40 Acres & A Burro" by Arturo O'Farrill

to go alongside recent acquistions of

Ninety Miles by David Sanchez, Stefon Harris and Christian Scott (CD/DVD)

and a download-only of Blueprints by Chicago Afro Latin Jazz Ensemble (saw CALJE last night at the Green Mill -- they were pretty good and a few songs were excellente!)

Just bought a used copy (NM condition) of The Complete Maynard Ferguson Roulette recordings from Mosaic. I've wanted this for awhile and one came up for a reasonable price, so I puled the trigger!!! :party:

Also, there was an Amazon listing for a Count Basie Roulette Live recordings (Mosaic) set a Johnny Hodges Verve (Mosaic) set that were priced suspiciously low (like $30) but I bought them, so we shall see what arrives, I could have gotten a great deal....

Let us know! I spotted what seemed like an authentic Benny Goodman OKeh set for 23.95 via Import_cds or one of those a couple months back. Couldn't afford it (sad) but hope someone got the deal.

I've generally been pretty good, selling off far more than I've taken in, though I couldn't resist a few on my last trip through DG, selling them $100 worth of LPs but picking these up:

Heck of a line-up: Curtis Fuller, Kenny Dorham, Zoot Sims, Al Cohn, Herbie Mann and Ahmad Abdul-Malik. We'll see how it coheres. Sadly it is on the short side -- just around 42 minutes.

Then just for a lark

So in addition to Herb Geller's Fire in the West (which seems to be the same as That Geller Feller), I got Two of a Kind, which is a compilation of the EmArcy LPs of Herb and Lorraine Geller. Looks pretty interesting, even though I am not terribly familiar with Geller. Kind of a lesser known figure over here at least (probably a lot better known in Germany).

First trip to Half Price Books in well over a year and a half. Bought Von Freeman's Live at the Dakota(Premonition)brand new.

"Footprints" from that album raises the hair on the back of my neck.

Warne Marsh Release Record - Send Tape

That's a winner! :tup

Along with any other Marsh, I didn't listen to any bad album of his.

Finally broke down and bought Herbie Nichols's Complete Blue Note Recordings box - a big expenditure, but will call it a (recent) birthday present.
