  1. I can't get rapidshare to work at the moment, so here's Zippyshare for the moment, until I can get another upload completed;

  2. Oh my god, thank you. Mal Waldron is one of my very favorites, the best piano player in jazz to me (that means, maybe some pianists are objectively "better", but he's the best in my head). I have (counting) at least 67 albums that have Mal at lead or co-lead.... and this one is not one of them. Until now.

    Thank you, thank you, thank you.

  6. Thanks for this! Im a big fan of Waldron.
    Looking at the covers makes me wonder if Dizzy Reece "From in to Out" has been shared. Any ideas?
