Rod Stewart - I don't wanna talk about it (W/lyrics) Tori Amos - Cornflake Girl HDTV. Feist - 1234. Lauryn Hill - Doo-Wop (That Thing) The Who - Baba O'riley. Lenny Kravitz - Fly Away. Donny Hathaway-For All We Know. Eagles - One Of These Nights. John Martyn - One World (live OGWT 1977) Sonny Rollins - Strode Rode. Tricotism - Lucky Thompson. Lucky Thompson creates a host of spectacular improvisations on the 16 songs on this wonderful CD reissue. It is comprised of two 1956 sessions; one features Thompson heading a trio backed by bassist Oscar Pettiford and guitarist Skeeter Best, and the other has him heading either a quartet or quintet including the great trombonist Jimmy Cleveland. Cleveland's smooth, superbly articulated phrases and statements rank alongside Thompson's gliding lines in their brilliance, and pianist Hank Jones (on three cuts) also sparkles with some marvelous solos.

But Thompson is the star on this date, his elegant yet robust and exuberant playing demonstrating again what a loss his voluntary departure from the scene has constituted. Les Lundis d'Hortense - Le site - Jean-Louis Rassinfosse / Chet Baker / Philip Catherine. The Aladdin Sessions - Lester Young. Estate - Chet Baker & Philip Catherine. Thelonious Monk - There's Danger In Your Eyes, Cherie (Take 1)
