I doubled down on the derp and forgot to make the votes public.

Sunny Shippy Ships is everything I love about jazz. Every single moment on this album is dripping in raw emotion, freedom, beauty, energy, virtuosity, thoughtful communication, and atmosphere. Every player on this album is a goddamn beast prying open the doors of their instruments, finding hallways that were mostly unexplored at the time. This record takes me places. It's so pure that listening to it is like drinking a glass of water. It's so amazing that it's like drinking a glass of water when you're on the brink of giving in to dehydration. 100/10
