The Mankunku has been reissued recently!

I know it's been reissued by Jazzman Gerald last year, but there seems to be another 2017 reissue on the Gallo label (South Africa).

Discogs now lists six (!) different vinyl editions of this album. Which one do you have?

Another recent Discogs purchase (with much better cover, by the way). Apparently issued with a book about jazz improvisation, and unfortunately side 2 is a play-along record, same tracks as side 1 but only with the rhythm section. But side 1 certainly swings, and the leader got some heavy hitters to play: Slide Hampton, Wilton Gaynair and Carmell Jones.

Reminds me, who was the member who was a completist on Carmell Jones? I don't think he's still here but I wonder if he has this one.

I have the UK Jazzman record.  Great pressing, on par with the music played!

This evening:

Ella Fitzgerald Sing the Duke Ellington Song Book LPs 1 & 2 (Verve/Speakers Corner)

I'm not a big Ella fan, but the songs and the accompaniments work for me, and Ella sounds good at times.

From Kai Winding to Albert Mangelsdorff:

A very informative essay about Mangelsdorff's influence on German and European jazz was published recently by Bill Shoemaker:

A great piece of research and highly recommended reading.

Monk in Tokyo (1963) on Speakers Corner (2016). Unlike the recent Les Liaisons Dangereuses release, this one did not get the attention it deserves.

Also worth mentioning is the sound quality, the best sounding Monk records I have. Just great.
