Understood. 🤐

Ok folks, our forum protocols is that we don't bitch about a seller's asking price. Period If the price is met, good for the seller. If it is not, then message sent. Either way, the asking price is entirely the seller's prerogative.

Kenny Garrett & ,Lockjaw are instantly recognizable. I'll have a full listen when I get back home.

Very cheerful set. 1. Really familiar, pretty sure it's Abdullah Ibrahim. Is it The Wedding? 2. Woody Shaw instantly entered my mind and I think that's who this is. If I'm right, it might be Carter Jefferson on alto. 3. Vibes color the groove of this largish group. Maybe a recent Blue Note with Joel Ross 4. Piano and trumpet or flugelhorn. Piano florid and virtuosic, but later than Art Tatum. Roy Hargrove and Mulgrew Miller? 5. Tablas. First thought was Dave Liebman, but the recording sounds newer than the Liebman ECMs and not particularly ECM at that. Lets go with Charles Lloyd 6. Clarinet. Eddie Daniels? 7. Another familiar tune over a percolating rhythm section with the bass out front, suspect 90s or later recording. Guitar instead of piano, but hard bop nevertheless. I don't know of any Joshua Redman with a trumpet, but cant find a better guess. 8. Charles Tolliver? 9. The question is "Who does that?" and I don't know. As if Kip Hanrahan swore off smouldering sensuality in favor of absurdist humor. Was (Not Was)? 10. Better than Anything. With no real clue, I'll say Roberta Gambarini 11. This harkens back to Basie and/or the Black and Blue label. Eddie Lockjaw Davis? 12. Joe Lovano?

"NOW I said it!!" 😆 AL East race set to sizzle over the next four weeks!

I'd welcome a Malik box. (I had the [Ahmed] box and sold it off--was not my thing).

This would be very welcome.

Duke Ellington and his Orchestra “In Grona Lund 1963” Storyville 2 cd set, disc 2

A bit warmer this morning. Slept in. . . a lot of fresh air with like minds yesterday had me worn out enough. Re-listening to this excellent album to start the day. I love the way it is recoded and the playing is very entertaining.

But there is another saying that us collectors ought to heed every now and then: "He who lets himself be carried away will be lost!" (Before collecting turns into "hoarding of many things" )
