  1. Checking out that Moody now. The CD reissues are high $$$ but the LPs look affordable. And of course it streams...
  2. Thanks for the leads! When I checked Gladden out, I saw some of those live Dexter dates that are on my wish list already. Going to have to bump those up higher.
  3. Damn that's a talented stable of artists. Oh man, for some reason I thought you'd get it.
  4. Forgive me, more Blue Note this morning: Larry Young with Byard Lancaster, George Benson a some folks I'm not so familiar with: Ed Gladden, Herbert Morgan and vocal track from Althea Young. I really enjoyed this album. Young's playing here takes an esoteric turn at times and he plays some really engaging melodies. The Discogs listing shows a total of 6 legit pressings. If that's the case, then this, to me, is an underappreciated classic. Interesting line up with Silver who's playing with Woody Shaw, James Spaulding, Tyrone Washington, Larry Ridley and Roger Humphries. Another excellent record. Every time I hear Horace solo on this, I think about how he didn't record enough trio dates. Hell, maybe he should've been the one to do the Peanuts albums (no offense to VG as I'm a fan). Master tapes of this one are long gone, so its post-Liberty LP pressing are all CDs. But there's an 8-track out there... And now: Such a grooving record this is, and in interesting history regarding some issues having a couple of stereo alts. My UCCQ CD is in mono and lacks those alts that the Conn issue included. No big deal, but one day I'll probably snag that other copy.
  5. Coffee table book you say?
  6. Oh yeah, thanks! Always enjoy a good dub mix
  7. I'll be checking them out for sure.
  8. Jeter is a new name for me. It's not him...nor is it Eddie. That and Steaming Jungle are the ones I don't have. Too Expensive is noteworthy as it's his only major label album. But majors and Keith Hudson just don't go together.
  9. I'd always assumed that Hudson's estate prevented the use of the original title and perhaps the original cover art too. It's an awesome album that unfolded very slowly for me. Edit to add: Love that I Shall Be Released is on this album. One could do an entire BFT of Jamaican versions of that song. It's like a reggae standard pretty much. Geography is important, but neither of those and dare I say no Boston connection. And this drummer appears elsewhere in this very same BFT, albeit in a track that's only been partially ID'd.
  10. You got it. I have a needle drop of "a" pressing of this album.
  11. All right, well - midway through June so here's an update on the two completely unidentified tracks so far: Track 3 - Not particularly enjoyed by many here. Unique singer who self produced much of his output via his income as a dentist. Track 9 - This one seems to be one of the more popular tracks among this selection. Incorrect guesses so far on who the pianist is include: Ahmad Jamal, Ramsey Lewis, Errol Garner, Billy Strayhorn, Hampton Hawes, Chick Corea, & Eldar Djangirov. Drummer guessed as Roy Haynes and that is incorrect as well. The drummer has a connection to Haynes however.
  12. Needed to break up the BN marathon and this is very different. Early 70s ECM with some real work by Andersen.
  13. 'Twas a Grant Green listening kind of weekend:
  14. Bookmarked. Great site!
  15. helluva time machine you have there
  16. I'll PM you later when I can get to a proper keyboard.
  17. Yep. What level? Asking that because experience with lumbar vs cervical spine are usually different. Mine was cervical spine and it was a great success.
  18. Craft is doing a "Small Batch" LP line which they've done Lush Life and Eastern Sounds so far. In line with that MFSL One Step stuff. Totally sleeping on Savoy, aside from that Bird set, which is a shame.
  19. Pear: bosc or Asian Apple: Fuji Preference: pear
  20. That's what I suspect after looking around that website. T shirts, mugs and slipmats too.
