You are probably good where you are. I like to listen to all of this set. . . I generally play a different disc each time I pull it down and have not gotten tired of any of them. I'm more inclusive and expansive as far as collecting goes than you, and I've been retired for almost fourteen years now and have had lots of time to play discs. I think for your collection you're fine with the 2 cd set. NP: Cannonball Adderley and Nat Adderley "The David Axelrod Years" Stateside 2 cd set, disc 1 Nice compilation! Track#1.1 & 2.9 are from the 1970 LP "Experience In E". Track#1.2, 1.6, 2.2 & 2.5 are from the 1972 LP "Soul Of The Bible". Track#1.3 was released as a Capitol 45. Track#1.4, 1.7 & 2.6 are from the 1968 LP "Accent On Africa". Track#1.5, 2.1 & 2.7 are from the 1972 LP "Soul Zodiac". Track#1.8 is from the 1970 LP "The Price You Got To Pay To Be Free". Track#1.9 & 2.4 are from the 1967 LP "74 Miles Away/Walk Tall". Track#1.10 is from the 1972 LP "Music You All". Track#2.3 is from the 1967 LP "Why Am I Treated So Bad!". Track#2.8 is from the 1971 LP "The Black Messiah"

Yes, I traded this away and have the box set. . . . I agree that he sounds wonderful here, and so does Kenny. Performances that always unfold and reveal a new bit of truth and beauty.

Tania Maria "Come with Me" Concord SACD I haven't heard this one in some time. I tend to play later Tania Maria but I'm really enjoying re-visiting this one. I love this woman. She has so much talent and personality and energy and she communicates it all so well. I have to thank one little video appearance with her nephew Ed Motta for inspiring me to seek her work out and for many many hours of audio enjoyment.

More LPs to finish up my listening day: Jimmy Knepper "Idol of the Flies" Bethlehem reissue LP '82 reissue of Followed by, another trombonist, another of my favorites, Jack Teagarden "Live at the Roundtable" Roulette mono LP Finally, one of my favorite Santana LPs, "Borboletta" Columbia Stereo LP

A domestic Mingus centennial release, coming April 23 (will be Mingus' 100th, and my Dad's 90th) for RSD.

Amazing sound. If they were to reissue using the Plangent Process every LP these singles were from I'd buy them yet again. Aretha Franklin "The Atlantic Singles Collection 1967 to 1970"

Amanaz "Africa" (cd 1).

Return to Forever, featuring Chick Corea, "Hymn of the Seventh Galaxy" Universal Japan SHM-CD Oh boy. This is bringing back many memories. Where has Frank Bivins been since our Pierce Tower days?

I love this album and have promoted it among jazz fans a bit. F'in' good.

Luisa Maita "Remixed" I like the material being re-mixed and futzed with here, so I wanted to check this out.

Hmmm. . . good point about Mose days. Right now Milt Jackson, Wes Montgomery "Bags Meets Wes" DCC gold cd. I mean there's also Wynton Kelly, Sam Jones and Philly Joe Jones. It can't miss and it knocks it to the edge of the park.

Those 2 were released on cd in Japan twice since this post was first posted.

Energy! Earl Hines "At the Party" Denmark cd Bass – Larry Richardson Drums – Kahil Mahdee Guitar – Jack Crowley Piano – Earl Hines Vibraphone – Johnny Rae Recorded May 13, 1970 live in San Francisco

Myriam Alter "Where is There" I love this record. I bought it because Jacques Morelenbaum is on board--I'll buy anything he is involved with--but it led to my buying more Alter cds.

Horace Silver "The Hardtop Grandpop" Impulse cd Perhaps not the best Silver, perhaps not the worst. Quite a band!

"Marina De La Riva" A Cuban-Brazilan singer and actress. Interesting album.

Tom & Joyce "Partir" Very nice acoustic samba music.

Lia Sophia "Castelo de Luz" Brazilian pop.

Erroll Garner "Easy to Love" followed by Herminia "Do Sal" This is fascinating music, well-recorded. Reminds me of Me-hi-co music, she is from Cape Verde, recorded in Paris.

A video I have not seen before of the largest organ that my great great great great great grandfather built for the Moravian church in Salem, NC.

Milt Jackson "Burnin' in the Woodshed" Warner Bros cd Alto Saxophone – Jesse Davis Bass – Christian McBride Drums – Kenny Washington Piano – Benny Green Tenor Saxophone – Joshua Redman Vibraphone – Milt Jackson

"The Complete Roulette Jack Teagarden Sessions" disc IV I have several versions of this material, stereo and mono LPs and Japanese SHM-CDs, and it all sounds so good. Jack's playing and singing are a good fit for my today.

I needed more Duke in my day. Duke Ellington Orchestra "Latin American Suite" OJC cd There's just such sloppy elegance in their playing.

A rather different sort of jazz singing than Jimmy's. Lucy Reed, Basic Reeding (feat. Larry Novak, Herb Ellis & Ray Brown) "Basic Reeding" Audiophile Records (Jazzology) cd

Jimmy Rushing "Five Feet of Soul!" What a band! Alto Saxophone – Gene Quill, Phil Woods Arranged By, Conductor – Al Cohn Baritone Saxophone – Sol Schlinger Bass – Milt Hinton Drums – Gus Johnson Engineer – Ray Hall Guitar – Freddie Green Piano – Patti Bown Tenor Saxophone – Budd Johnson, Zoot Sims Trombone – Billy Byers, Jimmy Cleveland, Urbie Green, Willie Dennis Trumpet – Ernie Glow*, Joe Newman, Markie Markowitz*, Snooky Young Vocals – Jimmy Rushing Recorded at Webster Hall in New York on January 22 and 23, 1963.
