Eddie Jefferson – Things Are Getting Better (Full Album)

Things Are Getting Better is an album by vocalist Eddie Jefferson recorded in 1974 and released on the Muse label.

“Singer Eddie Jefferson’s first album in five years finds him doing his best to keep up with the times. Somehow he manages to sing Miles Davis’ “Bitches Brew” (a nearly impossible melody to make much out of) and he also performs “Freedom Jazz Dance” and “Trane’s Blues” in addition to more boppish material (including an exuberant “Things Are Getting Better,” “Night In Tunisia” and “Billie’s Bounce”). The Sly Stone tune “Thank You” is the only trivial selection among the eight reissued on this CD while “I Just Got Back In Town” is based on James Moody’s improvisation to the ballad “I Cover The Waterfront.” The master of vocalese (who was at the peak of his powers during this period) is assisted by trumpeter Joe Newman, Billy Mitchell (on tenor, flute and bass clarinet), keyboardist Mickey Tucker, bassist Sam Jones and drummer Eddie Gladden. A worthy effort.” – Scott Yanow/AllMusic.

Thank you,Harris✨ #Repost @harriselliott ・・・ Back to work be like...a JazzSuit . . The "Jazz Suit" a collaboration with @enharmonictavern_official X 2 piece jumpsuit that zips together at the waist. A hybrid jumpsuit that references an old American college varsity with an American military flying suit. I Named it the jazz suit because I've used varsity style embroidery patches with all of my favourite Jazz Musicians on the arm. I'm not a jazz dancer, but when you jazz dance you need freedom to move, so the jumpsuit is great for all the moves.
