kh1958

PM sent on the Illinois Jacquet.

There's a very art nice museum (believe it or not) in Albany, Texas, about a half hour from Abilene. http://www.theoldjailartcenter.org/

Marvin Stamm/Bill Mays duo--UTD, January 28, 2011

Don't come in August.

Bobby Timmons--Born to be Blue (Riverside Holland pressing) Wes Montgomery Trio (Riverside, Japanese pressing)

I need pretty much all of them. One that I didn't see mentioned is his excellent final pre-stroke recording, Other Folk's Music (Atlantic). Simone popped up on my ipod yesterday (with Richard Williams and Roy Haynes), and it is a great recording. Trudy Pitts also appears on the record.

blowitoutofhere is my favorite amazon seller. Great prices, superfast shipping and secure packaging.

My Jamal box arrived in fine shape, but the shipping was slower than I recall--it took about a week from the day I received a shipment email, and no tracking information was ever provided.

Happy birthday!

So I read your post, the record sounds interesting, and I stopped at HPB on the way home and they had a copy for $4--I wasn't expecting it to be so easy.

George Coleman was at the Village Vanguard my first visit there (in 1984 or so)--they were recording, and the recording was released as Manhattan Panorama, I believe.

Apex now shows up on the Pi website, showing a release date of September 2010. Apex Rudresh Mahanthappa & Bunky Green Jack DeJohnette Bunky Green Rudresh Mahanthappa Jason Moran Francois Moutin Damion Reid

Ben Webster--Sophisticated Lady (Verve) Jazz West Coast Volume 5 (World Pacific)

Nick Moss and the Flip Tops at Pearl on Commerce. Very good guitarist and band, he saved the best song for the end of the second set; modest sized audience of 30 or so. Looking forward to seeing Michael Burks again here, and to seeing Janiva Magness, both at Pearl in about a month.

Thread on Henry Threadgill.

Charlie Parker and Dizzy Gillespie--Bird and Diz (Verve) Dizzy Gillespie Live with the Mitchell-Ruff Duo (Book of the Month Club)

I recall seeing McCoy Tyner on the show also, back in that approximate timeframe.

He is the tenor player with Tom Harrell, and is on Harrell's last several fine releases on High Note.

His releases on Concord are also worthy.

Baby Lips--Live at Minton's in 1941, recorded thanks to Jerry Newman--Electrifying and jaw dropping trumpet from Hot Lips Page.

Sweets, Lips and Lots of Jazz (Xanadu)--Jerry Newman recordings. Both Sides of Tony Scott (RCA black dog).

Sam Price and His Kay Cee Stompers--Barrellhouse Boogie Woogie and the Blues (Concert Hall 10 inch)--Nice session with Pete Brown, Vic Dickenson, Milt Hinton and Cozy Cole. Jaki Byard--Freedom Together (Prestige, blue label)

I found a used copy of this one yesterday--you are right, it is good. How's the other Harry Whitaker on Smalls?

Yes, I just ordered one from Newbury for $1.99, as I only had For Basie.

I'm not at home to check, but isn't the Roy Eldridge a 2 CD set?
