And ending my working day with:

Miles Davis ‎– Birdland 1951 (Blue Note)

The Miles Davis 1951 at Birdland is fantastic ! I also have that CD with the complete material. In my youth there as a red LP with most of the material, on an italian Label it was titled "Miles Davis at his rare of all rarest performances" . Red cover. Everybody loved it. They just would ask you "Did you get the "red Miles Davis album" .......?

Yes, I think that former LP only included one of the two sessions with Sonny Rollins.

Now:

Right !

The tracks from February were missing, it was only "Half Nelson", "Mike´s Blues" (that´s how they had mistitled "Down"), and "Move" and "The Squirrel" from september 51 with Eddie Lockjaw Davis.

Wonderful, and fitting to the 1951 Davis. I often spin this early Rollins and then Miles´"Dig" also featuring Rollins.

Will do!

And also from the same period "Miles Davis and Horns". Actually, on the Sonny Rollins album Miles plays piano on one track. It was Miles´ session and he asked Weinstock to give Rollins a date as a leader.

Jackie McLean "Demon's Dance" (Blue Note) .... SHM-CD from 2014 ....

[sidewinder]

Just arrived from Westbrookjazz - Mike Westbrook Orchestra Catania, 1992 2CDs. Considering that this was put together from a number of sources (DAT, reel to reel etc) it not only sounds great but is a huge tribute to the editing skills of the late Jon Hiseman.

Quite a bit of ‘Citadel/Room 315’ on CD1.

In a word - superb !
