Happy birthday to ME. And next month it's Art's. I apologize for skipping July but I've been overwhelmed by the the work of creating an epub version of WISWAJJ (see sidebar and buy it if you haven't --- check out
http://lauriepepper.net for reviews etc.).
Like it says, Art with
Duke Jordan, David Williams, Carl Burnett

The WHOLE album, more than 2 hours of magnificent music, was originally licensed to Fantasy Records (by me). It has been bootlegged everywhere. For good reason. I've been listening all morning. It's wonderful! AND...
I'm offering it NOW, more than 2 hours of magnificent music (plus downloadable liner notes), for only ten bucks (the price may go up) & if you buy it from ME you'll support the release of more Art Pepper.
Let me just say the 22 minute CARAVAN is phenomenal on this one. One of the best Art ever played. Well, really, it's all great: Besame at 16 minutes is divine, Cherokee is burning hot, Radio Blues is as funky as it gets (you know me by now. That's what I LIKE), and of course Duke and Art are ol' time beboppers so there are Rhythm-A-Ning, Good Bait (on clarinet!), etc., thrilling as well.) Guaranteed.
Indeed Laurie, I am so glad to see this get a proper release. Time to toss the bootleg and get the real thing. Wonderful recording.
