Keystone must have been a fantastic venue. I think I have a few albums that were recorded there , one might be an Art Blakey thing "In this Korner", one is a fantastic Pharoah Sanders, I think for a short time there was also a Dexter Gordon  album from Korner, and I read somewhere that Mingus also performed there, but I don´t think there is an album.

You're right. There are SO MANY excellent recordings from the Keystone.  Along with the ones that you've listed, some of my faves are by Bobby Hutcherson, Cedar Walton, Rahsaan Roland Kirk, Jaki Byard, Woody Shaw, and Yusef Lateef.

There's actually an excellent book about the club, Keystone Korner: Portrait of a Jazz Club by Kathy Sloane.

The Włodzimierz Nahorny Trio – HeartR-25739707-1673485763-5429.jpg.9b10decf737179d5bf6ae0874657e23a.jpg

First listen. It really knocks me out that after all this time there are still so many of these Polish Jazz releases that I have never heard but that are of such high quality.

Obscure but very good. Paul Chambers' interaction with Eddie Costa is a highlight, as is Billy Byers' trombone playing. Hal is heard on tenor and clarinet as well as alto; it's probably his best album.
