Recorded in '61, w/ G.Green, T. Flanagan, P. Chambers, and Art Taylor

This is one record where I find the CD sounds much better than the DMM LP. Great stuff too.

Oh - I love the album, but I haven't heard it on CD. Which edition are you talking about?

Haven't heard the cd, but this wouldn't surprise me. My vinyl issue sounds ok to me, but not remarkable. Good info to file away :)

Just finished:

Bill Evans and George Russell, Living Time (Columbia). More of a Russell album than an Evans one and with a pretty impressive orchestra--Tony Williams, Sam Rivers, Joe Henderson, etc. Wonder what the suits thought of this?

Noah Howard - Space Dimension - (Columbia, JP)

Hat tip to Homefromtheforest on this one - the sound blows away the shitty French pressing (Americas are usually okay; that one is pretty bad)

Cool! Glad you snagged a copy...it's definitely a far superior issue.

Very affordable too. I think I'll liberate my America pressing (even if it creates a numerical gap in the America section).

Jim Robinson (Smoky Mary). This fine 1976 album is Big Jim's last. I bought it in Preservation Hall last month. I was tickled to once again see vinyl for sale at the Hall (new and vintage); on my first visit (in 1990), I bought The December Band, Volume 2 and Kid Howard's Sam Morgan Revisited there, and felt like the records were as legendary as the venue itself.

And I know that those titles won't mean much to most folks here, but they're among the best New Orleans-style recordings of the 1960s.

Another one I snagged this weekend. 'Not entirely what I was expecting. Recorded in '68, released in '75, I believe on Black Lion. I dig Barney Kessel, but this one seemed to be recorded with an eye on trying to win over the masses, with a good bit of late '60's style pop and folkisms dispersed throughout, giving it a rather "dated" overall vibe. Not an essential Kessel album by any means, although I wouldn't call it bad, and it definitely has some inspired moments.
