Back Water Blues – Dinah Washington (live version, Max Roach et al) 4:42
I’ll Remember April – Concert by the Sea – Erroll Garner 4;14
Strange Meadow Lark – Dave Brubeck Quartet – 7:20
Corcovado – Getz/Gilberto 4:13

You are one class act, Jerry. What beautiful choices. Man, I grew up wearing out the grooves of Garner’s “Concert by the Sea” LP. I look forward to tuning in on that series of Inter-tubes (great news about Ted Stevens’ indictment,eh?!).
Strange Meadow Lark – nice touch!
