The Best of Little Walter (Chess/P-Vine)

John Lee Hooker: Original Folk Blues (Ace)

Don't have that set, but his Blue Star recordings on electric are exactly what you say.

Buddy Tate: Jumping on the West Coast An old favorite from the days when I had the LP. Especially enjoyed hearing "The Things You Done for Me Baby" again today.

Thanks for posting that, Pete. Great thoughts and reminiscences.

Cecil Taylor Booker T & the MGs MG

I like it also. Very good Don Joseph, and even though I wish that Chuck Wayne had played some slightly more extended solos, I like his playing too.

Guitar Gable with King Karl: Cool Calm Collected (Flyright)

Steppin' with the World Saxophone Quartet

B.B. King: Rock Me Baby

Percy!!!

Charlie Feathers: All Tore Up! (Zu-Zazz)

It's strange to revisit this thread that I began almost 14 years ago and had forgotten about. In the meantime (probably 8 or 9 years ago). I got rid of my baseball books, with the exception of a handful, when I grew disgusted with the juicing and other things that had happened. I don't think that I still have any of the books that I mentioned in this thread.

Not sure, but he may have been the father of the now active drummer, Ali Jackson. https://www.allmusic.com/artist/ali-muhammed-jackson-mn0000003424/biography https://www.revolvy.com/main/index.php?s=Ali%20Jackson%20(jazz%20drummer

Thanks for posting that photo! Joe Torre had mellowed by the time he was managing the Yankees, but after I read that passage to my wife, she always referred to him humorously as "the brooding Bedouin".

Sonny Rollins Trio: St Thomas

Cool Playing Blues (Relic)

I recall seeing that group on a late night program on WNET in NY, probably in 1965. I wonder if a tape of that is still in existence. If I were a betting man, I'd bet that it's not.

Jimmy Lyons - Andrew Cyrille: Burnt Offering (Black Saint)

Buddy Tate: Groovin' with Tate

Paul Desmond (Artists House) Whenever I listen to this, I make sure I read Nat Hentoff's heartfelt remembrance of Paul Desmond in the booklet.

Eddie Condon: The Liederkranz Sessions

Some of these responses say more about the responders than they do about the issue(s).

I wonder what that panel discussion was like. I'd have enjoyed hearing Cecil and Martin Williams - might have been somewhat more of a confrontation than a discussion. But perhaps not.

Negro Prison Blues and Songs (Legacy International)
