Tumbler? Just sip straight from the bottle

Yuengling Light from a can.

Yeah, I'm going to ask if there's additional means of access. No guarantee but I'll still shake the tree.

I'm not having any luck, sorry. I broadened the search to my state's library system and then worldwide, but I only get date ranges from 1911-1950 for the Courier or dates starting in 1955 with the New Pittsburgh Courier. Ugh.

I can try, although my uni's access appears date-restricted for this pub. What year/date is the photo?

I hear it in Jan Garbarek as well as Paul Desmond, and from a substantial portion of RVG's production oeuvre from about the mid-60s onward.

Unfortunately there's a near incoherent review on the Mosaic site that pans this set already. Just saw Ricky Riccardi's plea on FB for customers to leave positive reviews there if they feel it deserves praise to counter what's there now.

Very cool.

Ha, that is awesome, from the playing to the recording itself and the fact that this is a 78 from '52. Bark for Barksdale indeed.

Very cool story I found on FB this morning about a member of the FB Jazz Vinyl Group sending Charles McPherson some of his records. From the way the post reads, I'm guessing Charles didn't have these in his own collection so the member gifted him these.

This is great

Mainly via online discovery as by the time I got into jazz, Mosaic was well past it's groundbreaking heyday. But that was for other Mosaics such as the Selects they were carrying (RivBea Orchestra) and the remaining singles like the George Wein in Mexico, Bud Freeman Chicago High School, & The Jazz Piano which made up my first orders from them about 6 years ago. The first box sets I ordered from the were some of the last vinyl sets they had like the Kirk, Coltrane and Mulligan sets. I got into Tina Brooks much later and mainly through the Audio Wave XRCDs; learning later about Mosaic's efforts to get the Brooks albums back in print domestically. That probably paved the way for the recent Brooks reissues, and well deserved IMO. The trio of albums from him that include Back to the Tracks, True Blue & The Waiting Game are remarkable. I actually don't have any version of Minor Move, and will remedy that eventually even though it's regarded as his least essential output.

Unfortunately the P-Vine CD sets of Disco 3000 & Media Dreams had Japanese liners, but that's the one and only drawback to these. Packaging and SQ are excellent, and those more than make up for any perceived faults. Listening to Disco 3000 now and it's got brilliant playing by all involved, and at least for me this is essential stuff.

Via CD that isn't listed on discogs.

A Blue Note listening session Thursday:

Yeah, wondering the same. That alternate 2LP cover is sweet

I saw that.

They're really calling that Evans album "Behind the Dikes"? Okay then... Also, looks like Resonance is re-issuing the Lloyd Manhattan Stories on Vinyl, and the live set from Roland Kirk looks interesting.

Spent some time with this release from Roaratorio last night. 2 LP set (33rpm) of some sessions from '69 in Philly. Got through the first LP and really enjoyed it. Not essential, or really a place to start with Sun Ra, but there are some gems like Latent Friends & Moon Over Saturn. Another example of how no one else composed or arranged like this ,especially for those times. Now, unfortunately my download card didn't work and the LP isn't free from a few crackles, but that didn't bother me or detract from the songs at all. Super weird how this post is getting formatted. Can't fix it either. Oh well...

Manne was a great drummer, but he must have been working all the time. Maybe he didn't tour much, at least outside of California? That may explain why he got so many sessions in his relatively shorter lifetime... There's a lot to enjoy in his discography, at least for me. I think he paired really well with Bill Evans, and his live at the Black Hawk sessions are essential. I even like his 70s excursions into fusion like Mannekind.

Hawkins' efforts on this one make the whole album for me. Some of these tunes could have easily veered off into hokey-ness but for his playing. Very nice showcase for him.

Via Columbia Legacy CD with the three bonus alt takes of Ugly Beauty, Boo Boo's Birthday and Thelonious. A fine session from Larry Gales, that's for sure.

How's this? I'm sure it's great but I withheld from buying it and am pretty sure I'll regret that...
