Bill Frisell, Have a Little Faith, 1993 on Elektra Nonesuch

Frisell on guitar, joined by Don Byron (clarinet, bass clarinet), Guy Klucevskek (accordion), Kermit Driscoll (bass), and Joey Baron (drums). Covers a wide variety of sounds here including some Aaron Copeland from his ballet Billy the Kid, two excepts from Charles Ive’s orchestral Three Places in New England, plus Dylan, Muddy Waters, Sonny Rollins, and John Hiatt.

I love the B and C sides – for me the orchestral side is my least favorite but the title track (a John Hiatt song) and the Sonny Rollins track are great.

My copy is the Vinyl Me Please Classics vinyl issue (the first on vinyl) from 2024, which is a 3-sided vinyl (one side is an etching) and includes lacquer cut by Ryan Smith at Sterling Sound.

Since I have #RaymondScott on the brain, I looked up a record I loved and haven't listed to in a long time.

#BugMusic by #DonByron. The gist is -- a modern jazz brainiac plays super-tricky wacky swing-era and postwar oddities, including Raymond Scott. Quite delightful.
