  1. Little Penguin Shiraz 2005 with my diner. Australian Reds rule!
  2. I believe there was a similar topic already, but coudn't find it, so I open a new one. Look at the following links & try to find any reasonable explanation to it. http://cgi.ebay.com/ws/eBayISAPI.dll?ViewI...A:IT&ih=011 http://www.amazon.com/Complete-Norman-Gran...5006327?ie=UTF8 http://www.yourmusic.com/browse/album/Vari...e=SEARCH_ALBUMS
  3. In no particular order: Jan Garbarek- Afric Pepperbird Paul Bley- Open To Love Keith Jarrett- Bremen/Lousanne Solo Concerts Vinny Golia- Spirits in Fellowship Abdullah Ibrahim- Children Of Africa Billy Harper- Black Saint Charles Tyler- Voyage From Jericho Dave Holland- Conference Of The Birds Ganelin Trio- Catalogue (though most of their output is 80's legacy). John Klemmer- Nexus (knowing Klemmer's kinda lame reputation of late this one is gotta be heard to be believed, but it's a killer).
  4. Spinning today's fresh catch. Right now- Guido Manusardi- Downtown. Up next- Fred Hersh- Sarabande, Bill Evans- At Town Hall. Yeah, gonna make it a night of piano trios.
  5. Thanks. I've been there but wasn't that impressed. I think Nice Books & Records is better, especially for vinyl. They have stores in Carrboro, Durham & Raleigh. Also CD Alley in Carrboro/Chapel Hill is the one I'm about to check. Have you been there? Do they sell any vinyl? If you go to Nice Price Books be sure to say hello to Boardmember sjarrell.....Sandy is a regular contributor and a nice guy. He could probably help you out concerning the local jazz scene.Regards, Which store is it? The one in Chapel Hill or the one in Raleigh? I second that!

  7. Here are suggested substitutes (or should I say antidotes) for some "jazz standards we don't like". For all you Jitterbug Waltz haters here is Jitterbug Boy from this album And then there is Stella By Barlite on that one.
  8. I moved here few months ago and looking for familiar sights & sounds. Any suggestions of clubs, jazz events, record/CD stores in the area (Raleigh-Durham-Chapel Hill)? Thanks.
  9. A bit late perhaps, but canadian Verge probably has the best prices for Ogun. They also carry gazillions of other rare titles of jazz, avantgarde & experimental music. https://www.vergemusic.com Harry Miller box is $36 (canadian dollars!)
  10. Beside original version on "The Shape Of Jazz To Come", the one from this album is one of the best IMO. It is a trio with John Lindberg on bass and Thurman Barker on drums. Also Lester Bowie has a hilarious rendition on this album. I also second the Naked City one. That whole album is a classic Zorn, cover and all.
  11. Beside Ornette's & MJQ versions there must be quite a few other artists who recorded that masterpiece of a song. What versions do you own? What are your favorites?
  12. On CLOSE YOUR EYES, THERE'S NO GREATER LOVE, BROTHER JOHN'S BLUES & I GOT IT BAD Ben is with a trio of Kenny Drew- piano Nils O. Pedersen- bass Alex Riel- drums The rest of the album is the pick-up band of Danish musicians. Here are their names: Arnved Meyer- trumpet John Darville- trombone Ole Konsted- tenor Niels Jorgen Steen- piano Hugo Rasmussen or Henrik Hartman- bass Hans Nymand- drums Now that I dug that baby up I might give it a spin.
  13. Mosaic sets still have long way to go to reach these heights. http://cgi.ebay.com/ws/eBayISAPI.dll?ViewI...em=320024388278
  14. Liberty's is definitely an original US release. As for Pathe I've done a quick research just out of curiosity. Here is the link FYU. [url=http://www.popsike.com/php/detaildata.php?itemnr=4004976326] Could that hefty price tag indicate that you're dealing with original French release here or is it just the gullibility of jazz newbies?
