I look forward to hearing the AEC/Fred Anderson set. Guest artists with working bands don't always come off, but I hope that this one does.

Against my better judgment, I bought three Mosaic Select sets today. Found them used at about the last place in town I'd ever think to look for such a thing. Picked up Randy Weston, Duke Person ($35/each) and Cooper/Shank ($19). It wasn't a huge savings, but they had a buy five get one deal and the wife had some DVDs she wanted, so it evened out.

I don't even know if the Cooper and Shank set is my bag, but for $19, what the shit?

Thelonious Monk - Live At The It Club

I'm giving some Monk a try after intentionally passing him by for as long as I've been into jazz. I may just be starting to get him. I found this one new/sealed/delivered for $7.99 so I couldn't pass it up. This comes along with some other new Monks I've been picking up on the cheap. Brilliant Corners ($5.00), Genius of Modern Jazz vol. 1 and the Thelonious Monk Quartet with John Coltrane at Carnegie Hall from BMG for $2.79 each.

Wayne Shorter - Second Genesis

This fills a gap in my early Shorter CDs.

Joy of joy's!! In the discount rack, for .99 cents, in mint condition: Irma Victoria and the Hatebox Experience "Phantasmagoria--The second coming" Mind and Media label.

astounding Danish female "singer". Quite disturbing and fresh. I have several other CDs by her, but only had a tape, provided to me by Boyd Rice, of this fab CD.

Check her out! Mos def not for everybody. She died in the early 2000's. UNIQUE!!! :tup

You will be very happy with that purchase. Its was also a steal at 7.99. The Charlie Rouse fan club meets on Thursday nights.
