Tom 1960

What took me so long to get into Lateef's music escapes me. I already owned a few of his Savoy titles and enjoyed them. I've been listening to a good number of releases the past few days and listening to this now. Very nice live date with the added bonus of hearing the under recorded Richard Williams on trumpet.

Please post your impressions!

I picked up a few Christmas recordings this year and this one is easily the best.

A definite change of pace when it comes to Christmas music.

Wow, this is really good! Great sound and performances. If you're a fan, this is a must addition.

I realize this isn't the proper venue to express my frustrations and I indeed can appreciate Tommy is a one many operation. That said waiting up to 6 months or maybe longer in case of orders, is a bit ridiculous. Prices are very attractive but doesn't work well for me. I hope you guys get your orders in a swift manner. I'll refrain from any further comment on this subject. Any questions can be referred to me via PM.

Curious, seeing so much love for this set years back would $110 be a good price now for this set? I've also done some research on the Satchmo The Musical Autobiography and it's priced on Amazon for $140. Ebay not any better. That's clearly out of the question unless they're other options. Thought this set might make a nice Christmas present to myself. Thoughts please. I'm presently listening to the Musical Autobiography on Spotify and love the Armstrong vocal intro's but the current price is again out of the question.

FWIW, today's edition of Jazz Profiles focuses on the career of Roy Hargrove. 2 to 7 PM eastern time. https://www.cc-seas.columbia.edu/wkcr/

Saw this too.

Awesome! Thanks Soulpope.
