Great, but I like Filles even more.

I was wondering if there were any other jazz releases from the late 80s A&M series that included the Roach/Gillespie - Paris 1989, Cecil Taylor - In Florescence and Don Cherry - Art Deco albums? All three are fantastic so I'm hoping there's more.

George Shearing - The Shearing Piano (Capitol) Sounded nice enough at 5:30am.

I'll take October.

You can buy the majority of her material in 3 or 4 sets: The Complete Columbia: http://www.amazon.com/Lady-Day-Complete-Columbia-Golden/dp/B0029XIWCY/ref=sr_1_1?ie=UTF8&qid=1328713477&sr=8-1 The Complete Decca: http://www.amazon.com/Billie-Holiday-Complete-Decca-Recordings/dp/B000003N36/ref=pd_sim_m_2 The Complete Commodore: http://www.amazon.com/Complete-Commodore-Recordings-Billie-Holiday/dp/B0000001NM/ref=sr_1_1?ie=UTF8&qid=1328713665&sr=8-1 The Complete Verve: http://www.amazon.com/Complete-Billie-Holiday-Verve-1945-1959/dp/B0000046P3/ref=sr_1_7?ie=UTF8&qid=1328713604&sr=8-7 While the Columbia set does run 10 discs, it is among the greatest of all jazz box sets and for $25 it's a no-brainer. Master Take editions are available for all but the Decca. There's also this monster which pulls most of this together in master takes: http://www.amazon.com/Complete-Masters-1933-Billie-Holiday/dp/B005NNJK0K/ref=sr_1_5?ie=UTF8&qid=1328713714&sr=8-5 Start with the Columbia, but get them all!

Bud Shank & Bob Cooper - Blowin' Country (World Pacific)

The acts were The Remains, Heeb, Cyrkle, and the Ronettes. Pretty solid bill!

Don Pullen-George Adams Quartet - Song Everlasting (Blue Note)

Amazon has all of them in the 25-35$ range.

Saw/heard Doug and Duke in Copenhagen in 1980. Must be a good memory. Listening to his first recording, he played very well at 21 years of age. I haven't kept up with his recent playing. Perhaps I should do so. Spitting image of his dad.

Jimmy Lyons & Andrew Cyrille - "Take The A Train" Just wonderful.

I agree, these are very underrated

Very, very worth it. I won one a few months ago for about $30. But eBay being what it is that could turn into $75 this time around. But good luck!!

I agree and have no problem with that. I'll go there if nothing shakes out.

I saw that. Did you just get a CD, or did it come with at least a fascimile of the artwork? $15 for just a CDR seems excessive.

Looking for these two discs, one or both, for a decent price. Just PM me with an offer if you're looking to sell.

Waiting on the hatOLOGY edition, CLICHES, to arrive in the mail Shorn a couple tracks, but it looks like a good one.

GEORGE E LEWIS above all else. Second on MRA, Hemphill, Bang & Lowe. Would also like to see Ran Blake, Andrew Cyrille, more David Murray, John Lindberg, Dave Douglas, and Hamiet Bluiett.

Revelation. If you're looking to unload them ... RIP to Mr Fischer, as well. An original thinker for certain.

Bought this one a few years back but never listened til now. Albam describes the program as more concert style than jazz and he's certainly right, but it's a nice listen indeed. Just goes to show how supreme musicians can elevate something that would've otherwise been sure syrup.

Worse are the Selects. But again, thats a different thread.

February 10 2009 Paul Chambers - Paul Chambers Quintet Grant Green - Grant's First Stand Jackie McLean - One Step Beyond Leo Parker - Rollin' With Leo Horace Parlan - Up And Down Stanley Turrentine - A Chip of the Old Block February 24 2009 Grant Green - Street of Dreams Jackie McLean - Bluesnik Grachan Moncur III - Some Other Stuff Horace Silver - The Tokyo Blues Baby Face Willette - Stop And Listen Tony Williams - Spring

Also worth mentioning is RIP, RIG & PANIC with Kirk, Davis, Byard & Jones. That one is a bitch. One of the most hard-driving, ass-kicking jazz records ever made largely due to the rhythm. Goddamn. I should probably know -- but were Byard, Davis and Dawson (all three) on any other (non-Ervin) dates together? They are on the Jaki Byard Experience LP along with Roland Kirk

I knew someone here would have it and I'm not surprised it's you I'll keep my eyes ever peeled on eBay. I've had tremendous luck scoring Carter LPs at auction dirt cheap with no competition whatsoever. As always, Buy It Now prices for the very same records are stratospheric.
