Art Blakey--The African Beat (Blue Note, NY USA mono). An abused copy, but crank it up to 11 and it still sounds pretty darn great.

Ahmad Jamal at the Pershing, But Not for Me (Argo)--It seems miraculous to find a 50 year old record that looks virtually new and appears to have never been played, but I found this copy today.

Charlie Parker on Dial, volume 4 (Spotlite)

All that wonderful stuff! The October 28 1947 session. :tup

Yes, I'm very happy to have the Spotlight box set of the Complete Dial studio recordings.

Is this the best reissue on LP of this material? Or were there other earlier issues of this material with better sound?

Wouldn't know about that. Just bought the albums when they came out in the 70s. :)

Anyone know how does the sound quality of the 1970s Spotlite LPs compare with their 4CD reissue? I'm tempted to get the CDs..

Lee Konitz; Satori. Milestone

I love that one. It was such a revelation to me when I first heard it years ago.

Nice enough but it didn't quite grab like it used to.

Next up

Paul Motian; Monk in Motian; JMT

Haven't heard the Spotlites on CD, but I can say this. I first bought some Parker Dial tracks in 1959 on a French Guilde du Jazz 10" LP and, as I recall, the sound was so dire that when the Spotlites emerged, they sounded like a revelation.
