Japanese reissue of this forthcoming:

I finished "Listening To Prestige" earlier today. It was definitely the type of book I was able to read on and off over a number of weeks . Much of the book's discussion of musicians who recorded for Prestige was familiar to me, though every so often I discovered something of which I was unaware. As I said in a previous post, the book caused me to listen to some albums on Prestige that I had not heard in a long long time. Though I would not consider the book an essential read for jazz fans, I did enjoy it and am glad I read it.

John Coltrane, Archie Shepp, Bob Thiele, August 1964, RVG studio

Grateful Dead, April 14, 1972, Tivoli Gardens, Copenhagen, disc 3

One more bump. $90 plus media mail. Paypal F/F. Thanks.

hmmm hope I get mine soon and then I will have to decide ... set aside the Prestige book to read this first or continue on and then move on to the KD? I have barely cracked Listening to Prestige. Not that it doesn't strike me as something one could pick up and set down and read very piecemeal.

Mine has shipped.

I had forgotten that Rufus Harley was an interesting (enough) tenor player!

Just Checked Amazon - Whistle Stop is $99. for the Hard Back, and $30. for the paperback. Did not see and eBook mentioned.

Yeah, mine arrived Wednesday last week. I ordered another book from them at the same time that was in stock and that came near immediately. Hope you get your copy soon.

Well done. I was honing in on the drummer as the key but I've never heard of Billy Abner and wouldn't have gotten this.

Op.18/1 and Op.127

9. I got it. Super rare, it's "Taurus the 20th" from Rufus Harley "Scotch & Soul".

I thought it was coming in April? I better get it soon. Even though it was a pre-order, I already paid.

Alan Broadbent loved working with her. She died far too young, but left some great recordings.

+1, fascinating album.

I always liked Kral Space (not too crazy about the cover, though)

Stravinskij, Ravel, Debussy from this box. Meyer is the greatest as she never overplays the score.

My preorder came in last week. Have yet to crack it open beyond a quick scan however.

There also is a version of "On The Alamo" from November 1965 on the "Suitably Zoot" LP on Pumpkin 108. Plus one on the "The Swinger" album on Pablo from December 1979. Looks like a personal favorite indeed.
