Hi you all,

Today is my 40th birthday and I'm spending the evening with Sonny Rollins, my favorite player of them all. The record, right now, is "Don´t Stop the Carnival", an amazing live album from 1978.

Soon I will have a party. I plan to start it with "Potato Head Blues" and then go on from that, through the story of jazz.

Although I've pretty much decided on the the records to play I´m open to suggestions.

Something that HAS to be included?

Best regards,

Jóhannes Jónsson, Reykjavík, Iceland

P.S. I just registered here and this is my first post. This seems to be a fine forum.

jeffcrom, paul secor, Chuck Nessa, sidewinder and clifford_thornton,

Thank you very much for your birthday greetings to me. I will certainly play both Jelly Roll Morton and Ornette Coleman at my party.

Of Ornette´s records I have "The Shape of Jazz to Come". I have a little more of Jelly Roll.

Spinning right now: The Gerry Mulligan Quartet - Paris Jazz Fair 1954, Salle Pleyel Concert

Best wishes to you all,

Jóhannes Jónsson
