Thanks, Marek, for the memory! I've got to get a hold of that LP someday. It was my VERY first taste of Condon-esque, I was in high school, my only extensive exposure to jazz was mainstream big bands, and the day I checked that LP out of the library and put the needle on the first track, "That's a Plenty", -- it honestly scared the shit out of me! It took another decade or more before I gave Eddie another chance, and even then he was still an acquired taste. Today, I can't get enough!
