NYC Music Stops,

[Jazz Kat]

I went Downtown today to J&R Music World, and Virgin Records for the first time in my life. WOW!!! What a selection. I bought Sonny Rollins The Bridge, The Shape Of Jazz To Come, and I Wanna Hold Your Hand. What stores!!! I wish I was closer to Downtown, I'd live there! And not expensive, by any means. Some of the Miles and Coltrane cd's were seperated by album!

I envy you, having access to all those great stores. I do most of my buying online, but I miss those long leisurely afternoons going through the inventory at Jazz Record Mart.

Enjoy listening to your new sides! You picked up some great music!

EDIT: When I first saw this thread's title I thought "Uh oh, what club has closed now!?"

Thanks, my dad even liked John S! I played out Rollins's Bridge already, alittle bit of Grant Gree, Ornette, Shape Of Jazz To Come is spinning now. I heard alot of these records. I heard Chronilogy, John S., I Wanna Hold Your Hand, Focus On Sanity, and Congeniately on compilations and stuff but I needed the whole albums. So this is what I picked from the numerous cd's available at J&R and Virgin. The meter was set for only an hour so my dad was rushing me, "come on hurry up," I almost went crazy, needed a breath of air, I just stood there for about 10 minutes looking at all the disks! It truley was heaven! Some cuts you would never expect, they got lots of em! Ones you would think they would have, like Meet The Jazztet, and they dont got it! Oh well, I'm enjoying what I got.
