I saw _Jazz on a Summer's Day_ for the second time last week, and then posted on Facebook how much I loved "The Train and the River" over the opening credits. Sounds like Henry Flynt at the beginning!



if you like this footage, the Trav’lin’ Light release is the same trio and the same vibe.

The 70’s IAI records with Bley are really nice, esp the trio record: with Bley and guitarist Bill Connors.

Train and the River is def one of the highlights of that film for me, along with the Chico Hamilton performance and the Gerry Mulligan performance. Really it makes a pretty good case over all for "Cool" school jazz, which was sort of avoided in jazz education at the time I was studying.
