  1. Any Hill Blue Note. I start with the out-the-gate four albums released in 1964? (weren't Wolff and Lion just as excited about Hill at the time?) Some dates grow on you, but others take some time, but I'm so glad to have them all. BTW, I like Andrew!!! Summary, at BN alone, wow! That BN allowed him to record so much music, and then we get Passing Ships as a gift? And then some? Priceless.
  2. I'm quoting myself. Right now, I don't really care, I'm buying this set; for God's sake (telling myself) it's effing Joe, McCoy, Grimes, & DeJohnette. Sold.
  3. So glad to have picked up the Sonny Rollins original albums RCA box set, and one of my favs (What's New, is right behind it) from his RCA period. Most interesting period in Sonny's career, in my opinion. We Three. Roy Haynes, Phineas Newborn, Paul Chambers. New Jazz. Earlier, Coleman Hawkins, Desafinado, Impulse!
  4. They made sense.
  5. So, listening to the bass that bad/unlistenable then? One end of the spectrum says yes, other says no??
  6. In the mode for Joe continues. In 'n' Out.
  7. Excited about this record set, that's what I needed to hear, sold!
  8. On the fence now. Is the bass/no bass that bad? Because I like bass, but none, nor too much can change my mind on this release. Love the cover BN chose though.
  9. "Our Thing" is spinning right now.
  10. Woah. Sleeve is sweet. Blues Walk-Lou Donaldson
  11. Sammich. When Lou was in the groove, it was total boogaloo. Keeps me entertained. RIP.
  12. That's nearly a century of playing drums from Charlie Parker to Andrew Hill and beyond. What a life!
  13. Founded Quest Records, whose roster included Sonny Simmons and New Order. Wow. RIP.

    Jackie McLean

    Speaking of great runs, Joe Henderson's tenure at BN is an absolute treat. Think Dorham and Henderson had a great thing going on there.
  15. I love that album cover! Don't have a record player though. Hence, waiting for the thrill of someone dumping one at a second-hand store (which is mostly where I found the lp covers on my walls).
  16. Really, some pretty amazing records there. The Joe McPhee is a standout for me. Have it on cd, but if I came across the lp, that'd be on my wall the moment I got home.
  17. Second to none, the coolest mancave ever.
  18. One more wall: Forgot about this wall:
  19. Some more.... More still:
  20. Haven't been posting here in awhile (largely lurking) but I wanted to share what vinyl wall art I have on the wall: Some more.
  21. Just ordered, really looking forward to this set.
  22. Black Unity! Long live Pharoah!
  23. I have one of those OJC limited editions, but its packed away. I was happy to see it (long out of print) and happy to have it. He's no Jackie, but I'm not arguing he is
  24. Man, he just came up in my thoughts, miss this dude, big time.
  25. Wow, what a loss, RIP
