can hardly be helped at this point. With Volume 2 still being only on 1930 this series is going be very long, and expensive. I am still curious if later volumes will include Duke's collaborations.
