Mine's only worth $4225. I'm basically a pretty healthy guy...is it because I'm tall?

Did not know that he was using a plunger!

Interesting stories. Thanks for sharing.

A Charlie Brown Christmas. Not to many albums get me in the mood for the holidays like this one.

Thanks guys Now I got some listenin' to do.

Well, albedammed, it is potato!

Long of the short of it: nevermind :rsmile:

Well Jesus, if I would've just seen that cover alone, I would've never started this thread!

Shit did I spell "potatoe" wrong? Again? crap! ...never did make it into a spelling bee...

Okay, you are probably thinking who cares? But I can only account for one date where he played muted and that's Dialogue. Does he play muted anywhere else, or am I having a brain fart? ( I know, I don't want this to turn into a "where's Lee Morgan playing muted' sort of thread, but dammit I need to know)

Tonight: prime rib, w/ a baked potatoe and salad. OH YEAH

term papers

Albert was the captain of his HS golf team. I would give anything to golf with him! (Maybe I could've placed a wager: if I lose he "forces" me to attend one of his shows at the Village Vanguard. Now that seems reasonable enough )

Has anyone heard how much it costs?

Yeah, that CC series was BOSS, back in the early nineties. Almost shit a brick to see Moncur's "Evolution" sitting in the Borders bin for $9.99. But concerning a new CC series, here are my nominations: Andrew Hill-But not Farewell-I already have it, but its so good, that I want to share the wealth Jackie Mac-Fire and Love-excellent date Jackie Mac-Hat Trick Jackie Mac-One Step Beyond- because it doesn't look like its on the RVG horizon (BTW, the TOCJ blows the McM out of the water) The Don Pullen dates, which I can't think of at the moment. The George Adams dates, which I can't think of either. The Jack Walrath date-Members of Suspence or something like that? Grachan Moncur III-Evolution-again! Grachan Moncur III-Some Other Stuff-second time 'round-its such an excellent date with Hancock/Shorter/McBee/Williams J.R Monterose-BN 1530 I'm sure there's many more that could be included. Hello, Michael Cuscuna?

Yes, Hill's Eternal Spirit was a CC. I've seen it with that white circle sticker that said "limited edition". Can't speak for the other two.

I heard he can "circular putt". Now we all know that a soprano sax cannot substitute for a putter. I mean come on!

I think it was in the Collector's Choice series as mine has the white inlay tray, which looks like that first issue of Conns from 1994. ed: I meant tray, not card.

thanks!

To be honest, I had no clue bells went for that much. I've sold cars for less than that!

Ahhhh, the torch has been passed. Thanks edit: Does that mean that the Bethlehem catalog is no longer in the hands of a US manufacturer/distributer?

My favorite hands down is Color Changes on Candid. Great cast, and great ensemble playing with Jimmy Knepper, Julius Watkins, Yusef Lateef and Ed Shaugnessy. What more could you ask for? Favorite sideman date has to be the recently acquired Tubby Hayes NY Sessions (Tubby the Tenor) on Columbia.

Just got Booker's That's It! over the weekend, and its great! I'm fan of the Turrentine brothers + Parlan, especially on On the Spur of the Moment, my favorite Parlan-led date.

A great session at a steal!! Congrats. Thanks! It hasn't left the cd changer since I bought it!

Up. Just lucked out and found a used copy of Tubby Hayes "NY Sessions" on Columbia tonight at Half Price Books, and I'm blown away by how good this is! This is the second time I've spun it tonight. I guess I'm confused about this set being a "compilation" of two albums, namely, "Tubby the Tenor" and "Introducing Tubbs", as all dates listed are 10/3-10/4 1961, and Tubby the Tenor, appears here complete, whereas Introducing Tubbs' track listing does not match the track listing on the back of the cd. The cd says the remaining tracks are "bonus" tracks. Both albums are Epic titles though, which I did not know, and the original covers are waaaaay cooler than the lamo Columbia Jazz Masterpiece cover. I posted the covers of both original albums below. Besides, NY Sessions, I only own the "Tubbs" Fontana in that goofy thin paper sleeve replica of the original Fontanas and Dizzy Reece's "Blues in Trinity" which was my first exposure to Tubby. He made an impression on me on Reece's date, but NY sessions, aka Tubby the Tenor, is superb!
