Just before I listened to it, I received a text attachment from my friend who flew to New Orleans. It was a recording of jazz at the Carousel Bar! Sunny Side of the Street.
The recording was incredibly good. Recorded on his iPhone.

But that was Glen. Master of tempi.

None of the lush textures & little of the contrary motion he was known for.
My dad was a big fan, & I've never heard this before.
