I went to Newbury Comics in Cambridge, MA to find something for my nephew's birthday. While I was there I thought I'd browse their used jazz CDs. After combing the racks and ending up empty handed, I was about to leave when an employee invited me to check out the cardboard boxes hidden underneath the racks.

So tonight I bought these:

Von Freeman - The Improvisor (Premonition Records)

Gigi Gryce - The Rat Race Blues (Prestige/New Jazz/OJC)

Archie Shepp - Four for Trane ((Impulse!)

Jimmy Smith - La Metamorphose des Cloportes (Universal/France)

All under $10, and all but the Shepp several dollars under that figure. And though all were marked as "used" all but the Shepp were sealed copies. Go figure.

Yes. Devil is always waiting ´round the corner.... :D

i don't like to say this :) but I just browsed their online catalogue and there really were some additions (Pat Martino - Strings, Wes Montgomery - Full House, Harold Land - In the Land of Jazz, and more...)

I bought yesterday: Kenny Dorham 2 Horns // 2 Rhythm and Joe Albany with Warne Marsh

Man, these look good. Very good.

Very, very nice stuff. On first listen, though I've got some other Crayton stuff - Imperials and Blues Spectrum - this is really putting Pee Wee in the forefront of West Coast blues. Very different to T-Bone, despite his obvious and admitted debt. Much more jazzy on instrumentals (and a LOT more instrumentals than other bluesmen did) and showing a bit of another debt - CC. (T-Bone also owed something to CC, but didn't show it much.)

I was reminded of some Kenny Burrell blues licks. I wonder if Kenny listened to Pee Wee when he was a lad.

Ran into a great sale at Tower Record today; a bunch of Impulse! cds on sale for $9.99, and if you bought four, you got the fifth one free. So I was able to get a jump start on my late-Coltrane cds.

John Coltrane:

Living Space

Stellar Regions

Impressions

Coltrane

Meditations

Interstellar Space

Sun Ship

Kulu Se Mama

Sonny Rollins: Sonny Rollins On Impluse!

Roy Haynes Quartet: Out Of The Afternoon
