The main CD that caught my attention was Charlie Rouse - Soul Mates (Uptown), largely curious about the interplay between Rouse and Sahib Shihab, but I also got Eddie Harris There Was a Time (Echo of Harlem) (Enja), Larry Young's Mothership (possibly have this in some form already, LP??, but it was cheap), a couple of George Wallington CDs, and Lou Donaldson's Play the Right Thing (Milestone). I suspect I'll end up paying some import fees, but I'll find that out in a week or so. I really like that Eddie Harris CD. I bought it when it came out and I play it pretty frequently. Quote

It definitely looks promising. I also put in an order for a few things on Bandcamp, as it was Bandcamp Friday. Gary Smulyan Royalty at LeDuc Eddie Higgins Haunted Heart Tsapiky! Modern Music From Southwest Madagascar Mr. Bongo Record Club No 7 Soft Boys Underwater Moonlight (not the recent remastered version but an older version with a ton of bonus tracks) Quote

street singer Posted 22 hours ago Report Posted 22 hours ago I've been plugging holes in my Mosaic Select collection over the past month or so, and have scored several at really good prices (about half of these were in the $15-20 range). #9 - Bob Brookmeyer #10 - Bud Shank & Bob Cooper #15 - Art Pepper #19 - Pacific Jazz Piano Trios (feat. Russ Freeman, Richard Twardzik, Jimmy Rowles, Clare Fischer) #21 - Gerry Mulligan #27 - Al Cohn, Joe Newman, and Freddie Green #29 - Onzy Matthews #31 - Woody Herman #34 - Denny Zeitlin The Zeitlin I was familiar with after having had a burned CD-R of it for many years (it's fantastic!). The rest of them are new to me. I haven't gotten past playing the Art Pepper and Pacific Jazz Piano Trios sets, as I've really been stuck on them the past few days. The Pacific Jazz Piano Trios set, in particular, is one that I can't believe I've gone so long without. It's an absolute gem of a set! Quote

I bought the Brookmeyer Select set a few months ago, and I've really enjoyed it. Quote
