I think I'll order the Eddie "Lockjaw"Ā Davis Johnny Griffin from this series next. Have you heard it? Is the sound as good as the Woody Shaw?

The sound is not as good as on the Woody Shaw, but still very good .... and the music is excellent indeed ....

I can tell you that it's among the friskier Jaws/Griff sides of all time, one of the very friskiest, in fact.

I only have the outstanding (performance & sound)Ā Promising Music reissue of Though Tenors Again NĀ Again, originally MPS. Where should I go from there? The early Prestige OJCs? The other new live dateĀ Ow! Live At The Penthouse?

I'd go to this Onkel Po thing, then to Griff & Lock (part of the OJC Blues Up & Down CD), and then to the rest of the OJCs, stopping for Ow! somewhere along the way, and not stop until you have them all.

Use this as a gauge, though. If it doesn't do it for you, stop now and wuit while you're ahead:

You might start with twoĀ OJCs that were my "gateway drug" for this duo: The Tenor Scene and Live at Minton's.Ā  With an outstanding rhythm section: Junior Mance, Larry Gales and Ben Riley.Ā  ... But you can hardly go wrong with Griff & Lock.Ā  They're all good.

I found a sealed copy of Blues Up & Down on Discogs. The OnkelĀ Po was already in my Jazz Messengers cart for theĀ next monster order.

Thanks.Ā
