Heh. I was about to recommend The Happy Blues as my favorite of the early Ammons jam sessions, but now I see that's got congas as well (though not in my memory).

Thanks for the reminder. I just put this on:


BTW, there are some imminent Japanese CD reissues of old recordings that have been hard to find outside the Mercury/Emarcy box (which I don't have). I filled a couple of holes by preordering Gifts and Messages and Slightly Latin, the latter of which is kind of unusual  ;D .

In curious timing, as friend just leant this to me.

Funny, when I first saw this I thought it said, "Oh Lord, Don't Let Them Drop That Atonal Bomb on Me."

My first time hearing this, and a couple of quibbles aside I'm really impressed by it.

Ella Fitzgerald: The Last Decca Years, 1949-1954. One of those albums that says "summer," but good any time.

I like Ella at the time of Decca recording. I listened to Ella first time when I was around 19 yo. It was the album below and it blew me away.
