Recommended Posts

My good friend who is also an avid music collector got me a crispy vinyl copy of Brick's GOOD HIGH. Well all right!

I picked myself up Freddie Hubbard HUB CAP, Sonny Rollins VOLUME ONE, Johnny "Guitar" Watson A REAL MOTHER FOR YA, and Marvin Gaye TROUBLE MAN. B)

My wonderful girlfriend reeeaaally came through for me this year. She got me the Hank Mobley Mosaic box, the 2004 Blue Note calendar, 'The Blue Note Years: The Jazz Photography of Francis Wolff' (Hardcover)....AND...a really cool set of jazz figurines as seen on this website:

All this jazz stuff...and she doesn't even like jazz! But she knows it makes me happy... :rolleyes:

I didn't actually receive any music cds this year. A transcriptions book perhaps.

I was given some money though which today has been spently (partly) on Stan Getz's Bossa Nova Years box and Sweet Rain (according to a thread here, it's gonna be a while for the VME).

My wife has bought me Belonging by Jarrett for my b'day. And I'll have enough cash left over for when I see some bargains online.

all the best for the new year.

From Mosaic:

The Gerald Wilson Box

Curtis Amy Select

Carmell Jones Select

They also charged and shipped the Mulligan box, inexplicably, but since its not at the top of my list at this point, I told Mom to send it back.

Also:

Johnny Griffin and the Great Danes (Stunt)

Dexter Gordon, The Rainbow People (Steeplechase)

Dan Papaila, on Timeless, with Johnny Hammond Smith and Rickey Woodard

And since Man cannot live by jazz alone:

Lots of good stuff!

The "big one": Anita O'Day - COMPLETE CLEF/VERVE SESSIONS (Mosaic). What a GREAT boxed set this is...I had held off on buying any of her sessions from this era awaiting this box, and it has NOT disappointed. Superb music, O'Day has rocketed to the top of my list of vocalists...Malcom Addey did his usual amazing sonic work, too. Pricey, but recommended HIGHLY.

Baby Dodds - TALKING AND DRUM SOLOS (Atavistic)

Red Rodney - 1957 (Classic Records DAD edition)

Wadada Leo Smith - GOLDEN QUARTET w/DeJohnette, Davis, Favors (Tzadik)

Benny Carter - 3,4,5: THE VERVE SMALL GROUP SESSIONS (Verve)

Hamilton-Clayton Jazz Orchestra - GROOVE SHOP (Capri)
