apart from the beauty of melody and lyrics, this sparse studio performance is a jewel embedded in the history of jazz.

Wayne Shorter's lines... pure beauty.

I really think that Joni has the best female voice in jazz. Plus Wayne and Jaco... does it get any better than this?

Funny, you say this and the very next post is Cleo. She ranks higher on my scale, love the earthy husky voice.

Until I started listening to Chet I hadn't realised how seductive or sad a trumpet could sound, lovely piano playing here too.

Chet Baker, the thinking woman's crumpet I suppose .. He was called the James Dean of jazz at one time. I've got some of his 45s and a couple of LPs where he plays with Getz and somebody else I can't remember.. I have some of his albums on cd too. In times when I've felt my heart dragging behind me on the floor, Chet has helped my emotions to come out. I love the trumpet and really admire anybody who can play it well but he has to be an inspiration for anyone who picks one up.

And you like him as well.

And you like him as well.

Only for the trumpet playing.
