Ornette Coleman "The Shape of Jazz to Come" 2010 Rhino pressing. Cut from the original analog masters by Bernie Grundman (BG in the dead wax). The sound is PHENOMENAL, it's just PERFECT. I've never been more impressed by a modern pressing. This thing is a blessing; I can't stop playing it!

My wife's out of town, and that often means a 45 RPM night. I didn't mind getting up every three minutes to change the record - as I said here before, I need the exercise. And I'll probably do it again tomorrow night, since I didn't get to any of my hardcore blues 45s. I won't otherwise try to categorize these, but everything from Willie West on is from New Orleans; all of that is produced by Allen Toussaint and features him on piano except for the last one - a game-changing New Orleans single with Milton Batiste on trumpet and Ellis Marsalis on piano.

The Bop Session with Dizzy Gillespie, Sonny Stitt, John Lewis, Percy Heath, Max Roach & Hank Jones (Sonet SNTF 692). This is a variable date with some tracks sounding like fresh interpretations of old war horses and others sounding like tired old war horses.

Lovely ! I really like that particular King series. Too bad I didn't pick them up when they were £7-8 a throw (well, it was over 30 years ago and that was a small fortune back then.. ;) )

As far as I can remember this album was 30 years ago a " bonus album " if had to had a certain amount of OBI`s and you got this as a bonus album for free.

Around 1980 Nils Winther and his wife Mihoko were among the guests at our apartment and this session came up in discussion. Nils insisted Blakey was the drummer and I said it was Max. He challenged me to a bet and I said I would bet one of each record in my catalog against one of each in the SteepleChase catalog. He took the bet and after losing complained about the comparative size of our holdings. Mihoko made him live up the his offer and I soon had lots of SteepleChase records in house.

I've been looking for an affordable copy of this for a few years now. I've been getting by with the CD in meantime.

Sold the lp when the cd was released but I still have BN 45-1674 - K. B. Blues backed with D. B. Blues. Anyone want to make an offer?

Don't believe I'da bet against Nessa.

Curtis Fuller - Sliding Easy (United Artists). I didn't know that this album existed until this afternoon, when I found a nice promo copy. (No, my copy is not signed by Mr. Fuller, like the one in the picture.)

A record I've loved since the day it was issued.

Great lp. I saw them around '75. DeJohnette, Abercrombie and Holland, but I'm not sure if it was Bowie on Trumpet or not. Here's my scanned ticket. The show ended with Abercrombie's "Timeless". An incredible finale. It's hard to believe it was only three dollars.

That's pretty cool! 1975 is a little early for Lester to be in the band - Alex Foster on tenor, maybe?
