More Left Bank treasures?

Hm, Crystal Ballroom = Famous Ballroom? Or was that another venue the Left Bank Jazz Society organized concerts at?

It was my first impulse too, to state just this, but then I don't know the history of LBJS that well and am not aware of the venues in Baltimore etc.

And only a few weeks wait this time?  Awesome!  And it just so happens that Feb 26 is the moving date for Plant City so this is going to be my own personal housewarming gift to myself!!  Better make sure I update my shipping address in Amazon. ;)

So the only question that comes to mind is whether this is a stray Left Bank tape making it's way to Uptown or are there more in the pipeline?

For that matter will we ever see more of the Piccadily tapes? It's like 2 or 3 years since the Hank was released, isn't it?

don't think so - at least not via amazon ... but you can get them fairly cheap at jazzmessenger's:

It's not the price, it's the space. I'm seriously ripping my collection to hard drive at present - African K7s are really hard though and you can't find the sleeves on the web. Life's full of pains in the arse, ain't it?

Do what I do: buy an inexpensive scanner (I have the Epson V300), scan the artwork on the K7s and import them into iTunes or whichever you use.
