The original UK pressing on Vertigo with the laminated sleeve.. IMO, the original UK Vertigo pressings are the ones to listen to.

Tomorrow some jazz...Miles Davis six-eye Kind of Blue...Not really like Sabbath but

Cool -- great to see another Oliver Nelson fan!





But uh.......................





My name is Rob.

 

I started with Blues and The Abstract Truth and liked it so I went and got the other three albums.

Tasty!

I think he's on some other albums as a side man and that's great, but I like it when he's the arranger as well.
