0470 Leonard Feather [One World Jazz] FLAC 6(45.18)

My own LP, ripped under expert guidance and here presented at 24bit/48kHz which I have not ventured to before. It is large, therefore. A practice exercise for me.

It was on the Ronnie Ross Music blog before but not this rip of course.

0188 Martial Solal [Jazz International] FLAC 7(38.01)

Contributed by bluebird, who writes:-
An usual grouping of Jimmy Deuchar, Allen Eager and Billy Byers with a French based rhythm section and recorded in Paris in 1956.
Deuchar was playing a short engagement with a Tommy Whittle group in Paris, Eager was resident in the city temporarily, Byers and Kenny Clarke were permanent residents there whilst the bassist was Belgian and the pianist French. International indeed.
All the front line musicians play well and overall the session is a great treat. It surely deserves a cd release so that it can become better known.
