once again thnx for giving guidance, as a very nice japanese copy found a good home in Vienna/Austria

another esteemed goodie of mine featuring Buster Williams....

Art Farmer......Jimmy Woode......Mal Waldron.....

Sweet Smoke "Just a Poke" (EMI Columbia) 1970

Fleet Foxes "Helpless Blues" (Bella Union) 2011

Mike, a comment/appraisal from your side on "Virgo Vibes", as this is available via the recent japanese Atlanic Reissue Series, would come highly appreciated......

Go back 10 posts. yes realized that.......stumbled over the cover and posted withou cheking ......

Unfortunately I can't see the the record you`re rerefering too - could you pls specify in writing ? And your damn right about his playing with the Crusaders, which for me raised them another level.....

Yes the Buster Williams-Al Foster rhythm tandem fits perfectly....although not really being a big fan of the Venus productions overall, this one is excellent

Thnx....but - which one with Woody Shaw you dig most ?

Mike, thnx for your speedy feedback - yes the two Jimmy Rowles Choice outings are superb....have to confess that I do not now any of the three Hancock Mwandishi recordings though.....

After listening recently to following records I was more more than ever amazed by Buster Williams and his playing - of course, as he was a frequent contributor to recording sessions, I should have a number of these in my collection - nevertheless I would be interested, which recordings - from other boardmember`s perspective - show his abilities to best effect.....

I`ve recently asked for this issue vie the LF thread....... Here we have the additional 5 tracks listed : http://www.discogs.com/Al-Haig-Trio-Invitation/release/1712336 A helpfull boardmember linked me to the Amazon.jp site, where one copy is on offer (for 220 USD + postage !!!) - as the info is written in japanese, not sure about the cd`s condition (could be "very good"), but (again in japanese) contentwise 13 tracks are listed...... As mentioned i would LOVE to hear these tracks (in whichever form...), but the forementioned offer on Amazon.jp was conditionwise too risky to me... Hopefully another boardmemner can spread a little bit light (or more...) on that....
