Tony, in my humble opinion the Nichols is worth much more than 36 bucks! Please keep us posted when you have listened!
And if you like it, start hunting Nichols' last album, on Bethlehem, "Love, Gloom, Cash, Love", with Dannie Richmond and George Duvivier. If you're lucky you can still find the 2000 (or was it 1999?) reissue done by Avenue Jazz/Rhino.
