In an interview on Willard Jenkins' blog, The Independent Ear, Robin Kelly states That statement suggests to me that his primary goal in writing about music is not necessarily to provide an in depth analysis of the music. Does the above perspective impact any of the thoughts expressed so far?

I already own about half of this set and would not normally purchase the box set under this circumstances, but at this price it is worth it alone just to get the stuff I do not already own. Just placed my order.

I placed an order with amazon as well.

Last night I was watching the series finale of the HBO Series The Wire (for the second time). There is a scene where the character Bubbles, who lives in his sister's basement, is going up the stairs and we hear the sister's music playing. When she opened the door it hit me - I am almost certain that it was a piece from one of Lafayette Gilchrist's recordings with his primary band - that mixture of jazz, go go and whatever else he is into. It made the sleep I lost when I obsessively stayed up to 2:00 a.m. even that much more worth it. By the way, I recently listened to Soul Progressin. On the surface the concept was not much different than what I heard on The Music According To Lafayette Gilchrist, but with increased exposure to Gilchrist's approach I did find myself getting more out of it this time around. Still something I will need to revisit when time permits.

Sounds like a great night of music!

Thanks for the info. I will try to confirm the date and include the session on the discography. Thanks again.

Thank you very much Lazaro. I should have also included Tranformations in my original inquiry. I own the CD reissue, but the cover was badly damaged in a flood in my home a few years ago and I tossed it. I have the song title and composer info (from the disc) and the allmusic.com listing, but I would like to confirm the accuracy of the personnel and recording date/location info if possible.

I am working on a Bunky Green discography to be published at jazzdiscography.com. There are a couple of sessions as a leader that I can not locate complete information for. Does anyone have either of these OOP LPs and can provide the discographical information? Bunky Green - Visions Vanguard 79413 1978 Bunky Green - In Love Again Mark 57623 1987 Thank you for any help.

They received a bit of discussion on a Chicago Jazz thread by Larry kart a while back, but Jason Adasiewicz, Rolldown and Keefe Jackson's Ready Everyday are both fine recordings that feature Berman. There is also a live set issued by Luminescence that also features a Keefe Jackson set as well.

I just received my fourth order. 14 of 15 items ordered were shipped and I too received the Stitt box.

Wasn't that on Warner Brothers?

Another PM sent.

Follow up PM sent.

PM sent before I saw your last post.

I had another miscellaneous charge on my card as well.

I just received my first shipment from oldies.com. 8 of 14 items ordered were received. Missing from the shipment are: OJC 18622 Curtis Fuller With Red Garland by Curtis Fuller / Red Garland (CD) $4.98 PRS 241202 In A Minor Groove by Dorothy Ashby (CD) $5.98 OJC 1913 The Jaki Byard Experience by Jaki Byard (CD) $4.98 OJC 431 New Ideas by Don Ellis (CD) $4.98 OJC 1867 Relativity by Walt Dickerson (CD) $4.98 FAN 7020 WorkTime by Sonny Rollins (CD) $5.98

I just returned from a lunch time drive to my local independent retailer to do some browsing. When I walked in the store the proprietor happily said to me that I arrived in time as he had just received a bunch of Fantasy cutouts. Not surprisingly he had many of the items I ordered from oldies.com and I am still waiting to see if they will arrive. He was selling them for $7.99 and $8.99 (for K2s). I wondered whether I should tell him about the oldies.com sale and decided to let him know. He understandably was not happy to hear about the sale for lower prices and wondered whether they were coming from the same distributor as his. Since I always try to support him when I can, I picked up the following two items that I did not purchase in the oldies.com sale. Flanagan/Coltrane/Burrell - The Cats (K2) - $8.99 Cannonball Adderley w/ Bill Evans - Know What I Mean? (K2) - $8.99 I also picked up a used copy of Dejan Terzic Quartet (w/ George Garzone) - Four For One for $2.99.

Although I have not received a shipment notification and my order status on the website has not changed, yesterday my credit charge was charged an amount less than the total amount of my order. So I suspect some of the items are not avaibale and hopefully the shipment is on the way. I also just placed another big order. As we are all reasoning - at these prices it is worth it to try to fill some holes.

I have a similar status. I had also placed a bunch of items in my to be placed later section. Initially it stated shipping was 1- 3 days - now for all of them it says 1 -2 weeks.

Just placed my first order in the Oldies.com sale for the following: OJC 1737 The Chicago Sound by Wilbur Ware Quintet (CD) $4.98 OJC 18622 Curtis Fuller With Red Garland by Curtis Fuller / Red Garland (CD) $4.98 OJC 17552 Evidence by Steve Lacy (CD) $4.98 OJC 625 The Fabulous Thad Jones by Thad Jones (CD) $4.98 PRS 241202 In A Minor Groove by Dorothy Ashby (CD) $5.98 OJC 1913 The Jaki Byard Experience by Jaki Byard (CD) $4.98 PRS 110162 Moanin' Blues by Bobby Timmons Trio (CD) $4.98 OJC 1876 Mr. Soul by John Wright Trio (Jazz) (CD) $5.98 OJC 431 New Ideas by Don Ellis (CD) $4.98 OJC 1924 New Jazz Frontiers From Washington by The JFK Quintet (CD) $4.98 OJC 1867 Relativity by Walt Dickerson (CD) $4.98 FAN 235 Thelonious Himself by Thelonious Monk (CD) $6.98 CON 3505 Vol. 1: The Trio by Hampton Hawes (CD) $5.98 FAN 7020 WorkTime by Sonny Rollins (CD) $5.98 Total: $75.72
