  1. Yes, I like this album. I only realised yesterday that it's 3/5 of the band from "Harold In The Land Of Jazz" (swap Jack Sheldon and Curtis Counce for Rolf Ericson and Leroy Vinnegar). Both excellent albums anyway, Land and Perkins are always worth listening to, IMO
  2. Yes, that's the one, beautiful
  3. I forget the name of the ballad (and of the clarinettist) on that LP, but it is a beautiful-sounding thing
  4. Royal Oak

    Jutta Hipp

    Nice ^
  5. Ace thread, I've been here 9 years and never seen it before.
  6. Mayweather - McGregor is a relatively cheap £20 here in the UK, broadcast by Sky
  7. I have had a few over the years, sold some when I should have hung on them a bit longer. The blue and silver label is the sexiest label in vinyl, IMO
  8. We're having our usual Northern English summer, uncomfortably hot for one day, wet and cool for three!
  9. Ah, didn't know it was defunct.
  10. Obviously no Howard Johnsons here, but the mere mention of the name makes me think of Zappa's "Billy The Mountain", with Flo and Eddie squeaking "Howard Johnsons Howard Johnsons Howard Johnsons"
  11. The Costco hot dog is my favourite hot dog ever, £1.50 here. Talking of 5 Guys, we went on Saturday - it was undoubtedly a top-notch burger, but at over £40 for four of us (2 adults, 2 children) it's a once-a-year job.
  12. Tadd Dameron - Dameronia (Prestige)
  13. Who knew eh?
  14. Seriously - Eric Dolphy is big in skateboarding circles?
  15. Tony Hatch is very well-heard (not sure if he's very well-known) here in the UK, having written the theme tunes to three long-running soaps, two of which are still going today. Also, on the "Call Me" theme...
  16. Sonny Rollins Vol 1 - later blue label press
  17. Alan Minter Joe Bugner John Conteh
  18. It's a nice album, isn't it?
  19. Mine is actually the UK issue on Parlophone, couldn't find a pic though
