  1. Ruby Braff s/t the Dutch edition of "Braff!!", the album with Coleman Hawkins...
  2. here's one more track (Real Gone Mambo) that someone digitized from a 78, https://archive.org/details/78_real-gone-mambo_bill-doggett-trio-bill-doggett-percy-france-shep-shepherd-doggett-s_gbia0007626b
  3. Hot Doggett is apparently another (just googled a bit to get a sense of what you were asking), see the back cover of the French edition on discogs where he's mentioned (but I can't read the text)(this also includes a tune called "Percy Speaks").
  4. This is the jubilee version jazztrain suggests but if the trumpeter is the most talented member of the Don Reed Combo, this must be something else (Chuck Peterson is probably the least known guy in the band). Don Reed the trombonist left some traces online as a Kenton sideman... and Ray Vasquez: wasn't that Anthony Ortega's cousin?
  5. I'm a big fan! Played one of his nephew's albums yesterday evening, too
  6. and two more new acquisitions, both from the stack of cheap tradjazz albums every store here still has, and I think I picked very very well... Jack Teagarden Memorial a French incarnation of the Urania album with Lucky Thompson... and Edmond Hall - Petite Fleur a British version of his UA album...
  7. Jimmy Raney - Here's that rainy day With an excellent rhythm section of Hank Jones, Pierre Michelot and Jimmy Cobb
  8. Mike Wofford Quartet Plays Jerome Kern Bought this for Anthony Ortega ... it's such a pretty record and what I actually like the most are Wofford's own piano solos...
  9. My mother actually has a somewhat narrow but perfectly decent taste in music but some of my friends' parents...
  10. Kallax replaced Expedit a few years ago...
  11. Joe Newman & Billy Byers - New Sounds in Swing one of the perks of buying way too many records is that occasionally you find records on your shelves that you didn't even know existed... I guess I bought this because of Gene Quill... it's a pleasant enough record...
  12. as a side note, those four new reissues are also available on spotify...
  13. I wouldn't call the Brown (which has also been reissued, first by Rhino then by Essential MG) poetry plus jazz, it's more like a Black Panther attempt at propaganda music similar to what was produced in Eastern Europe at the time (other songs are somewhat more successful regarding singing and songwriting but on this one you can nicely hear Tapscott's Arkestra) Edit: another song from the album with a remarkable homemade video
  14. See here: https://nl.wikipedia.org/wiki/Bestand:(Portrait_of_Edwin_A._Finckel,_Ralph_Burns,_Eddie_Sauter,_Johnny_Richards,_Neal_Hefti,_and_George_Handy,_Museum_of_Modern_Art,_New_York,_N.Y.,_ca._Mar._1947)_(LOC)_(5189935102).jpg so from top to bottom and left to right that would give Sauter, Finckel, Handy, Richards, Hefti, Burns
  15. Milt Buckner - Rockin' Again featuring Thornell Schwartz...
  16. at least, you have easy access to the Utrecht record fair... looked for CDs (and not only LPs) there this November for the first time - some pretty amazing deals (Randy Weston Select for 15, Don Wilkerson BN twofer for 5 and more that I forgot...)

    I had the same actually, one of the few jazz records in our household when I was a kid was John Coltrane's Kulu Se Mama which also had pictures of other Impulse albums on the inner sleeve... the name Yusef Lateef among these definitely raised my curiosity
  18. some pages now have what looks like a listing of the participating bands (unfortunately still without the match from line-ups to tracks) https://www.hmv.co.jp/artist_Dodo-Marmarosa_000000000042587/item_On-The-Coast-1945-1947-1952-2CD_9425588 BOYD RAEBURN ALL-STARS: RAY LINN (TPT) BRITT WOODMAN (TBN) ELI 'LUCKY' THOMPSON (TS) DODO MARMAROSA (PNO) HARRY BABASIN (B) JACKIE MILLS (DR) VIVIEN GARRY TRIO: VIVIEN GARRY (B) ARV GARRISON (GTR) WINI BEATTY (PNO) LUCKY THOMPSON QUARTET: LUCKY THOMPSON (TS) DODO MARMAROSA (PNO) HARRY BABASIN (B) JACKIE MILLS (DR) DODO MARMAROSA (SOLO PIANO): DODO MARMAROSA (PNO) DODO MARMAROSA QUARTET: LUCKY THOMPSON (TS) DODO MARMAROSA (PNO) RAY BROWN (B) JACKIE MILLS (DR) DODO MARMAROSA TRIO: DODO MARMAROSA (PNO) BARNEY KESSEL (GTR) GENE ENGLUND (B) LUCKY THOMPSON QUARTET: LUCKY THOMPSON (TS) DODO MARMAROSA (PNO) RED CALLENDER (B) JACKIE MILLS (DR) MISS DANNA ACC.

  19. Nathen Page Plays Pretty For The People
  20. Same here, fascinating material, thanks for the link!
  21. like most of the Matsuli catalogue, these are also on spotify... the Molelekwa album is very much of it's time (late 90s) but definitely interesting... tragic life story...
  22. around the time of Peace Treaty, I wrote some emails with the owner... memory fades a bit, but pretty sure it's the same guy who now does Sam Records, and that he mentioned he would not do CDs again... talking CDs and Nathan Davis, I got the recent reissue of pianist Scott Bradford's Rock Slides this weekend and thoroughly enjoy it... it's a little bit on the heavily produced side but definitely a fun record with strong contributions from Nathan Davis...
  23. I found this 2013 article about both the reissue label and Strata pretty interesting... played some of these planned but unreleased Strata albums on Spotify yesterday (Ron English, Sam Sanders) and really liked them... surprised that this program didn't get more discussion here until now...
