"Jazz in Paris" Collection CD 7, 9, and 10

So I've been listening to a lot of stuff lately, but today I paid a visit to the Jazz In Paris collection of my Wish List again. I listened to the following albums on Rhapsody while typing up a few posts and playing around on Flickr.



Talk about a funky album. I'll definitely check out more of Coleman's stuff because it was heavy.
I listened to Dizzy Gillespie's album (#9 in the series, above) next as the eighth disc in the series wasn't available on Rhapsody. It just flowed from the previous album almost seamlessly in style and tempo and then picked up melodically as it progressed.


The last disc I listened to was a lot slower in pace and style. A good work, it actually suited the gloomy weather and rain that suddenly came out of nowhere this afternoon and ended the day for me on a poignant note.

Disc 9 in the series is Chet Baker's "Broken Wing". I'll get to it eventually.
