TheMusicalMarine Posted March 25, 2005 Report Share Posted March 25, 2005 Just curious. I know for many of us the 'to buy' list is far beyond what we can spare financially. My apologies if this belongs in another forum. I'd probably buy a number of OJCs and the Jazz Oracles that I'm missing. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jazzmoose Posted March 25, 2005 Report Share Posted March 25, 2005 If I had an unexpected $1000 to spend, I think I'd go nuts and try to blow it all on one artist that is severely underrepresented on my shelves. Right now, I'd say it would be Sun Ra. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rooster_Ties Posted March 25, 2005 Report Share Posted March 25, 2005 If I had to spend it on CD's, you know The Bastards™ would probably get a big ol' healthy chunk of it, maybe upwards of $400, or $500 even. (Maybe not all in the same order -- but over a couple months time, sure!!) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Big Wheel Posted March 25, 2005 Report Share Posted March 25, 2005 Yeah, if I had $1000 right now to spend, at a time when the Fantasy catalog appears in limbo, I'd probably pick up: Jimmy Woods--Conflict Jaki Byard--Experience, Hi-Fly, Here's Jaki, Freedom Together Hal Singer--Blue Stompin Roy Haynes--We Three Harold Land--The Fox Walt Dickerson--To My Queen At least one of the Randy Weston Prestige records Sonny Criss--Sonny'd Dream At least one Curtis Counce Contemporary record At least one Booker Ervin record with Jaki Byard Bobby Timmons--Trio in Person At least one Shelly Manne Blackhawk record Tommy Flanagan--Overseas One of the early Cal Tjader records Gigi Gryce--Rat Race Blues Kenny Drew Trio Machito--Mucho Macho One of the Memphis Slim albums Two Elmo Hope albums Roland Kirk--Kirk's Work At least one Phineas Newborn record Frank Rosolino--Free For All Rene Thomas--Guitar Groove After all that I'd probably have about $600 left. Much of it would go toward much more recent stuff. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Free For All Posted March 25, 2005 Report Share Posted March 25, 2005 Why, I'd buy 76.982294 copies of Boogaloo Sisters!

sidewinder Posted March 25, 2005 Report Share Posted March 25, 2005 The whole 'Free America' series and a copy of every in-print Mosaic set (except the Frosch) ! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

bertrand Posted March 25, 2005 Report Share Posted March 25, 2005 For $1,000, you would barely make a dent in the Braxton discography!!! 3 words: Mosaic, Mosaic, Mosaic. Bertrand. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mikeweil Posted March 25, 2005 Report Share Posted March 25, 2005 I'd buy all the Mosaic Selects I want (haven't got a single one of them so far!) and spend the rest on my Fantasy catalog wish list. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
7/4 Posted March 25, 2005 Report Share Posted March 25, 2005 For $1,000, you would barely make a dent in the Braxton discography!!! My database shows that I have 66 titles and I want more! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The guy can play and that's a great album worth at least one tenth of that price. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

John Tapscott Posted March 25, 2005 Report Share Posted March 25, 2005 No doubt about it. The folks in Stamford Ct. would be hearing from me. Mostly black boxes, but a few Selects, as well. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
