Johnny Griffin is an American tenor saxophonist who, together with the pianist KennyDrew, first came to Poland in 1963 as the star of the Jazz Jamboree festival. The presented double album contains just recordings from Jazz Jamboree'63. These are very interesting performances of jazz standards with wonderful long Griffin solos and a lively audience response. It's great to listen to.

Townes Van Zandt was a one-of-a-kind artist who blazed a new trail for singer/songwriters, conjuring a sound that combined elements of country and folk with his own artful melodic sensibility, matched with lyrics that were personal, poetic, and impressionistic while remaining firmly down to earth. A new breed of Texas singer/songwriters followed Van Zandt's example, and it's all but impossible to imagine artists like Guy Clark, Jimmie Dale Gilmore, or Steve Earle finding their voice without his guiding influence. This two-disc set features Van Zandt's first two albums, 1968's For the Sake of the Song and 1969's Our Mother the Mountain.
