I'm planning to buy that one on Sunday

That's a great suggestion!

yes yes yes!

Hey, that's post-McLuhan there Wonderful, though!

Yes, in 1992, SV-0194. Was very happy to see it turn up in my mailbox after ordering it from a sales mailing list of a Swiss shop (they have good offers, but if someone's faster than you ...)

Yes on Melis! Also this one: And HELLYEAH on South Africa! There's plenty of dedicated threads around, I'd rather have the OP look them up instead of this thread going "recommend all music from after 1960 that you like" (which is where it's been heading from the git-go ... it's all post-Coltrane music anyway ;-)). This one's the best entry point, I guess: http://www.organissimo.org/forum/index.php?showtopic=32699 But there are others ... I pulled together several links once, there might be newer threads I missed back then:

He's pre-Coltrane But then, seriously, what jazz from around 1965 onwards isn't "post Coltrane" in one way or another, anway? Okay, Louis Armstrong's All Stars and Ellington's and Basie's bands were still around, but ...

Sahib Shihab sends "Herr Fixit" (and another nice model) to help:

And in France, there's Barney Wilen, too ... Martial Solal has been mentioned ... there's also René Urtreger, who made some great recordings ...Henri Texier, too (the three Romano-Sclavis-Texier albums are all easily recommended), Michel Portal (of whom I don't know many official releases, but he's a great musician!), Louis Sclavis (who has made among other things a lengthy series of good ECM albums) ... Bernard Peiffer is pre-bop, but in a way that many fans of modern jazz should enjoy (and his postumous disc "Formidable" shows he went modern, too).

recently go the old Savoy/Denon of this one ... very good album!

Regarding Doldinger, his early stuff is fine indeed. German Universal put out this 4CD set some years ago, seems it's OOP and expensive now, though: I'd love to see a proper reissue of "Blues Happening", which is slightly later and very good! Doldinger is also on this one, short buy nice tunes (and still available): As far as Kühn goes, all his albums with brother Joachim from the sixties are good, and a few have been reissued lately, the first one on Impulse is a classic, but already OOP as well, it seems ... so is the second, which is a bit messier (and yeah, that's Karl Berger of course): But there's also this one, from the recent batch of Amiga (GDR) reissues, which is still around: speaking of Amiga, and since plenty of stuff with more or less clear avantgarde leanings has already been mentioned anyway, this one's effin' amazing: Since Man with the Golden Arm has been mentioned, I must give huge props to my man couw for hooking me up with much of this stuff, some years ago!

never came around checking him out so far ... but I recently stumbled over this:

Some from Poland ... The "Polish Jazz Quartet" has been reissued as by Jan "Ptaszyn" Wroblewski, the great tenor saxophonist, too ... and the Calig LP by Stanko is phantastic too! The first of the two Namyslowskis is the one to absolutely get ...

My best guess below, though I'd really like to her the opinion of some of you who are familiar with all these musicians from back in the day! Dizzy Gillespie (t), Barney Wilen (ts), Stan Getz (ts), Rodney Jones (g) ,Mike Richmond (b), Mickey Roker (d), Billy Hart (cga, perc) 1. I Can't Get Started 2. A Night in Tunisia Dizzy Gillespie (t, voc, mouthharp), Barney Wilen (ts #3-4), J.C. Heard (d #4-5) on #5 add Hank Jones (p), Milt Hinton (b) 3. Improvisation After the Rain (Gillespie-Wilen) 4. Dizzy Banter > Ceciliana (Mouthharp Improvisation) 5. Love for Sale (Cole Porter) Getz, Dizzy and Barney are for sure, Jones, Hinton and Heard are being named during "Love for Sale" (which is called "Ceciliana" in the subs, but Dizzy mentions that title before he starts his mouthharp improv, during which Barney - who kinda left already - awkwardly tries to rejoin, while Heard starts joining in on drums (standing behind the kit and using his hands). The first track, "I Can't Get Started" (where the opening notes are missing) can be watched on Youtube as well: The remaining tracks are on the video already linked to in the previous post.

