What is it?

Compilation of blues/r&b, many obscure. Vinyl issues in the 80s (I think) followed by CDs.

I've found the vocal stylings of Redd Foxx on one of the CD issues, as well as "Little" George Benson's first recordings.

Philly Joe Jones, Round Midnight (Lotus)

Concert in Italy with Dizzy Reece in the front line and is Ben Jedig really Bent Jaedig? I'm thinking its gotta be which makes me think I will enjoy this one.

Yes, it is this release:

Thanks. Funny how the same release lists "Ben Jedig".

Anyway, our final acquisition is coming on, The Tender Touch of Junior Mance - Martin Rivera Duo (Nilva).

$4.99 hits the spot a lot better than the $40 copy I saw on eBay which looks to be far worse for wear, too.

Fats Domino Presents Dave Bartholomew and His Great Big Band (Imperial stereo). A fun, lightweight listen. The main soloist is an organist named "Bobby James," who seems to have existed only for this session, never before or afterwards. I'm thinking it's James Booker, who played on almost every Bartholomew session during this period. But on Bartholomew's singles Booker's name didn't appear on the labels. Here the personnel is listed on the back cover (and it's mighty impressive) - a problem, since Booker was under contract to Peacock at the time.
