Share some under appreciated jazz album titles
I’ve been on a journey to discover more older jazz albums deeper down the catalog that share two traits; I like/love the music and the recording shines, quite possibly unexpectedly. By that I mean, I probably have a bias that leads me expect recordings from the fifties and sixties to be less detailed or “audiophile” than more recent recordings. I’m finding this bias to be truly misguided to say the least.
Please share some of your favorite lesser known jazz gems with both traits. To roll the ball… Dave Brubeck “In Time”, Johnny Hodges “Not So Dukish” and “Gerry Mulligan Meets Johnny Hodges”
Yes, I’ve been on a Johnny Hodges kick lately
happy listening everyone

+ 1 on "Anita Sings the Most" -- her best, IMHO. She, like many other Jazz vocalists, are rarely ever mentioned here. Have you heard Purim’s "Perpetual Emotion"? It’s a straight ahead Jazz date, not Fusion: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=X35jLiOVb1o&list=OLAK5uy_kCXtbLfAYXY8Rl-Mm8A43kVI5zu2XLd38&index=

I enjoy a lot Lew Tabackin ( i dont like flute a lot but Lew is a master not only on sax but on flute too and i love him ) and Toshiko Akioshi his wife band... Better than many big band... Two underscored musicians...Like many Asian jazz artists... I dont listen much to many female vocalists, but they are few exceptions in my list: try Youn Sun Nah a Korean female jazz singer ...
