Freddie McCoy————Peas and Rice———-(Prestige) RVG 1967 

Joanne Brackeen on the piano or organ on all tracks bar one. Pleasant album with some variety and just enough grease.

Prince Lawsha - Firebirds Live At The Monterey Jazz Festival, volume III [Birdseye]

Buster Williams!

That looks enticing. I have volume 2 from that series -- the LP with Hutcherson -- but not vols 1 or 3. 

I know that Buster plays beautifully on Firebirds.  He's such a monster. :tup

That volume 3 has Bobby Hutcherson on too.

I was confused.  I only have vol. 1.  This one:

I didn't realize that Hutch was on vol. 3.   

I'll need to get it then! ;) 

I'm now playing this one to complete the afternoon's Lawsha listen (unless I get to the studio Firebirds next)

I've been confused by the three volumes for years - different line ups, different festivals, partial CD reissues but I got there in the end

If you like volume 1 you'll have no worries with volume 3, unless short LPs worry you. It clocks in at just over 31 minutes but 31 terrific minutes - quality not quantity

Good deal. Thanks. I'm with you: Short duration isn't a problem if the music is wonderful.

The only problem might be FINDING volume 3.  There's one listed on Discogs now -- but it's priced at $45.58.  Yikes! :o

Yeah, took me a while to find one that I could justify paying for

Ben Allison, Quiet Revolution (Newvelle)

Are you a subscriber to Newvelle or were you able to pick this up by itself somewhere? I may have to buy a couple of subs for this label. Sucks but I've waited long enough for the individual titles to come out and nothing yet. They appear to be sticking to their business model... I doubt it'll work so I might as well grab the records while they're still afloat.

I'm not  a subscriber; I bought this LP from Ben Allison at an engagement at Smoke. It is a nice package and pressing.
