Doug Ramsey on Jazz and other matters...

Another “Desafinado”

Rifftides has every intention of getting back into full swing as soon as possible. Endless negotiations, tests and conversations (no shouting, so far) with Printer problemtechnical experts of a hardware manufacturer have consumed hours that would have been better spent listening, writing and posting. I hope to have good news from the techies tomorrow. In the meantime, the Rifftides staff is reaching into the backlog of recordings and videos that we keep on hand for times like this.

From a 1994 Carnegie Hall concert, Antonio Carllos Jobim introduces Joe Henderson, tenor saxophone. He does not introduce the sidemen, but they seem to be Charlie Haden, bass; Pat Metheny, guitar; and Al Foster, drums

Onward.

I hope.
