I'm in the mode of filling in the numerous gaps in my knowledge of jazz, and have subscribed...

As a matter of consumer reporting, these songs are now only available as part of Mosaic Select 8: Duke Pearson , a three CD set., and in used record shops. Duke Pearson was a talented composer and keyboard player, who recorded three great...
