Steely Dan. Countdown To Ecstasy. On original vinyl from 1973. 
Bruce Springsteen. The Wild,The Innocent & The E Street Shuffle. On vinyl from 1973. Listening to this lately, I think I underrated this album back in the day. It stands up well with anything in Springsteen's discography and the SQ is very good. I wonder if anyone has bought the recently reissued vinyl & how it sounds.
A 1997 recording. Rosnes on the piano is supported by drummer Jack DeJohnette, bassist Christian McBride and saxophonist Chris Potter.

Haven't listened to this one in ages, Ewe. One of their best lineups ever and a great, although short, performance. Thanks for that.
What do you think?

Just as good today as it ever was.

I like it very much. Pity that it is such a short EP playing time wise.

Rick Miller ~ Dark Dreams (2012)
"This was produced in the genre of what I would call Progressive Rock. That term defining the type of music that was made famous throughout the 70s by bands such as Genesis, The Moody Blues and Pink Floyd. The music is soft, dark and melancholy because that's the way I like it. So if you like your Prog Rock with lots of jazz fusion or heavy metal in it, you may not find what you're looking for here." -Rick Miller
