What vinyl are you spinning right now??

[paul secor]

Paul Bley/NHOP (Steeplechase)

[JSngry]

Bunky Green - My Babe (Exodus mono). Bunky's first, I believe, with Donald Byrd, Jimmy Heath, and Wynton Kelly.

My copy has thumbtack holes in the corners of the opened gatefold from where the thumbtacks went to pin it up on the wall back in the day.

Can't say that I blame the original owner....

I was the original owner!

My roommates proposed the "pinup" idea, and I had no reason to resist, so up on the wall it went.

The back cover is as attractive as the front, btw, although Sports Car Bunky (that's what I call it, anyway, even if there's not a car in sight) on the inside is a riot.

Art Hodes - Mostly Blues (Audiophile stereo). I've mentioned this one before, I think, although I can't find a good picture online. It's an excellent quintet date (Marty Grosz on guitar) on a fabulous-sounding 1957 stereo (!) album.

Now:

Okeh Western Swing (Epic), disc two.

Forgot to mention this afternoon spin:

Hampton Hawes All-Stars - Memory Lane Live (JAS). A 1970 jam session with Harry Edison, Sonny Criss, Teddy Edwards, Leroy Vinnegar, Bobby Thompson, and Big Joe Turner. While looking for a picture online I discovered that this one has received the Fresh Sound treatment.

Now playing:

Knocky Parker/Omer Simeon - Parker-Simeon Storyville Creepers (GHB). A nice 1949 concert with Arthur Herbert on drums.

[jeffcrom]

Percy Humphrey - At Manny's Tavern (Center). 1953 dance hall tapes by a five-piece band, including Sweet Emma Barrett.

[brownie]

Al Haig 'Blue Manhattan' (Bopland)

[Clunky]

John Jenkins/Kenny Burrell- (Blue Note Toshiba)- I find this easier on the ear than the Conn CD of this session. This Toshiba is a little lifeless though where as the Conn is bright with cymbals much louder than the Toshiba. Anyone have the Music Matters edition of this fine session care to comment???

[colinmce]

These are neat!

Time to post some French and Swedish Atlantics with alternate covers, eh?

Can't see Clifford's, but brownie's comes through ok.

Did a search and Clifford's image seems to be a non-U.S. edition of Ornette's Free Jazz.

No, very clear with all those guys in Buddy Holly specs.

Teddy Edwards It's all right ! ( Prestige blue label trident)- very good session which sounds excellent even if it was recorded by Richard Alderson. Nice line up including Jimmy owen , Cedar Walton and Garnett Brown.

Joe Newman 'Salute to Satch' (RCA Victor, mono)
