A great favorite , tho' I have it on Columbia CDs. Yep, I had the double LP, CBS italian pressing, since I was fifteen, I sold it when I got the Mosaic. Got a 6-eye double but it has been superceded by Mosaic. The 'edits' on the original suck. First up today - Cedar Walton 'Spectrum' (Prestige blue label, stereo)

Nice to see the Gil Melle exhibit ! Looks like those so-called "Warhols" are a speculative bubble ready to burst.

I'm using a 42" Panasonic Viera plasma and have been very happy with it.

Never heard anything but an excellent gig from him - and I've seen a few over the years (I think the first Cedar gig I saw must have been 19789/80, with the 'Eastern Rebellion' group with Bob Berg). A nice, down-to-earth and approachable guy too ! That was the first time I saw him live, too - Sam Jones on bass! Great band! He signed the band's LP for me that evening. Do a search on My Jazz World Thanks ! Sadly, Sam Jones had passed away not long before I saw 'Eastern Rebellion' for the first time and it was the excellent David Williams on bass.

A nice, down-to-earth and approachable guy too ! Sorry Mike - have never heard the 'Mobius' other than a bit of it on the radio. Would like to check it out again.

Sonny Simmons 'Rumasuma' (Contemporary white label, stereo)

Probably a reasonable chance that they will be back. This is at least the second batch of cheap 'Last Waltz's'.

Yep, used to tune in to that quite a bit. Fabulous hour or so on Saturday mornings (I think that's when it was). Used to like the way he would feature recordings when they had their 30th year anniversaries.

Hank Mobley Sonny Greenwich Eddie Diehl

Joe Sample 'Ashes To Ashes' (Warner)

Reggie Kray Ronnie Kray The Boys From Brazil

At least Hank Jones and McCoy are there but Leonard Cohen and Katie Melua as jazz is pushing 'trades description' a bit !!

I use those Japanese Nagaoka ones when I can get them. Cost an arm and a leg but they are good. Don't know what I did to the phono stage last night but it is really singing. Miles is jumping out the speakers. Iffy DIN connection perhaps?

Larry Young Charles Earland Mrs Mills

OK Ah Theakston's Old Peculier - my favourite ! Jamie Theakston Amy Whitehouse Mary Whitehouse

Looks like my Dolphy and 'Secret Sessions' are confirmed as shipped for $29.99 each. Great stuff !

Big Miller Windy Miller Alex 'Hurricane' Higgins

Parker Lady Penelope Brains

Donald Magill Dizzy Gillespie Willie Ruff

Working my way through the Jimmy Giuffre LP set today.

Quincy Jones 'This Is How I Feel About Jazz' (ABC Paramount, mono) Dug this one out too. I'll have to see if I can find the 'Go West, Man' too. Nice sounding album - in pretty good nick.

Almost as good as the 15 Euros from Zweitausendeins - great price and great box set !

'Bethlehem's Best' (mono 3LP box set - various artists. Chris Connor, Howard McGhee, Conte Candoli, Hal McKusick, Carmen McRae etc)

Too true. No favours from me either.. :rsmile:

Hey, my hearty congrats and Best Wishes to you and Mrs. ASNL77 !
