The Raymond Boni is a favorite.

You sure you're not thinking of the Dave Bailey LPs on Epic?

There's also an interesting-looking one on Gerard Terrones' Marge label. Philly Joe Jones - Filet De Sole (Marge (F) 18) Roger Guerin (tp -1/4,6) Glenn Ferris (tb -1/4,6) Hirshel McGinnis (as -1/4,6) Charles Davis (ts) Hal Singer (ts -1/4,6) Gene Adler (p) Wilbur Little (b) Philly Joe Jones (d) Paris, France, June 19, 1981 1. Trailways Express 2. Dedicated To Tadd 3. Our Delight 4. Two Bass Hit 5. Hi-Fly 6. Killer Joe ** also issued on EPM Musique (F) 151972.

Mal Waldron - Blues for Lady Day - (Black Lion UK)

Bump with a few stragglers...

Yeah, Trailways Express. That's a fine, fine LP. Kenny Wheeler, Ron Matthewson, Harold McNair, Mike Pyne...

Damn.

Phil & Quill - With Prestige - (OJC reissue)

Tal Farlow - The Return of.../1969 - (Prestige)

OUCH!!! What a pisser! Get well soon, Joe. Yuck. Indeed, hope is here for a speedy recovery.

Happy Belated Birthday Conn!

Happy belated!

Happy Birthday, and glad to have you here.

Wish I could have seen that. However, not a bad day yesterday in Austin: Death, the Jesus Lizard, Melt-Banana, the Sword, Times New Viking, Shonen Knife... my one day at Fun Fun Fun Fest was pretty nice.

Happy birthday porcy - enjoy some original pressings and fine libations!

I haven't bought anything from him in a while. Guess it's time to do so.

Damn, nice one!

Hey Al, Can I do one in 2010?

You guys are only turning 40?

I've tried emailing Gebers as well - never heard back, though I do get new FMP releases for review. I understand that he is producing those as well, though. Cadence sells Jazzwerkstatt titles in the US.

Well, it's being viewed as a limited-edition art multiple that, while it contains music as part of the experience, is also a "work of art." Some of Oxley's artwork is represented on the cover, which I believe is going to be hand-assembled. Other than that, I don't think working with Cecil or Oxley comes cheap these days...

I'll do it tomorrow.

Damn Allen. Rest up.

Well... the artists held the rights to the earlier FMP recordings, as I understand it, so Brotzmann & Schlippenbach probably just told Corbett to go ahead. A lot of more recent reissues were leased/sold to Jazzwerkstatt Germany, so the catalog is kind of flung about. Now that Jost is back in control (or whatever) of the label, it'll be interesting to see what happens.

Yup. Welcome, by the way. Stick around - we're not all snarky!
