I don't have it but it got a great review in one of the UK jazz mags.

Excellent set. I thought I had enough Lovano but this one is a little different from the normal run of Lovano recordings. Recommended.

Fine album. I have the Bleu Regard cd.

Mingus Ah Um East Coasting They're the easy ones. Tie for third place - Pithecanthropus Erectus and Tijuana Moods.

Really enjoyed Donald Byrd's Chant lp this week. Several fine tracks but I especially liked "That's All".

HAPPY BIRTHDAY JC!

Happy Birthday FFA!!

Sounds like a good trip. Have a great time, We always do in the US. I should be on my way there in the summer, after visiting my brother in law in the Bay Area we hope to head towards the east of the Sierras an then up to Oregon, a state we've not visited so far.

Gil Evans Orchestra; Little Wing - Live in Germany. Circle

I should have mentioned that, essential.

Hi fent, buy some proper mailers from covers 33 for a start (they come as a minimum of 25, so perhaps you'll sell some more). Mailers look professional and save an awful lot of trouble. Then scrounge some decent heavy weight corrugated card from where ever you can (shops, neighbours etc). You need at least two stiffeners. If the finished package doesn't flex you are probably okay. Finished packages normally weigh around 450-550 grams. That means Royal Mail will be charging around £2.25 inland depending on weight and to add about 60p for packing. USA will be quite a lot more, around £7.00 + packing using RMs small packet service. I've sold hundreds of lps worldwide successfully. Any questions pm me.

Booker Little 4 and Max Roach. United Artists (Japanese King)

Belated birthay greetings jazjet, hope you had a great day.

Donald Byrd; Chant. Blue Note rainbow. Some very fine Byrd and Doug Watkins here.

Presumably EMI still have a stake in Mosaic. In their parlous state EMI will be looking hard at their investment in Mosaic. So this news is no surprise. Even if Mosaic manage to keep their head above water I suspect there will bound to be a reduced level of customer service.

Grant Green; Solid. Blue Note rainbow.

Give it a try. I can hear it, and I'm an oldie!

John Lewis; Improvised Meditations and Excursions. Atlantic

Cannonball and Coltrane. Mercury (UK issue)

Congratulations Stefan, my very best wishes to you both.

Thanks to aloc for reminding me about the Bob Brookmeyer/Curtis Fuller tracks on - Bob Brookmeyer; Jazz Is A Kick. Trip (ex Mercury)

Great record and one I've not played in a while. Thanks for the reminder Aloc, I'll dig it out for play later.

Happy Birthday Big Al!!

Another vote for the presentation of the Nocturne set.

Happy Birthday Garth!!
