Another thumbs up for more Marsh, any more Revelaton material would be greatly welcomed.

very interesting read, thanks

slight change of style, I like this one, Mats is not completely over the top and the music has a reflective quality. Live recording from 2009 in Vilnius Barry Guy Mats & Gustafsson Sinners ,rather than saints NoBusiness

Earl Hines Grand Terrace Band Victor LPV 512, ace Budd Johnson tenor sax solo on XYZ as hard a swinging a tune as anything form Basie with Johnson sounding like a slightly more muscular Prez. Great transfers.

is this what you were referring to ? Cafe Oto

Thanks Jeff for your insights, I've taken great pleasure re- reading the whole thread and digging out what Oliver I have. No Vocalions/Brunswick material but i'm judging that it's less than essential.

Following Jeff's very interesting post re Oliver Victors. Always liked "Struggle Buggy" largely because it was on one of the first jazz records I ever heard.

This is very hard but Louis Billie Anita O'day

I like this Select a lot which surprised me. It's richly varied covering really quite a wide stylistic base. Gets frequent play.

I'm amazed that no Big John Patton's made their list

I purchased Extension on vinyl quite recently. its' not been with me long but I keep returning to it. Lots of details in the arrangements which are nuanced and still swing. Is this reissue a straight one or are there bonus tracks etc.?

The sound quality of the original LP does nothing to draw the listener in. I suspect that the intelligence of the interplay will be all the more obvious if the sound improves as promised. JLH's track record has pretty impressive to date IMO.

The price of 20 dollars per cd strikes me as more reasonable. Keep the quality up but price to sell,

I've no problem with 60 dollars. My only concern would be availability in UK,, With the last two reissues JLH I have ordered from Amazon because UK amazon did not initially list them. So I'd like to properly sorted distribution to Europe. This may be asking the impossible but I'll buy it anyway as the Daley wad one of my suggestions.

Nice interview with Alexander Hawkins inMarch issue. All there ,ever out gets 4 stars, well done

Mosquito dance comes from Choice

Yes indeed. It's the only album I have by him outside of his playing with Cal Tjader. A solid keyboard player and excellent arranger. I was unaware of this album until hearing about it here. Found a good copy on eBay, just got it today.Very nice indeed, one of those rare MOR records that you can easily ignore while it's playing, but full of delightful "WTF?" moments if you start listening. I laways get a kick out of stuff like that, it's like, well, you didn't have to do that, ya' know, not for this gig, but you did anyway, and you got by with it, so...god bless you for that. Also wondering how album-producer Albert Marx got it to Columbia. Did he have any other product released on the label during that time? Anyway, once again, the membership of the O-Board once again repeatedly points out the most reclusive gems there are to be out-pointed. Thanks! Followed the advice and picked a copy of this LP, very nice and well above expectations. I probably still prefer Extension but this is well worth hearing.

great reading this thread again , I do get the feeling that there aren't any "bad" Lacy records out there, listening again to Clangs

I think that was the Giuffre album that I had in the late 70s - a double if I recall - that completely mystified me. I sold it at some point in the 80s. Would be intriguing to hear again given how much other music I've since listened to. Might make sense now. Dragonfly is a single LP . Mosquito Dance is a double from 1975

I'm not sure I'd look through several hundred of PDF pages no matter how interested I was in the subject. I suppose if a PDF was cheap enough I might try but I'd rather spend proper money on hard copy.

Party , what party ? Here's your invite Rod

party for misfits and cowboys with Dave Pell

Jimmy Giuffre Dragonfly Soul Note, I remember thinking that this was complete rubbish when I first played it about 20 yrs ago. I'm not sure I've played it it since but I'm really impressed spinning it now . Not sure how this stacks up compared to the other JG Soul Notes . I like the synth, the whole package. Nice one Jimmy, even if I didn't realise it the time.

that's where I'm at too.

are we any the wiser for who is on this or track listing ?
