Vinyl Grade: NM
Side A track 4 has light pops
Jacket Grade: EX
1995 German Pressing
As the title spells out, these are songs that the trio were most often asked to play during their many residencies and gigs. As such they slip into favorites like 'Corcovado' and 'The Days of Wine and Roses' with a comfort that allows each player to have fun with these familiar melodies and turn their solos into virtuosic fireworks displays. The remastering job by Ryan Smith is, as ever, dynamite, but as I sit here listening to the trio sashay through 'The Girl From Ipanema,' I'm struck by how present each instrument is. Even at a pleasant shuffle, Thigpen's drumming rips through the speakers and pulls me even deeper into these spectacular performances.
