Joe Henderson and the Wynton Kelly Trio Four

Wynton Kelly Trio does it again! An under-appreciated stalwart of the scene in the 50s and 60s. Their album with Wes Montgomery, Smokin’ at the Half Note is another winner, not to mention the trio albums Kelly Blue and Kelly Great, which are worth taking a listen to.

Just came 2 Days ago on Quboz.
Very nice Live Album by Art Pepper. Just recorded a few Month before he died.
Recorded live at the Estate Jazz Festival, Genova, Italy on July 6, 'Art of Art' features five selections, four original compositions by Pepper, plus the popular standard "Over The Rainbow" by Harld Arlen. Bebop and the blues are at the forefront of this session, superbly delivered by the leader and his all-star accompanists George Cables, David Williams, and Carl Burnett.

"Art Pepper's brilliance was not in his control, it was like a chemical combination in the laboratory; his horrible childhood and his incredible musical gift, with his desire to communicate, are things he did with great success... For Art, there was nothing better than being on stage. He lived for it. On tour he was spectacular, and he always managed to convey something, no matter what it was. The concert in Genoa shows once more how well Pepper played in the last period of his life, perhaps better than he ever did." - Mario Giorgi
