Music, All You Can Eat

If you haven't heard of Project Playlist it's a site that aggregates shared mp3s from around the internet and incorporates them into a embedded playlist that will link you to both the mp3s and the albums on Amazon. My main playist has just been updated with as much ballin' hardcore melodic psycho lovely frantic fantastical madness as it could fit. Enjoy.

Cover Art: Art Van Damme Quintet: Martini Time

Martini Time by Art Van Damme Quintet
(click for larger version)

Columbia
CL 630
No year listed.
Corner of cover says "Photograph by Dirone".

Quote from the back:
"One way or another, the work of his quintet satisfies just about every tassel on the fringe of public taste, and produces music that pleases all standards without infuriating any. Ordinarily this would seem necessarily [sic] to produce an emasculated product, but in the case of Art Van Damme the evidence is all to the contrary. His music is strong in its impulse, lively in invention, and flashing with honest jazz."

The music, unfortunately, is accordion jazz. Just terrible.
