Just found at the local shop the Angel box set of Schnabel playing Beethoven's sonatas, the booklet was missing, but the records were ultra mint and the price excellent, so I had to buy it. :cool:

Now I am listening to them. The transfert is good, the music is just astounding. People were right, Schanbel is the Thing.

I agree. I've had that box since 1968. If you can find the book (it's a great 52 page "tome") you will be happy. I now listen to the music on cd (for convenience) but still pull out the book for reference.

'The Fabulous Fats Navarro Vol 2' (BN Lexington DG)

:tup:tup:tup

I was astonished listening to this pressing just how good it was acoustically. Recorded in 1948 (or was it '49?) but you would never know it. Those Tadd Dameron sides are amazing !

Would that be these recordings? http://www.amazon.co.uk/gp/product/B000002S29/

Allan Jaffe - Soundscape - (Kromel)

I found a copy of this in a local shop years ago. Cover is badly water damaged but the disc is fine. I didn't enjoy it quite as much as I'd hoped considering the line up. Maybe time for a replay?

It's not earth-shattering but it is good.
