	JC-CD3042
		Subtitled "Jazz Nocturne 5," this is the fifth of five CDs taken from soprano-saxophonist Sidney Bechet's stay in 1945 at Boston's Savoy Café, and the second one in which he uses Peter Bocage on trumpet.
		This 1999 CD has three radio broadcasts including one on May 15 that, due to Pops Foster's absence, has valve trombonist Brad Gowans in his place (as if he could really fill in for a string bass).
		Actually Gowans' presence does make the ensembles more exciting, but without Foster, drummer Thompson was inspired to bang away excessively on his bass drum and pianist Parker's striding is purposely heavier.
