Hi Charlie :

As I was reading this post  my CD player played Abbey Lincoln's version of 
"If I  only had a Brain"

Not everyone's OKOM but nonetheless,
Wonderful Jazz   with the nimble fingered Marc Cary on Piano,John Ormond 
bass,Alvester Garnett, drums.   

Other cuts include Nicholas Payton trumpet & Flugelhorn, Bobby Hutherson, 
vibes and marimba, James Hurt,  on a  piano and Michale Bowie  on bass, for two 
cuts, and Daniel Moreno on some very tasty  percussion, Maggie Brown on 
background vocals.

Nice sounds for a Misty Drizzeled Friday Afternoon in Northern California

Cheers,

Tom Wiggins
