Some of the Paris souvenir shops that also sell CDs and videos have several of the Masters of Jazz CDs for sale at discount prices (from 3 to €7) depending on which store you visit.

These have appeared lately after the distributor which sold these excellent volumes went belly up. I am busy now completing some of the series. Recent purchases have included:

- volume 9 of the Count Basies series (Jan.-Feb. 1939),

- volume 2 of the Benny Carter series (1931-1933)

- volume 12 of the Duke Ellington series (October 1930-January 1931),

- volume 7 of the Jelly Roll Morton series (1929-1930),

- volume 9 of the Dizzy Gillespie series (March 1946-July 1947)

Small quantities of these Masters show up at various souvenir shops and are nowhere to be seen in the regular record stores.

It's Saturday evening here in the UK. Millions of shoppers have arrived home laden with 'stuff'. Some of them may be enjoying their new purchases, others may be searching for the receipt in order to exchange it tomorrow (in the UK now, Saturday and Sunday are almost interchangeable, except for car-boot sales and 'Antiques Roadshow').

So. What music did you buy?

I'm aware that many of you may have huge stockpiles of records in a queue and lots of you may buy online. Me? No music today. Next week maybe.

Cheers, tonym.

This morning I sent a check off to San Diego jazz pianist/educator Rick Helzer for his new release -- soon to be available on 9 Winds.

Rick, besides being a great player, has a very inventive mind and is well known locally for writing treacherous material. Word from a player on this session is that he outdid himself with this one! Inasmuch as he was bringing in players from out of town, he produced rehearsal "play along" discs for them to practice with due to the restrictions on rehearsal time.

Can't wait to give this one a listen!
