Posted 3 July (edited) Charlie Parker, On Dial, volume 3 (Spotlight) Presenting Red Mitchell (Contemporary). Unfortunately, the original cover was not included but I could not resist a deep groove mono copy for $4. Edited 3 July by kh1958 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

It's a lot better than I remember it, worth a listen definitely. it's quite beefy in parts, a bit like the early Garbarek Quartet ECMs which isn't much of a surprise. If it were reissued today Stranger Than Paradise would have it in the 'Spiritual Jazz' (which it isn't) section and rave about it... I've been mulling a major sifting of the LP collection and had this in mind as a "to sell", not now Edited 4 July by mjazzg Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Stenson with beef sounds compelling enough to at least try. 3 minutes ago, mjazzg said: If it were reissued today Stranger Than Paradise would have it in the 'Spiritual Jazz' (which it isn't) section and rave about it...

Posted 4 July Rena Rama - New Album [Dragon, Sweden 1986] Dragon really pushing the boat out on graphic design and titling for this album. Not as good as the previous one posted, this may well go on the "to sell" pile. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

JK West Coast jazz is my main direction and the Contemporary label an important part of my collection. These are my Red Mitchell albums under his name as leader. But he is a very important musician in the complete West Coast scene and can be found on many Items.

Posted 7 July Lou Donaldson - Blues Walk (Blue Note/Disc Union). I ordered this from a Japanese seller after the word came out that the recent reissue in the Classic Vinyl series is cut too hot. I paid too much for this, but it's my favorite Donaldson date and I didn't have another version on vinyl. This sounds pretty great. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

JK excellent record that I haven't dug out in years -- actually had forgotten about the kitty on the cover, which is strange because I am rather cat-obsessed!
