Joe Sample - Invitation
I got this CD as a gift back in the mid 1990's. It is raining like crazy and I felt like some good jazz music. Never played it. It was still wrapped in plastic until today.
It is a compilation of remakes of jazz standards. Some Duke Ellington, Burt Bacharach, Gershwin, here is a list of songs. "Black Is the Color" (Traditional folk song) - 3:53 "A House Is Not a Home" (Burt Bacharach, Hal David) - 4:57 "Come Rain or Come Shine" (Harold Arlen, Johnny Mercer) - 5:07 "Invitation" (Bronisław Kaper) - 4:21 "Summertime" (George Gershwin, Ira Gershwin, DuBose Heyward, Dorothy Heyward) - 6:49 "Nica's Dream" (Horace Silver) - 5:20 "Stormy Weather" (Harold Arlen, Ted Koehler) - 5:01 "Django" (John Lewis) - 3:45 "My One and Only Love" (Guy Wood, Robert Mellin) - 6:12 "Mood Indigo" (Duke Ellington, Barney Bigard, Irving Mills) - 4:26 Nice job Joe and the gang for this great compilation of jazz music. Perfect for a rainy day.

Remember him from the Jazz Crusaders days, but haven't listened to him in a good long while. Might just have to check the album out!
