No problem, Moose - everybody knows that Duke's Anatomy doesn't count. It is the single allowable exception in self-imposed jazz moratoriums. Heck, buy two or three copies. :g

May have been mentioned earlier in the thread (I haven't read the whole damn thing ^_^ ), but Borders is still conducting a "Buy any 3 jazz CDs, get the 4th one free" sale--I think it runs through this weekend. Last night I picked up the new RVG of Jimmy Smith's ROCKIN' THE BOAT, Carmen McRae's SINGS GREAT AMERICAN SONGWRITERS, Charles Mingus' REINCARNATION OF A LOVEBIRD (yes! finally have all 4 Candids), and Sarah Vaughan's AT MR. KELLEY'S.

I've promised myself not to buy any CDs for a long time & I would have got away with it if it wasn't for those pesky funny ratters...

I don't know if I can wait that long. Fortunately I just received a nice shippment yesterday from CD Universe that I'm checking out this weekend. That should keep me happy for a week or so. :party::party::party:

Some baroque bargains crossing my way today (all only EURO 5 or 10 per CD):

Cantatas by Agostino Steffani, by an ensemble directed by Japanese lutenist Yasunori Imamura, whom I saw perform, reviewed and dig very much

Corelli, Sonatas op.5, by Sonnerie, the group of premier British baroque violinist Monica Huggett

Christmas Cantatas by Alessandro Stradella (the name sounds like a brand of ice cream ...) I know this is not the right season, but it's an excellent version, by a great Italian ensemble and on a rare, regularly very high priced label ... :w

Some old vinyl...

A live Martial Solal date, mid-60's, on Liberty (TRIO IN CONCERT [?]), with Guy Pederson and Daniel Humair. Why? I dig Solal, and this is a great trio. Also, I had never seen this particular recording before.

David "Fathead" Newman, FRONT MONEY, a late 1970's Warner Bros. session. Why? I'm exdpecting anythig great with this one given the era in which it was originally issued, but it was recorded here in Fathead's hometown o Dallas, with old friends and Dallas jazz scene mainstays Roger Boykin, Claude Johnson, and W. A. Richardson.

I spent a few minutes on a Disc Collector´s Fair in Recoletos, Madrid.

-Ornette on tenor

-Italian Instabile Orchestra: European Concerts 1994-97

-Horace Parlan: Up and down (Spanish Time Life edition)

It's Whitsun Monday. A legal holiday here. All shops (or almost) are closed but the good people at Jussieu Jazz not far from my place were open. With plenty of new arrivals (brand new secondhand copy at friendly prices).

Today's purchases (CDs only) include:

- Eric Dolphy 'Left Alone' (the Gaslight Inn gig with Ed Armour, Herbie Hancock, etc.), the Japanese Smash copy. They also had the Lonehill version of this much cheaper but I went for the Japanese copy,

- Borah Bergman/Peter Brotzman/Andrew Cyrille 'Live at the Knitting Factory' (Soul Note),

- Dick Twardzick Trio 'Complete Recordings' (Lonehill),

- Maurice Vander Se Joue Nougaro (Phonogram),

- Saskia Laroo Meets Teddy Edwards 'Sunset Eyes 2000' (Laroo), a Dutch release which I am enjoying right now!

The lot for 45 euros (about $50) :)

And I refrained from buying some more interesting items.
