Two Jeanne Lee's including the Mal Waldron duo. I already own them both.

A downtempo Helen Merrill date for late night listening.

And today, not jazz, but on my list - two by Sharon Jones and the Dap-Kings - (recommended by JSngry)

Hi - Our entire catalog (approximately 170 titles) will all be on emusic in the next couple of weeks. Some of them, unfortunately, can only be downloaded in US and Canada as we do not control worldwide rights for some.

SS,

I have the the Tampa Pepper/Paich on vinyl. I found it at a Goodwill store in Ellensberg, Washington. Paid $5.00 for it if I recall correctly. It's in nice condition. I've often wondered about its value. BTW, for what its worth, the LP has a yellow cover.

As to the music, geez, for $.25 or so a song, it's awfully hard to go wrong. But, to set your mind at ease, the music is excellent...you won't be disappointed.

Up over and out.

new over on emusic, worth the d/l?

Hi SS1,

Yep, definitely grab that Marsh date! While you're at it, Music For Prancing is also another great Marsh album on eMusic.

As an aside: The other day, I was just starting to download my 90 tracks for the month (got about 9 tracks or so), when my account was automatically refreshed back to 90! It seems it was the last day of my account month, and so I basically "lost" 81 tracks! It wasn't on the normal day (usually the 28th or 29th of a month), so I was pissed!

My message to eMusic asking that my 81 "lost tracks" be restored was answered within two days... and they did restore them for me! So, a big :tup to eMusic's customer service!

Cheers,

Shane

Oh, and any specific blues or reggae suggestions also gratefully accepted :)

Hi All,

I just noticed that eMusic has added about 25 more titles from the Blood And Fire label... some GREAT stuff included! :tup

My "sleeper" suggestion... try Trinity - Shanty Town Determination. I bought it on CD a couple of years ago, and it's been on heavy rotation ever since!

Cheers,

Shane

Good new stuff:

Byard Lancaster's It's Not Up To Us features some good Sonny Sharrock in a rockish style, somewhat reminiscent of the Byrds Eight Miles High. Not a fusion date, but just a little rock influence creeping in.

A live Sheila Jordan with Cameron Brown.

Naxos Classical beginning to show up.

Older, but still stuck in my CD changer is Memphis Blood: the Sun Sessions by James Blood Ulmer. Blues, not jazz, but raw and real and entrancing.

I d/l last night Jack McDuff: Tough Duff, The Honeydripper, Brotherly Love. Eric Alexander: Alexander the Great and The Battle: Live at Smoke, and finally Horace Silver Paris Blues. I really wish I still had my microsoft publisher on the comp (lost my Office XP disc oops) to print the cover art.

Hi Jeff,

I downloaded all 11 CDs of the Dexter Gordon Prestige set, and am damn glad I did. I've had a bit of it on CD before, but decided to snag the whole thing off of eMusic. Basically, those 11 CDs (88 tracks in total) cost me about $17! I can't argue with that... and I can find a lot of the information about each album online if need be.

Again, if anyone digs reggae at all, especially the roots and dub stuff of the late '60s and the '70s, I encourage y'all to d/l stuff from the Blood and Fire label... they now have about 50 albums available on eMusic. Great stuff! :tup

Cheers,

Shane

Sorry if this was already mentioned, but there is an unusual Riverside album called John Benson Brooks' Alabama Concerto Featuring Cannonball Adderley / Art Farmer, which doesn't really show up if you are doing a search for Adderley (easier to search by title). I was hipped to this album, which is sort of a jazz/folk/classical thing, by David's Night Lights' program called Juneteenth in the archives. Cool stuff, though I can't download the rest of the album for another couple of weeks.

Hi All,

Some new stuff on eMusic this week that is pretty interesting. I've notice 3 new titles on the Unique Jazz label, which appear to be live boots... there is one from Ornette Coleman (5 songs, 36:23), one from Eric Dolphy (4 songs, 36:17), and one from Bill Evans (8 songs, 39:45).

What the hell are these things???

I note that there have been two previous titles on the Unique Jazz label, John Coltrane - Live in 1962! (3 songs, 40:13), and Charles Mingus - Live in Stuttgart 1964! (4 songs, 41:25).

Anyone have these and can shed insight as to exactly what they are?

Cheers,

Shane

Hi All,

Hey, I also noticed the "new" addition to eMusic this week:

John Coltrane - Live At The Half Note on the Audio Fidelity label. This thing has 6 songs (75:34 total), but they don't seem to correspond to the new Impulse! Coltrane - One Down One Up release. The songs are:

1. Chim Chim Cheree (18:30)

2. I Want To Talk About You (10:11)

3. Impressions (14:52)

4. One Up One Down (7:08)

5. Song Of Praise (18:33)

6. Untitled Original (6:20)

I've checked Wild's Discography about this release, but I don't see any Half Note release with these songs/times... Anyone know what this is???

Cheers,

Shane

Edit: My initial response wasn't quite accurate. Here is what AMG says:

Despite the inaccurate information given on this three-LP box set (which states that all of the music was recorded at the Half Note in 1963; none of it actually was), these rare performances are quite fascinating. "I Want to Talk About You" and "One Up, One Down" actually originated from Birdland on Feb. 23, 1963 and, although the other six performances are from Half Note, they date from March 19 ("Impressions" and "Chim Chim Cheree"), April 12 ("Untitled Original") and May 7 ("Brazilia," "Song of Praise" and "My Favorite Things") of 1965. Coltrane is in particularly fiery form on the later tracks and with four of the eight selections being over 19 minutes long, there is plenty of room for him to stretch out. It's recommended despite the erratic packaging but sure to be hard-to-find.

For those of you who like punk and "post-rock", I just got an email that Dischord has been added to emusic, which shocked me.

It also appears that most of the Leo catalog is no longer available.
