The UK RCA pressings of the Prestige 2LPs sound distinctly better than the French !

A very rare excursion for Teddy Edwards to NYC. Recorded in Webster Hall, I think.

Sad news - very much enjoyed his 'Rhythm Combination & Brass' recordings for MPS and really should get that box set. RIP Mr Herbolzheimer.

I need just the trumpet case, no boxes. Wonder if they will be selling that?

More sad news - RIP. 'Herb Ellis Meets Jimmy Giuffre' will be played later tonight.

Awesome - you were at disks 1 to 3 of the Plugged Nickel Box Set? There's quite a bit of audience noise in that box - I'll listen out for your mum cursing..

Meanwhile, this British EP on 'Airborne' by Shake Keane (a ridiculously rare one, in great nick by the look of it) is hitting the stratosphere.. £500 + anyone? Shake Keane EP

Mr T Stanley T Poppa Lou

Was he playing the Crumar Mainman standing back-to-front yet?

What a great DVD this is - Budd Johnson's solo on the opening number is a revelation. And great to get to see Melba Liston and Julius Watkins soloing. A gem ! The Belgians even invested in some stage props and visual introductory credits too (although they should have checked with Quincy on the names).

I think it was the Halle Orchestra - also in Bradford! (St George's Hall) First jazz - probably Dutch Swing College Band. Followed by Woody Herman Thundering Herd.

Paul Weller Don Weller Teflon Don

Keith Jarrett! or Nina?

....buhbuhbut it is 'rare' and 'audiophile'

A masterpiece, IMO

Lee Morgan 'Charisma' (BN Liberty, stereo). This one gets unfairly slagged off IMO - a good 60s Morgan session.

Great one - always thought that LP first came out as a green label in the 70s. Big John Patton 'Accent On The Blues' (BN Rare Groove, stereo)
