Im listen to a mix of Billie holiday tracks from when she was with Decca Records in the 50's. Its got a lot of live bands and a couple of tracks that including sessions with the Duke Ellington and Count Basie orchestras, and a duet with Louis Armstrong. Swiped it when my Mom wasn't looking and copied it to my xbox 360.

Billie Holiday and Louis Armstrong eh.... Sounds pretty interesting. The only Lee Morgan album (well CD, well, actually mp3 based album) I have is Sidewinder.

I've been listening Jeff Bradshaw lately, since he did a show in Jackson back in December. I hear he is coming back to town for an Encore presentation. He is quite the trombone player!
