Thelonious Monk: Live in Paris Part 1 (BYG Japan)

[sidewinder]

Lucky Thompson 'Dancing Sunbeam' (ABC Impulse 2LP). The bass is so prominent that it sent my speaker drive units into oscillation !

tremendous stuff ....

Jimmy Raney -----Two Jims and a Zoot -------(Fontana ) mono 

[jeffcrom]

Daddy-O Presents MJT + 3 (Argo). I had been looking for a decent, affordable copy of this for some time, since it's the only MJT + 3 album with Richard Abrams (not yet Muhal) in the piano chair. He also wrote over half the tunes.

Steve Lacy - The Kiss (Lunatic). A solo recital from Hiroshima, 1986. Stunning.

Grant Green 'Solid' (King BN)

[sidewinder]

Larry Young 'Contrasts' (BN Liberty blue/white)

[paul secor]

Lester Young: Pres (Verve Japan)

[Clunky]

Art Blakey's Jazz messengers with  Thelonious Monk -----(London) UK mono edition. Great sound and balance !!!

[paul secor]

Clark Terry: Serenade to a Bus Seat (Riverside Japan)

When I first saw this title years ago, I thought it was a reference to Rosa Parks and the Montgomery bus boycott. According to the liner notes, it's not. But thinking back to the notes for Sonny's Freedom Suite, who knows.

Now spinning the stereo version - Liberty (blue/white)

sounding significantly better than the CD which IIRC was a vinyl dub.

[sidewinder]

Yep, I think the story on that one was that master tapes are missing in action..

Tommy Flanagan Plays the Music of Harold Arlen (Trio)

I wish that Tommy Flanagan had recorded this as a solo LP. I find George Mraz's playing at best annoying, and at worst obnoxious.
