Nice music, but I'm not crazy about the conga.

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

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.

The music is as groovy as the cover!

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.

I'll join the Ella parade -