comes with another cover in the age of CD ... fine one, with Larry Young, cover, discographies and common knowledge notwithstanding - read it up here: http://www.organissimo.org/forum/index.php?showtopic=144

Just about to finish a first listen to "Duet" ... can anyone tell me who's in which channel? Sounds like it's always the same split/aural situation, but I wouldn't really be sure, not being as familiar with Myers or Abrams as I feel I should be (well, I'm working on it!) Btw, the first album with Amina on that I really fell in love with is this one, probably a bit off topic, but it deserves each and every mention, in my opinion:

UK Amazon has this set for £39.99 (take off VAT) -> good buy for us in Australia - comes to approx Aus $66 ($3.50 per disc) That price is from a marketplace seller, so no VAT discount ( at least not for me in Canada). @romualdo: do you ever get any VAT deduction on seller's offers? Would be cool, but none for me!

History lesson needed from yo' oldsters Grand Parade du Jazz, Nice, July 14, 1978 part 1: "A Night in Tunisia" Dizzy Gillespie (t, mouthharp), Stan Getz & Barney Wilen (ts), Rodney Jones (g), Mike Richmond (b), Mickey Roker, Billy Hart (d, perc) part 2: Rain Improvisation Dizzy & Barney part 3: "Ceciliana" (that's what Dizzy says) into "Love for Sale" Dizzy (solo) + short bit by Barney, band joining: Hank Jones (p), Milt Hinton (b), J.C. Heard (d) the info from Crownpropeller also gives Andy Laverne (p), for the first group, but I don't hear any piano ... I got a part of this (just the short "Tunisia", in a trade years ago, and there got the line-up as: Dizzy, Getz, Barney, Jones, no bass player, Jeff Brillinger on drums and Lawrence Julian on bongos (which again is wrong, that's congas on the stage there, of course). Anyone can clear this? The crownpropeller entry, as well as a video of another short tune from Nice 1978 can be found here: http://crownpropeller.wordpress.com/tag/barney-wilen/ (edit: can't be Brillinger of course, unless he was doing a minstrel ...)

Just finishing my fist sping of this ... very enjoyable! But it being a CDR ain't that cool ... seems regular practice with Acrobat (also seems they're being defended here regularly, but they still look fishy to me, at least as far as jazz goes).

That's a good price .... in fact the final two albums aren't that good, I think (some synth stuff, too, be warned), while the middle one is good rather than very good (the first two are mighty fine though ... and so's the Calig from the same time period).

Happy Birthday, Rod!

I forgot to mention, that "JASRAC" (or whatever that's supposed to mean) logo is there, too - btoh on the disc as well as on dhe OBI. No "Made in Europe" on the OBI of that Mingus disc, btw (unless of course in Japanes, which I can't read).

Why should they be fakes? Even if they'd be European pressings, I wouldn't care ... or are you saying they're counterfeits/bootlegs/illegal copies? The disc has the Rhino logo, WPCR-27256, Made in Japan. Inner ring gives that same WPCR number as well as an IFPI number (IFPI 456E at the very center in the clear part, IFPI L 275 at the outher end of the inner ring, on silver).

amazon.fr has them for around 7 € ... I was rather astonished, too - got me that last Mingus one (Something Like a Bird), and have the Vitous (Infinite Search) and John Lewis' "Jazz Abstractions" on the way (which I only know partially from the Ornette Atlantic box, so far).

Same here! There were four volumes of his "Integrale" and they almost run up to where this new box picks up (one album is missing in between, alas (Concerto della Resistenza), but this new box is a perfect addition to my Gaslini collection! It overlaps in time with his Soul Notes, of which the Monk might be the most amazing (maybe that's his towering achievement, really ... next to "Nuovi Sentimenti", which is more of a group effort). That would be cool. It does seem like Cam Jazz are branching out in to other Italian record labels. Not sure they do ... DDQ have been part of the Soul Note/Black Saint enterprise for a while and that's what CAM took over ... (not sure if DDQ were a sister label to BS/SN from the git go though). But obviously it would be the shiznits if they did do some Horo material! But as far as Lacy goes, they should do the larger groups to comliment the solos/duos/trios set, anway!
