Rev. J M Gates – Bound for Heaven

Is that this, Chuck?

So, is that preachin' or singin' or some of both?

The Reverend recorded around 200 sides - sermons with singing responses from the "congregation" mostly. These sides were done 1926-1941 for a number of companies including Paramount, Gennett, Columbia, Okeh and Victor. I was first introduced to his stuff on a Herwin lp in the '70s. He was a "star".

Some of both. Gates is great! The best selling black artist of 1930! Ellington, Armstrong, Smith - nowhere! (I'm in the process of buying all 9 of his CD complete works compilations on Document. Got 5 so far.)

Phew - overload today!

At 10 past 10, DHL brought me the Sonny Stitt Mosaic box

208.jpg

I don't have any of this material, so it's a good buy for me.

Then at 1 o'clock, the postman brought another box set: Cousin Joe, the complete recordings

2032.jpg

And I only have 1 78 of Cousin Joe, so it's a goodbye for him, too.

Now, when am I going to get time to listen to all this?

Just as I was about to do a runner for the bus to Pontypridd, the postman brought these, but I had to zoom off without even opening the packet!

Rhoda, with Plas Johnson and Red Holloway on tenors. Just starting on this - a mighty groove! (Is anything else possible?)

Crash, with Dr Lonnie Smith. I wouldn't have known about this but CDBaby advertised it on the page with the Rhoda Scott.

And in Ponty, Terry had managed to get this for me, after it being out of stock for a couple of weeks

This is great! Thanks to Rod for introducing it to me (or me to it).

Wow!

Several of the Blue Note Conns for £5 each at 'Fopp' (including 'Tex Book Tenor') plus a batch of the German Fantasy CDs that also seem to be popping up at zweitausendeins - bargain price of £3 each. Both Don Patterson/Booker Ervin 'Legends of Acid Jazz', a couple of Stitt/Ammons 'Left Banks' and several 'limited editions' such as the Jimmy Woods 'Conflict'. Also the nice 4CD 'Riverside Story' for £15 :tup

Did my best to stay off a record buying spree for the past month, however could not resist getting the following vinyls when I came upon them in a small shop in southern France:

- an original copy (without its cover) of the Thelonious Monk piano solo 10-incher on the Swing label,

- Nick Brignolia's 'Baritone Madness' (with Pepper Adams, Ted Curson, etc...) on Beehive.

I had an original (complete with cover) of the Monk solo album which I was stupid enough to trade for various LPs in one of my first visit to the Jazz Record Center in New York a long time ago.

Sound on the Swing Monk is still unmatched!
