Thanks, Bev, for bringing this one to my attention, though a new formula/syndrome is emerging:

Stitt + Fresh Sound = pain in the wallet

Bill, Did you spot that Fresh Sound have issued Stitt's Blows the Blues and The Hard Swing coupled on one cd. Ordered yesterday.

That's what I mean! More pain!

Buddy DeFranco -- "1949 - 1952 Studio Performances" (chronological classics)

I like snagging some of these Chrono Classics when they're offered at a reasonable price, as this one was ($9 and change, new).

William Parker Organ Quartet: Uncle Joe's Spirit House (ltd. ed. 1000) - direct from Aum Fidelity

[TheMusicalMarine]

Just got a few Chronogical Classics in the mail:

Mildred Bailey 1938

Gene Krupa 1940, V3, and 1945

Benny Goodman 1941-1942

Charlie Ventura, 1951-1953 and 1946-1947

Bunny Berigan 1935-1936

Charlie Barnet 1940, V2

Count Basie 1946-1947

Cozy Cole 1944

Red Nichols 1928-1929

I kick myself for putting off buying this series back when Alldirect.com existed and had them for reasonable prices, but even so, I got these off of Amazon marketplace for about $10 including shipping. About half of them were shrink-wrapped. I don't know why certain titles are so much cheaper than others, but I'll take 'em.

Some of the best Ted Brown on record.

[BillF]

That's nice to hear, Paul! I thought I'd discovered this one alone! The only other Ted Brown I have is on Tristano/Marsh, Intuition. I'd be pleased to hear any of your Ted Brown recommendations.

Picked this up on the cheap:

All Ted Brown's sessions are excellent IMO - can't go wrong, pity he's only been recorded so sparingly.

Thanks for posting that link. I haven't been around here as long as some of you guys, so I hadn't seen that thread, but I'm glad I did, just for Jim's post #21. That was brilliant.

Took some finding, now OOP. Memo to self - do not leave it so late next time. :blush2:

Bill Evans You Must Believe In Spring

They are days I feel like a dork buying and collecting all this music and they are other days I feel cool for doing it, it's one those days I felt that picking up this stuff was the most uplifting thing I did this week and I have the coolest hobby in the world.

Peter Bernstein x 2:

[Leeway]

HOXHA: Dylan van der Schyff, drums; Paul Rutherford, trombone; Ken Vandermark, tenor sax, clarinet; Torsten Muller, bass. Recorded live in Portland, Oregon, December 12, 2004. SPool Records CD. I'm a huge Vandermark fan, and this looked like an interesting situation for him. Plus the other musicians are all first-rate.

After reading 48 pages of thoughts on this box on the site, I figured I should find out what the fuss was about.

Got a great deal on it - £100 for the mono set at HMV. :rsmile:
