Posted 26 June Cy Touff – His Octet & Quintet I cleared out a lot of records today; over thirty. Short sharp and brutal. My four year old son had tears in his eyes thinking that I might sell Jump Up Calypso by Harry Belafonte, but I took pity. Then I took myself to Alan's on the Finchley Road, and bought myself this as a consolation prize. I've been going through a Kamuca phase for a while and this is the first time I've seen a record of his in the wild other than the Shelly Manne live set.

Posted 26 June 2 hours ago, jazzcorner said: I came very close to buying this the last time someone brought this up and I found it darn hard to find. It's also very short (~28 minutes). Never on CD that I'm aware. Take a listen to it here and see if you think it's worth paying the current asking prices for it: Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Rab, If you're on a Richie Kamuca kick, you might want keep an eye out for this LP: The Richie Kamuca Quartet - Richie (Concord, 1977) with Mundell Lowe (g), Monty Budwig (b), and Nick Ceroli (d) The Concord LP is actually a reissue. Originally, it was issued on the tiny, L.A.-based Jazzz label as Richard Kamuca: 1976. Like a slug of good whiskey, it goes down smooth and makes you feel warm.

I know that one, and am definitely on the lookout for it. Kamuca records (other than the Shelly Manne set) are hard to find. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Posted 10 July Yesterday, I picked up a few things from the newly-reopened Bull Moose Music in Portsmouth, NH. LPs Paul Desmond - Summertime (A&M/CTI) Paul Desmond - Bridge Over Troubled Water (A&M). Bought this on an All Music Guide recommendation. It's good - not great - and I only thought one track was "eh" ("America"). Duke Ellington - Meets Coleman Hawkins (Impulse!/Analogue Productions). This is the recent reissue. CDs Al Cohn/Zoot Sims - From A To Z - And Beyond (RCA) Stan Getz - The Song Is You (Laserlight Digital). This one was bought after the discussions here. It is pretty good stuff. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
