Great story, Johnny E! I only have the Blue Note album of Sheila's so far, but even with only that, I easily rank her as one of my favourite singers. That Cameron Brown disc looks cool! Would like to know more about it, if anyone has it! ubu

Hey folks! Buy that Fifities Mobley Mosaic to be able to vote here! I mean, when the set came out, I was like: why the hell do they a fifties and not a sixties set. Then I bought it nevertheless, and I rate that stuff as high as I do what Mobley recorded in the sixties. Big surprise it was for me, but a very very pleasant one! ubu

I'm looking for this one, too. I think it came out in 1987! That's at least five average CD-life-times... I found that year on some website when googling for the set a while ago. ubu

The photos above take hours to load. So here they are again:

Your generosity is outstanding! Seriously now: I would welcome more participation in our discussion! No need to follow the whole thing, just jump in right here if you feel like! ubu

about "GERU": http://dragonjazz.narod.ru/rubolino_geru.html: Two photos from that same site: Kowald and Solovyov, Moscow, 1991 Kostikov, Rauschtenberger, Solovyov, Kowald (from left), Moscow, 1991 ubu

Hey, my version of the Funny Rat thread is only 23 pages long! This might be Jim Dye's work... That depends on your board settings. I use default (I never adjusted anything but the time), and it's on page 62 right now. ubu

Makes me wonder what you were posting The mystery deepens... Some "red alert! red alert" welcome to Jim Dye, I think it was. No problem, Chaney, I was just so tired today in the morning when I first logged in that I really thought I had some hallucinations maybe... Jim Dye, and everybody else, of course, is highly welcome to jump into the rat at any time of any day. Time for me soon to spin the rat-dried dog again, a distant relative of the funny rat. Who here has that one? ubu

Rooster, I'd say go for it! Give it a try - might be a great opportunity! ubu

Did I have some hallucinations or was there an additional post last night, bringing this thread to page 62? Some "red alert" thing? Were has it gone? Upon Д.Д.'s insistence, I repeat here what I wrote him in a PM about the two CDs he sent me after returning from his trip to Russia: Now here's Д.Д.'s reply: Now - one more thing: the contrasts between serious european and cartoonish, cinematic (that's a good description!) on "Closed Mountains" is a very cool thing! Would you mind telling us a bit more about your first learning about jazz? ubu

Soul Station. Yet I love all of them, but Soul Station has somehow always stood out. And ît was among my very first Mobley. ubu

This is a hard one! I love all of the Blue Notes! The one with Mogie, the one with Farmer, and then there's the "All Stars" with Milt Jackson... And the one with Shafi Hadi, also the Quartet 10" album is great! ubu

I once gave my TKM away, to a person who was kind enough to give me several rare LPs. No problem with that, but I never gave one away since. On the other hand, I would not know anybody who would know to ask. As far as other discs are concerned, there are two or three persons that more or less constantly have a few of my things, but I'm sure about them not trying to cheat on me. And I get discs from them, too, even LPs. ubu

Yeah, I'd love that, too! They at least should give us all with Griffin! ubu

Have listened to this one twice, recently, and I do like it pretty well: I think it starts growing to me! ubu

YEAH!! I got hold of a copy of that 4CD 32jazz release which includes it. I think I might love the Atlantic studio stuff better in its entirety than the albums one by one. But then that's the way I got them, and I listened to all of them at virtually the same time, so I tend to mix them etc. There's fabulous music on each one of them, in my opinion. ubu

I hope to join in on the discussion later this week. Had no chance to listen yet. Only, I really don't know if it is considered sane to continue the discussion with all of you anally retentive persons... ubu B)

A reissue series including "Upon Reflection" has been discussed here. I would not know where to order it, though. Probably Amazon Germany or France. I myself have the Gitanes edition. ubu

Classic Quartet Atlantic Village Vanguard Live in Japan Major Works (that does maybe not qualify as a "box"?) and of course Miles/Trane not the Prestige, as I missed it in the crazy zweitausendeins sale, and have most of it on OJCCDs. ubu

...which as generalized a statement as Miles only playing slow ones. ubu

Love for sale?? is it the cd or the lp. I love this disk. If it is the cd, can you burn me a copy??? Sure, send me a PM! ubu

All the Mc's (McLean takes pretty much space here, for instance), lots of Mulligan, too! And Wynton... ubu

Yes, I have it. A good one! Seems it's OOP, though (Enja has a real shitty, almost non-existing back-list!) I love Booker! Really love him. All the sideman dates, well almost all, particularly though the Mingus ones (Wonderland, Ah Um, Blues & Roots..., At Antibes) were the first place I got to hear him. Then I picked up the Freedom and Space books, later the Blues Book - that's till now all of the Prestige stuff I have. The BN and Pacific albums are great. "Booker'n'Brass" is one I like pretty well, too. Has not yet been mentioned, I think. Also I'm fond of his one Savoy date (the Parlan crew with Richard Williams added), his Candid album (with Horace Parlan under the ridiculous nom-de-plume "Felix Krull"), and his Bethlehem album (which has Tommy Turrentine & Zoot Sims along with Booker). ubu
