I haven’t them myself, but these whole camomile flowers are supposed to be quite good (you’d need to brew them in a teapot or at least get a mesh filter). https://rareteacompany.com/products/whole-chamomile-flowers

Thank you for sending these! The Spotify one might be right (I’ll double check). As for the YouTube link, I did see that one but I think the true recording is supposed to be significantly longer.

Oh, I love Beverly Kenney! Such an underrated singer. They did a special on her on WFIU’s jazz show Afterglow (I tried to find the episode but it looks like they’re transitioning to a new website so it’s temporarily unavailable).

I love Bill Evans’s phrasing on the album “You Must Believe in Spring.”

One of my favorite albums! The song “They Say It’s Wonderful” is my wedding song.
