What vinyl are you spinning right now??

[Cactus Bob]

Jimi Hendrix ~ Rainbow Bridge

Reprise

[jeffcrom]

Alton Purnell - Funky Piano New Orleans Style (Warner Bros. mono). I've never been able to figure out what this 1958 album was supposed to be - jazz, pop, R & B? But at some point I stopped caring - it's just a blast. Plas Johnson, Red Callender, and fellow New Orleanian Earl Palmer help Alton do whatever it is he's doing.

[The Magnificent Goldberg]

Never came across that Alton Purnell album. Though, if I had, unless Plas J's name is on the sleeve, I'd have passed it by until I heard him with George Lewis...

This morning

Cover could have been a Pablo but Page wasn't copying.

Don Rendell/Ian Carr quintet "change is"

Steve Lacy "the wire"

Nice rare ones those...

[Homefromtheforest]

Musically great too

[sidewinder]

'Change Is' is a corker. The presence of Guy Warren, with encouragement of ian Carr, is a bit of an anomaly though - my understanding is that Don Rendell wasn't entirely happy with it. You can hear the genesis of the group's break up in this session.

[Homefromtheforest]

I think I read that somewhere myself..Ian Carr went on to make some great Nucleus records(my favorite is Belladonna) and Don Rendell's "space walk" is a great later session too. But you got to love all those rendell/Carr albums...sublime stuff!

[sidewinder]

I hear that Lansdowne Studios (or what was Lansdowne Studios before they gutted it to make a banker pad ) is back on the market for £12M. The old basement studio area is now a fancy kitchen/diner. Anyone fancy clubbing together to put a sneaky offer in?

Yeah, 'Belladonna' is great. I have the Vertigo LP in the racks somewhere..

Wild Bill Davidson ~ Lady of the Evening

Jazzology

[paul secor]

WSQ: Live in Zurich (Black Saint)

[jeffcrom]

Lee Collins - In the 30's: I Can Dish It - Can You Take It? (Collectors Items). The great New Orleans trumpeter recorded nothing under his own name in the 1930s and 40s, only as an accompanist. But he sounds fabulous on these sides by Lil Hardaway, Richard M. Jones, Blue Scott, Lil Johnson, Victoria Spivey, and The Yas Yas Girl.

The Many Faces of Art Farmer (Scepter mono)

[colinmce]

Never seen that one. Is that a rerelease of a better known session?
