Dickey Myers - Dickey's Mood (Quadrangle). A 1979 album by an obscure, but talented tenor saxophonist, produced by one Allen Lowe, who wrote four of the tunes. The great Joe Albany is on piano.

oi, weird memories; brilliant but hopelessly self destructive saxophonist; great guy, but hooked up with a truly evil woman who burned a lot of bridges (both are now dead). I also have a very interesting tape of him playing duos with Joe Albany; but that LP got him an offer from George Wein, yes, George Wein, and Dickey was too afraid to respond,

Rega RS3 loudspeakers. I'm pretty happy so far (goes well with Rega P3 turntable).

Archibald: The Complete New Orleans Sessions 1950-1952 (Krazy Kat)

There have been a lot of versions of Stagger Lee over the years, but I believe that Archibald's "Stack-A-Lee" was the first big hit, and Lloyd Price copped Archibald's lyrics for his even bigger hit. Though Lloyd Price did add that beautiful haiku-like:

The night was clear

and the moon was yellow

and the leaves came tumbling down

Very poetical, that bit that Lloyd added, and I can't read it without hearing the horns kick in after!

now for something a little more normal:

Benny Bailey - How Deep Can You Go? - (EMI Harvest, SWE)

extraordinary small group session from 74

Never even heard of it !

pretty obscure but nevertheless interesting session with swedish musicians from 1976 .....

Arza Anaiak - Txalaparta '75 Iraila - (Cramps, IT)

That's a funny little disc, but I like it. They also appear on one of the Area records ( "Maledetti" IIRC).

There's a much older 7" EP on a Spanish label, but that one's not in my collection.
