What music did you buy today?

[sidewinder]

Just taken advantage of the Blue Note Store's 20% off sale to pick up a few of the Tone Poets on my back-list (Tex Book Tenor, Byrd's Eye View etc.)

Talking of 'Byrd's Eye View' I actually handled a mega-rare Esquire pressing of that one the other week. It even had an original Transition booklet included within it.

Slipped already,

added The Complete Pacific Jazz And Capitol Recordings Of The Original Gerry Mulligan Quartet And Tentette With Chet Baker 

to today's purchases. That should scratch my West Coast itch for a while I hope.

I daren't look at the BN sale!

[sidewinder]

Prepare to buy some more storage racks..

Thanks @Pim, your enthusiasm for them here was a small part of the reason I decided to go for them. I've been rediscovering Chet recently 

Do you have the Chet Live Quartets with Freeman Mosaic? The seller has that listed to.

No I haven’t. I did listen to some samples a few years ago and can only remember I found it too much money for what I heard.

Thanks, I thought one was enough and  though the reviews of the live box were good it made sense to start with the studio dates I think

Since Pure Pleasure ended their Strata-East reissue series, I decided to spring for this LP before they're all gone:

Shamek Farrah & Sonelius Smith - The World of the Children (Strata-East/Pure Pleasure)

 

[jazzbo]

Gregory Groover Jr. "Negro Spiritual Songbook Vol. 2--The Message"

 

 

[HutchFan]

Just ordered these from Dusty Groove:

 

 

 

Two CDs that have been on my list for a long time -- and one that was too inexpensive to pass up.

Amazing set!

[mjazzg]

Yeah, first listen suggests so.

I remember deciding it was too expensive when I held a physical copy in Honest Jons on release. When I got the notification of the download this morning it was an instant purchase.

Thnx for the hint .... the freebies @ Bandcamp sound tempting ....

The Complete Blue Note Recordings Of Herbie Nichols - Mosaic

This music has haunted me, in a good way, since I borrowed it from the library about 20 years ago. Finally decided I needed to have it on tap.

Also, 

Collocutor - Continuation LP

Tamar Osborn and Idris Rahman - Conversations download

Both featuring Osborn whose playing, improvising and writing I'm increasingly intrigued by and enjoying
