And essential recordings! 

This "greatest hits" disc is a more than worthy supplement. I have both.

Hank Mobley: Another Workout

[Bluesnik]

[HutchFan]

NP:

Milt Jackson - Second Nature: The Savoy Sessions (Savoy, rec. 1956)
with Lucky Thompson (ts), Hank Jones [or Wade Legge] (p), Wendell Marshall (b), and Kenny Clarke (d)

Bags and Lucky Thompson together with that rhythm section. No surprise that this is so good. 

 

 

Earlier, while driving home from work:

Elvis Presley - Walk a Mile in My Shoes: The Essential 70's Masters (RCA)
Disc 3

Surprisingly potent music, even when it shouldn't be. The guy could just sing, and that can get lost in the shuffle sometimes.

Nat Adderley - In the Bag (Jazzland OJC). An overlooked album featuring several fine New Orleans musicians.

Miles Davis - the Airegin/Oleo session, from the Prestige Chronicle box set.

AMM - AMMMusic 1966 (Matchless). This 1989 CD issue has track divisions so that you can program to listen to the original LP edit. That's what I'm doing tonight.

Marion Brown: Three for Shepp

Jeff and someone else (can't recall who right now - sorry) posted that they listened to this recently. Got me to listen to it and it's held up well over the years.

Ray Bryant - Now's the Time (Doctor Jazz)

Milt Jackson: Wizard of the Vibes

[jeffcrom]

Gregg Stafford and the Easy Riders Jazz Band - Walking With the King (Jazz Crusade)

[jeffcrom]

Sidney Bechet - Jazz Nocturne 1: Bunk, Bocage & Bechet in Boston (Jazz Crusade). This series opens with perhaps the best music Bechet and Bunk Johnson produced during Bechet's 1945 residency at the Savoy Cafe - a rehearsal, during which Bechet plays only clarinet. (Bunk disliked Bechet's soprano sax.). There's also a broadcast with Peter Bocage, who replaced Bunk for a few weeks.
