      The thematic collections of mood music issued by 32 Jazz are drawn from fine jazz records of the past few decades, and they often include performances of serene beauty. Jazz for a Rainy Afternoon tends toward moody, minor-key tunes, some of them touched by an inner luminosity. Pianists Charles Brown and Hank Jones take very different approaches to Thelonious Monk's best known ballads--"Round Midnight" and "Ruby My Dear"--while there's a subtle, burnished glory in the sounds of trumpeters Wallace Roney, Warren Vache, and Woody Shaw. Guitarist Jimmy Ponder's solo version of "Tribute to a Rose" has a special intimacy, and saxophonist Houston Person and bassist Ron Carter have a thoughtful musical conversation on "Spring Can Really Hang You Up the Most." --Adam Rains
