  1. The two Brother John Sellers albums had catalogue numbers 7022 and 8005. The first was folk blues, the second a mix of blues, folk and gospel tunes with a jazz backing, thus placed in the 8000 Jazz Showcase series. 

    Do not ask me why Bobby Henderson's second solo piano album was issued in the 9000 series, I have not heard it, and it cannot be found on discogs:

    Call House Blues : Bobby Henderson (p) solos
      New York, 1957
      Diga diga doo Vanguard VRS9017
      Some of these days         -
      St. Louis blues         -
      A good man is hard to find         -
      Alexander's ragtime band         -
      There'll be some changes made         -

      Baby, won't you please come home ?         -

    That red sock is a nice detail. Maybe not "jazz" enough? 

    Just found this, maybe it's helpful: https://www.bsnpubs.com/new/vanguard.pdf

    Can someone help me figure out what the second Bobby Henderson album is? I can only find one...

    Seems like it isn't listed on discogs:

    83 is a good run. I hope to make it that long,

    Has The Youngbloods self-titled LP really only been issued on CD twice, once in the UK in 1988 and again in 2014 in Japan? That seems unbelievable.

    It does not surprise me. Back in the day I heard Get Together on the radio and liked it, but never saw one of their records in  the shops here.

    I would quibble about the term "disco"...this stuff if definitely for dancing, but it's evolved way past the stereotypical "disco" beats. A lot more parts to the drum patters.

    At least the better stuff is. There's always plenty of shock.

    There are repetitive patterns, to be sure. It is dance music and it is programming. But like anything else some people use use it and others actually work with it, sometimes radically som

     

    This is nice, but in the long run I prefer music made on "real" instruments. I am not up to date on the latest developments in the genre as I lost interest during its disco beat phase.
