Plays a Gallery of Seldom Heard Tunes by Irving Berlin by The Dave Pell Octet, released on Trend in 1953

David Pell (February 26, 1925 – May 7, 2017) was an American jazz saxophonist, bandleader and record producer. He was best known for leading a cool jazz octet in the 1950s.

In 1953, he began working with his own ensembles, mostly as an octet with Pell on tenor saxophone, another saxophone (either a baritone or an alto), trumpet, trombone, guitar, and a piano-bass-drums rhythm section).[2] Among the octet players were Pepper Adams, Benny Carter, Mel Lewis, Red Mitchell, Marty Paich, Art Pepper and, early his career, John Williams. - Wikipedia

After years of our political obsession, culture wars, and a never-ending election cycle, it’s tempting to look away from the latest warning signs. But don’t. This stuff with Kanye is a big deal. Why? Because people agree with him and his hate loosens up the restrictions on theirs. You’re sick of Trump. Rightfully so. But ...
