Here`s another good one: Morris Nanton's Something We've Got! This is a wonderful vintage Prestige side that's almost completely unknown and long forgotten these days - quite unfairly so, as it features some of Nanton's best playing as he gets the opportunity to stretch out on some more extended tracks. It's also nice listening for your holiday downtime and seasonal celebrations. Excellent fidelity off the original stereo Prestige vinyl, I include a Nanton discography for your reference.
