  1. Very sad news - RIP. Never got to see him but hugely enjoyed his work with Shepp and Carla Bley. His booklet notes for the Herbie Nichols Mosaic were superb too.
  2. I agree, some of Miles’ greatest ever playing on that one - and Mobley is no slouch either. Max Roach and his demo must have really rattled Miles, in a good way.
  3. 47W63rd DG stereo pressing
  4. NY USA mono. Stunning !
  5. I’ll stick with the Contemporary vinyl !
  6. Just been listening to disk 5 of that set. The final track, ‘Minnie’, is very much in a pop vein and indicates quite a bit of continuity to the music of the comeback years.
  7. My copy arrived - sealed and very well packaged by JazzMessengers like a Mosaic shipment of yore. As a chaser I also have a copy of the Mel Lewis bio, which has got good writeups. It’s a Thad &Mel Xmas !
  8. Made me laugh !
  9. That is the incentive I need to dig this set out !
  10. The only Airport Express I know is a car park..
  11. Humph Tubbs Acker
  12. Fantastic ! I’m in.. Especially good as I never bothered with those downloads. Good news about that Armstrong Columbia 50s set in the works too.
  13. 47w63rd mono pressing
  14. Arthur Daley Arthur Arthur Negus
  15. NY USA mono. Sounds fantastic !
  16. McCoy Tyner ‘The Greeting’ (Milestone)
  17. He’s coming up at the Bristol Jazz and Blues Festival here in the UK early next year. I’m tempted to go. Last time I saw him was with Kenny Wheeler.
  18. So sorry to hear this. RIP.
