What vinyl are you spinning right now??

[JSngry]

Right now,

Wow, where did you find that on LP?!?!?!

[sidewinder]

UK Island issue of Time lp.

Still have my copy of that one too. Raised quite a stir when it came out on Island (I remember Richard Williams did a great Melody Maker article on it).

[brownie]

Harry Edison 'Mr. Swing' (Verve, mono)

[paul secor]

John Patton: Soul Connection (Nilva)

[kh1958]

Sonny Philips, Black Magic (Prestige, blue label)

[The Magnificent Goldberg]

This evening

B B King - Blues 'n; jazz - MCA (UK)

Earl Hines - Tour de force - Black Lion

Eric Gale - Touch of silk - Columbia (CBS UK)

One of the best sleeves ever!

MG

[paul secor]

The Best of Booker T & the MG's (Atlantic Japan)

[clifford_thornton]

Bobby Hutcherson - San Francisco featuring Harold Land (UA Van Gelder pressing).

First time I've heard this. Eh. Although Hutch and Harold play their asses off, it isn't doing much for me. The funk/trippy beats are pretty dated.

I like it okay but I don't love it. Think my copy came pretty cheap.

Now:

Brotzmann/Kowald/Vesala/Aaltonen - Hot Lotta - (Blue Master)

[clifford_thornton]

Robert Wyatt - End of an Ear - (CBS UK)

[jeffcrom]

Pete Yellin - Dance of Allegra (Mainstream). Mr. Yellin's debut album featured a pretty impressive band: Eddie Henderson, Kenny Barron, Stanley Clarke, Billy Hart, and Dom Um Romao.

Do the liner notes explain who/what "Allegra" is? Always wondered about that.

There are no liner notes on the album, but a little poking around the web suggests that Allegra is a pretty cool person!

[JSngry]

Wow, yeah, for real. And such a smile!

I love this little bit of detail:

She grew up in Brooklyn, NY, in a family full of musicians, sometimes on tour with her father, saxophonist Pete Yellin, and singing 3 part harmonies with her Bluegrass-pickin' uncles.

Is it time for the Afro Klezmer to meet the Appalachian Klezmer?

I think it just might be!

[clifford_thornton]

I imagine Allegra having that "Snurdy McGurdy" vibe at a young age.

[JSngry]

It's a beautiful thing, that.

'Ira Sullivan' (A&M Horizon)

[Clunky]

A sunny Sunday morning, first up George Cables -Cables Vision- (Contemporary)- electric piano dates it, but none the worse for that.

[The Magnificent Goldberg]

This morning

Charles Brown & Three Blazers - Sunny road - Route 66

(I love Johnny Moore's 'I'll get you later' smile on the cover.)

MG

[brownie]

Bud Powell 'The Return of Buf Powell' (Roulette, stereo)

[colinmce]

Agreed, a wonderful record with a great lineup.

[kh1958]

Gene Ammons, Live in Chicago (Prestige, blue label), and

Jean-Luc Ponty, Critic's Choice (Prestige/MPS, purple label)

[The Magnificent Goldberg]

This afternoon

Lowell Fulson - Chess Blues Masters Series - Checker (All Platinum)

Must get some more Lowell Fulson soon; running low

MG

[Dan Gould]

Keep an eye out for Lowell Folsom - same cat.

Don't listen to vinyl very often but last weekend I was in Naples and checked out a record store in Fort Myers, so this was the weekend for transferring.

So far I've heard

Albert King, I'm in a Phone Booth, Baby (Fantasy)

Muddy Waters, Rare and Unissued (Chess)

Sonny Boy Williamson, One Way Out (Chess)

and half of the Excello Story double LP - all excellent, and in better sound then I expected.

Still to come:

Louis Bellson at the Flamingo (with Sweets as the sole horn) (Verve)

Al Grey & Tony Coe Get it Together - Live at Pizza Express (Maybe one of the Brits knows this one?)

Jimmy McGriff, Cherry (Solid State) - I've no doubt MG knows this one.

[clifford_thornton]

That Grey/Coe looks interesting - fine supporting band on that one, too, it seems.

Now:

Lasse Werner/Lars Sjosten 5 - Club Jazz, vol. 4 - (SR)

[jeffcrom]

Keith Jarrett - Life Between the Exit Signs (Vortex stereo)
