A CD with a Cartoon pic of Flips and I think all his Verve Recordings from the late 40´s into the early 50´s . And there are some more boppish sounding sides with Howard McGhee on it. Some very fine Flip Phillips is also on that old America label LP "Saturday Night Jazz Session" with Roy Eldrige-Flips Phillips on the first side, and a mixed all star band featuring Fats Navarro on the other side. Flips Phillips really strong on the title "Flip and Jazz". Time to flip again! Now playing: 8 minutes ago, felser said: I dig! The music too! 2 hours ago, Peter Friedman said: A gas! Quote

Did they have world class cutout bins where you lived? My teenage budget learned that that was where a LOT of action was for NOT a lot of money! Quote

Got some of those Riverside and Pacific Jazz reissues from the late 60's/early 70's/whenever for like 57 cents. There was a great store in Philly that sold everything for $1. I was able to get some Blue Note and Prestige cutouts and tons of Cobblestone cutouts there. Later on, Third Street Jazz had some marvelous cutouts, like Black Jazz (Doug & Jean Carn, etc.) for 99 cents each. Quote

I had around 500 jazz LPs by the time I graduated from high school, most from the cutout bins (and many of the same type you mention...talk about getting a "generational" jump on older forms of jazz...a total fluke of time/place, but god, wouldn't trade it for anything, truly a blessing). Moving them into the dorm each year (and back home afterwards) was a bit of a chore. When I got a place of my own, that was actually the first of several causes for celebration! Quote

My 3rd/4th years of college and first five years of jobs were in Philly in the city. I used to go to Third Street Jazz every payday, along with other spots. Had quite a collection in a hurry, and like you, I am thankful. Currently: Quote

What an amazing alignment of circumstances for you guys, hearing all that great music so inexpensively, so early in your lives. I have a wonderful collection of music now. But I still can't help being "retroactively" jealous! Seriously! Edited January 16, 2020 by HutchFan Quote
