  1. Within the last week, Hampton Hawes For Real (Contemporary stereo deep groove), Yusef Lateef, Eastern Sounds (Prestige stereo, black and silver NJ label), and Jimmy Smith Plays Pretty For You (Blue Note mono, W.63rd/NY USA hybrid). Not in the greatest condition, but LPs like this are not common in these parts.

    Oliver Lake

    This one is good: Oliver Lake Organ Trio, Makin' It http://www.amazon.com/Makin-Oliver-Lake-Organ-Trio/dp/B001CDL8IC/ref=sr_1_1?s=music&ie=UTF8&qid=1340583996&sr=1-1&keywords=Oliver+Lake+Organ+Trio
  3. This set can be bought for around $25 at present on amazon.com. Native Dancer is of course fantastic. Atlantis, mostly is not for me. I only liked The Three Marias. Phantom Navigator, I did not care for this album. Joy Ryder, to my surprise, I mostly rather like; Wayne sounds great, and I even like the electric keyboards on this one (by Patrice Russian, Geri Allen, and Herbie Hancock).
  4. Montego Joe, Wild and Warm (Prestige, blue label)
  5. That's pretty funny. It should be "Mose Allison Plays and Sings Cynical Songs for Lovers Who Are About to Break Up." Includes, I Told Ya I Loved Ya, Now Get Out.
  6. Yesterday, John Coltrane, Blue Trane (NY USA stereo), upgrading my Liberty copy. Cannonball Adderley, Know What I Mean? (Riverside blue label mono), upgrading my battered stereo copy. And finally, Mose Allison Plays for Lovers (Prestige, blue label mono). I couldn't resist this bizarre concept anthology. All in very nice shape.
  7. I saw that group at Smalls a year or so ago and I very much enjoyed; their two recent worthy recordings on Steeplechase are Forsooth and Heavy Mirth.
  8. Willis Jackson, Boss Shoutin' (Prestige, blue label, mono)
  9. Wayne Shorter"s Complete Columbia Album collection has a pre-order (June 12 release) price of $25.99 on amazon.com.
  10. And of course jokes about Aggies are native to Texas, being a reference to graduates of Texas A&M University.
  11. The best place to start is with the Evidence reissues. I like selected material from all eras of Sun Ra.
  12. I saw them a couple of years ago at the Blue Note, on a double bill with Jason Moran. I enjoyed them moderately; they were fine, but not anything great; some songs were more to my liking than others. I would see them again in the right circumstances. But I enjoyed Jason Moran and Bandwagon a lot more.
  13. Joe Sullivan, New Solos By an Old Master (Riverside, blue label)
  14. Double thanks--a great deal, $18 for the Waldron Black Saint box and $20 for the Lacy Black Saint box.
  15. Jimmy Smith, Back at the Chicken Shack (Blue Note, mono, NY USA) Horace Silver, Cape Verdean Blues (Blue Note, mono, NY USA)
  16. Rip Rig and Panic = Jaki Byard Experience minus Alan Dawson plus Elvin Jones.
  17. Rip, Rig and Panic, and I Talk With Sprits are on Limelight, and those are two of his best albums.
  18. Their domestic shipping is also high ($4.95 for one CD); so I'll wait and use amazon.com.
  19. Stan Getz and J.J. Johnson at the Opera House (Verve)
  20. Dance with Kid Ory or Just Listen (Verve)
  21. Cannonball Adderley Live at the Lighthouse (Riverside, Fontana pressing)
  22. I ordered the Uptown Hank Mobley and the new Tom Harrell, Number Five.
  23. The Elmore James box set is great. http://www.acerecords.co.uk/content.php?page_id=59&release=7530
  24. Three of my earliest jazz LP purchases (around 1973-74) that hooked me were anthologies: The Best of John Coltrane (Atlantic) Miles Davis, Basic Miles (Columbia), and The Best of Cannonball Adderley (Capitol).
  25. Cannonball Adderley, Know What I Mean? (Riverside, black label) Larry Coryell, Fairyland (Mega)
