  1. I was wondering about the exact same yesterday. Or maybe the day before... Yesterday I was listening to a reissue of this one, which has been coupled with a fantastic trio album also from Pacific Jazz and also from 1962 with Richard Groove Holmes and Lawrence Marable. And now I can't find that mysterious and elusive album. Someone here now what it is?
  2. I'm finally getting my head round that one. Didn't order it online, but had it reserved at my regular store. So I had to wait a bit. But yesterday I got it, together with Bill Evans live at Ronnie Scott's from Resonance, which was also waiting for me. Its awesome, though I'm still listening my way through the 64 broadcast. I'm waiting for the 75 one.
  3. This is an incredible Brazilian album. One of the best from Maysa and one of the cornerstones of Bossa Nova.
  4. I only found this one of the release I have. A Conn.
  5. Yes, it's astoundingly good.
  6. Continuing with my Mobley romp...
  7. Yes, that's one I wanted to recommend too, but it's been mentioned before. But the Pacific Jazz version, issued by Capitol I think.
  8. Those were the times...
  9. And not specifically country oriented too. I find the shipping rates have generally gotten very high. And then on top of that there are sometimes customs duties additionally. I think from the moment the big online retailers felt they had the market in their hands (and this has even been pushed further by the pandemic) they decided to go up.
  10. Me too. I am right now studying Four on Six from The Incredible Jazz Guitar ...
  11. A very great record of the Chico Hamilton Trio. With George Duvivier and Howard Roberts (mostly) or Jim Hall (at just a couple of tracks). But this is great trio material. Guitar trio, not piano trio.
  12. Revisiting this old classic. I'm mightily enjoying McCoy Tyner here.
  13. Are these the famous no wave Swans? I saw them once in the 80s in a very, very small club out of town. This box is great. I have it too and have already talked about it here. It won a French reissue prize. And about that Cohn-Zims album, I saw it was no Flora cover: it's signed by one Collin or Collins. I only wanted to point out the similarity.
  14. I'm discovering this. It is magnificent, very wide and with a good booklet. I've had it for a while but only now had a chance to listen to it.
  15. Looks like one of those Jim Flora covers. I like Sonic Boom a lot and consider it one of the stronger Lee Morgan releases. Indeed not a bad place at all.
  16. I really love that cover. And the music inside. I even considered framing it and hanging it up. Because of what it means for me and because of the graphics.
  17. Anybody hear from King Ubu? I haven't seen him post in a while.
  18. One of my dearest treasures among the Miles ouevre. It's so noir. Just like the movie. In that sense he made a great work of turning those images or moods into jazz.
  19. Same here. So, really? I just saw a quote from him on TV an hour ago or so. But it must have been because of this. The quote said "I defend small languages and their great cultures." I didn't know.
