From The Jazz Loft:

Miles Davis - "Live at Montreux" (1969) Great, but really recoded at Antibes.

Horace Tapscott - Vol. 8

The Jazz Loft also mistakenly sent Cecil's "One Too Many Salty Swift". I already have that one and had ordered Horace Tapscott's "The Dark Tree, Volumes 1 & 2" (same label but different pianist). I'll have to straighten that out next year.

Lisa Sokolov - Presence I rarely enjoy jazz vocals, but Downbeat gave this 5 stars, and the downloadable sound snippets give me the impression that this is very creative music.

David Murray - Now Is Another Time Murray does salsa.

Geoff Keezer - Zero One He covers Radiohead and Bjork, and performs his own tune Hibiscus, which was the highlight of the Storms/Nocturns trio recording.

I am almost afraid to admit this. Especially around here...

I bought (yes, for the first time) Jimmy Smith's Back at the Chicken Shack. I now understand what all the fuss was about. Easily one of my favorite Smith albums. Of course now I have to run out and get Midnight Special. :rolleyes:

A '97 Red Record release of Victor Lewis' titled Three Way Conversations. It's a piano-less trio release featuring Victor & Ed Howard together with three horns - Steve Wilson, Terell Stafford and Seamus Blake. I bought it from Victor himself at a cd release party tonight. All of the tunes are written by V.L. Very curious about this, will give it a spin when I get up this morning.

Found this at a used CD/DVD store in Tamarac, FL for $7.99:

g35496xh6xm.jpg

Two years ago, while on a brief visit to my native NYC, I stopped by the Vanguard after midnight (had checked out Gary Bartz at the Jazz Standard earlier in the evening) to check out Greg Osby and was favorably impressed, yet had not thought to pick up a CD until now. Half of the disc is devoted to G.O.'s compositions within a quartet setting - good stuff. But I really enjoyed stimulating versions of "Bernie's Tune", "'Shaw Nuff" and "Summertime", wherein Nicholas Payton joins the front line. Finally, Joan Osborne guests for a vocal on "Lover Man". Very good find!
