JSngry Posted November 28, 2012 Report Posted November 28, 2012 Prompted by an MG post in the vinyl page - How many albums did they release, and what were they? All I know for sure is that they put out what is, for me, the greatest single Lester Young LP ever: Quote
jazztrain Posted November 28, 2012 Report Posted November 28, 2012 Everybody's was one of Jerry Valburn's labels. I'll see if I can put together a list. Quote

JSngry Posted November 28, 2012 Author Report Posted November 28, 2012 Thanks! Valburn, eh? That's unfortunate...but that's still the best Lester Young LP ever (well, it's my favorite anyway...). Quote
