Update to my post of 21 October 2009: The John Windhurst "Jazz At Columbus Ave" Transition LP was reissued on a mini-LP CD by the Japanese (THCD-127). If you are interested in collecting Transition Label CDs or LPs please contact me.

Many thanks for the info. What is the story behind the Chazzer LPs? They seem to be a miscellaneous collection of live sessions. The album notes are worthless. Are the LPs rare? Stonewall15.

Need help identifying the 15 tracks. Who? What? When? Where? Please PM me.

Do they sell on the internet? If they do this would be a great source for U.S. and other countries to get hard-to-find Japanese CDs.

Amazon has this available as an MP3 download for $3.56.

Looking for LP or CD. Please PM me or email at hershia@cfl.rr.com

I learned excel using the "Excel 2007 For Dummies" book. I am sure a similar one exists for 2003.

Jack Kelly "Badinage". Jubliee label 10-inch LP JLP-21. Valuable because is extremely rare solo piano sessions by New York pianist Jack Kelly.

I use a Microsoft excel spread-sheet. You can have as many data fields that you want. Easy to learn and easy to use.

I agree with previous posts about the superiority of Shorty's early recordings. A nice, low-price, box set of early recordings is the Membran Quadromania 4-CD set. PM me for more details.

Many thanx to all of you responders- you are a terrific source of information! Dan (Stonewall15).

I recently acquired this LP. The first 3 cuts are by Thelonious Monk in 1948- he is accompanied by a trumpet player. The album notes do not say who accompanies Monk. It sounds like it could be Fats or Dizzy. Does anyone know the answer? Additionally, the last track is a Charlie Parker version of "Night In Tunisia" (mis-labeled as "Blue 'n' Boogie"). Does anyone know who played besides Bird? Last question- how rare are these recordings- are they released elsewhere? Is this LP worth anything?

Did anyone manage to record the 1955 Herman/Garner session before it was removed? If so, please contact me, either by PM or email hershia@cfl.rr.com. Thanx, Dan.

I agree with David Utevsky's post. There is nothing like a live DJ playing jazz. Radio station WUCF-FM 89.9 (Orlando) has live disc jockeys playing jazz from 6am to 6pm every day. They even take requests. WUCF-FM streams on the internet and is available everywhere. You can't beat this station!

Collectables reissued 2 Columbia Denny Zeitlin LPs (Cathexis and Carnival)on 1 CD. They left out 4 songs from Carnival. They did reveal this on the liner notes, but I bought this CD thinking I would get both LPs complete and was I surprised! Unfortunately I didn't get the notes until after I bought the CD.

I am looking for 2 LPs: MG-36121 Jimmy Raney/George Wallington "Swingin' In Sweden" and MG-12145 Duke Jordan "Do It Yourself Jazz". Please PM me if you are interested in selling one or both. Thanx, Dan.

CDs (147 and 158) received from Mike- both in good shape. Great deal, fast delivery!

Looking to buy this LP. I am not interested in the 2-LP Savoy reissue. MG-12145 features a trio with Duke Jordan on one side and a trio with Hall Overton on the other. There is no sax player on either side. Please PM me or email me at hershia@cfl.rr.com. Dan.

How about Curtis Counce "Exploring The Future" LP/CD? I suggest tracks titled "Into The Orbit" or "Race For Space". LP number is Dooto DTL-247

I would never put an original CD in any car CD player. I make a CDR and then if a problem occurs I have only lost a copy and have not damaged or lost the original.

Anybody looking for Jack Kelly 10-inch Jubilee LP titled "Badinage"? If so, PM me. Dan.

WOW- Contemporary Records existed before the Civil War.

The Milt Jackson Impulse LP "Memphis Jackson" is terrific. Too bad it has not been reissued on CD.

I own this 10-inch Jubilee LP (LP-21), titled "Badinage". This is a solo piano session by Jack Kelly recorded in 1955. I have not been able to find any biographical information about this obscure pianist. Can anyone help?

Amazon has just listed a new reissue of "Southern Scene". The write-up says that the CD also includes a complete reissue of "The Riddle". "The Riddle" has never been released on CD. The CD will be released on July 13.
