I will admit to being a little zoned-out as David Ward’s Ruckus: Live at CJC was playing this morning. End of the week tiredness or
hangover from yesterdays kick in the guts? I’m not sure....
perhaps a bit of both? Anyway, it deserves more attention than I gave
it, so I will return to it next week.
Along with a very welcome cup of tea, I followed up Ruckus
with my daily fix of Too Marvelous For Words - Disc 4: De
Doelen Hall, Rotterdam 20 June, 1981. This concert is notable as it
features Sal’s own pieces more than the other concerts of the tour.
In fact, the first ten pieces are Sal’s lines/compositions. It’s
a treat getting to hear them back to back, and it brings a different
vibe to the disc. It lifted my spirits somewhat, but it has been a
long day.
Of Sal’s solo recordings (probably my favourite setting for Sal), I have listened to A Concert and Trickle the most. For You and Sal Mosca Music are off limits until I deal with my lack of a turntable situation.
Something about
listening to all these pieces by Sal made me want to bust out Psalm –
Jimmy Halperin’s duo album with Sal. It might get a run later
tonight unless it is bumped by Sal's duo with Lee - Spirits. We'll see, but I'm sure both will get a run shortly.
