The chandelier would not survive Now listening to (after the record was mentioned in a thread earlier today): Debut Records 'Autobiography in Jazz' (Debut, mono) A not very good copy that still carries a $1,98 price tag from the Princeton Record Exchange that remains unremovable in contrast with the Debut labels that unglued in typical Debut fashion! Mingus and Roach should have purchased their glue from the PRE stock! The album was also priced $1,98 (Fed. Tax Included) when it came out!

Chuck Nessa Posted July 9, 2011 Report Share Posted July 9, 2011 (edited) The album was also priced $1,98 (Fed. Tax Included) when it came out! Around 1962 a federal tax was cancelled and all the .98 prices dropped to .79 for lps. Edited July 9, 2011 by Chuck Nessa Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

jeffcrom Posted July 9, 2011 Report Share Posted July 9, 2011 (edited) Last night and this morning: Teddy Wilson - On Tour (Charlie Parker). Lo-fi tapes, great playing. Muggsy Spanier and His Orchestra (Jazum). Even lower-fi - broadcasts recorded by a microphone held in front of an AM radio speaker in 1953. Edit: paranoid, smart-ass comment removed.

Kevin Bresnahan Posted July 9, 2011 Report Share Posted July 9, 2011 Now spinning Tony Kinsey's "An Evening With Tony Kinsey "Mr. Percussion"". Some great Tubby Hayes on tenor & flute here. If you're interested in a new copy of this LP, be forewarned that it is a limited edition of 500 pressings. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

jeffcrom Posted July 10, 2011 Report Share Posted July 10, 2011 One of my best friends described me as "a moody fuck," and I'm in a mood tonight. Some blues LPs are helping: Tabby Thomas - King of Swamp Blues (Maison de Soul) Johnny Littlejohn - So-Called Friends (Rooster Blues) Robert Pete Williams - Louisiana Blues (Takoma) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jeffcrom Posted July 10, 2011 Report Share Posted July 10, 2011 Before finally going to bed, one more single by each of the above blues guys: Robert Pete Williams - Goodbye Slim Harpo/Viet Nam Blues (Ahura Mazda) Johnny Littlejohn - Kitty O/Johnny's Jive (Margaret) Tabby Thomas - How Many More Years/Goin' to New Orleans (Maison de Soul) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
A Lark Ascending Posted July 10, 2011 Report Share Posted July 10, 2011 (edited) Lol Coxhill: DIVERSE. Ogun LP. Any other fans of Lol? I like Lol. Once saw him play a solo concert in a student cafeteria filled with dozens of candles. I think there were about six of us in the audience. Another time with a band playing straight bebop (much better attended!). One of the least commercial musicians I've come across. Frequrntly just stops mid performance because he's run out of ideas or got bored and just starts something else. Missed this tour though: http://www.theshed.co.uk/guardian-skip This is a great survey of his music from 1954-99: Edited July 10, 2011 by A Lark Ascending Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jeffcrom Posted July 10, 2011 Report Share Posted July 10, 2011 Okay, apparently I wasn't quite ready to go to bed, since I played three more blues 45s: Taildragger: So Ezee/My Head is Bald (Leric) Baby Tate - So What You Done Done/Late In the Evening (Trix) - with the great Peg Leg Sam on harp on side one. Hop Wilson - Broke & Hungry/Always Be In Love With You (Goldband) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

sidewinder Posted July 10, 2011 Report Share Posted July 10, 2011 (edited) Missed this tour though: I remember when the skip tour 'hit' Malton in N. Yorks, not far from relatives of mine. Would that be one of the Derwent reservoirs in the background of that photo? Cool. Saw Lol at 'Jazz Britannia' - where like Andy Sheppard he did some great 'interaction' with the blackbirds singing in the Conservatory ! Just about to spin Tubby Hayes 'After Lights Out..' (Japanese Tempo, mono). new Sawano reissue. Edited July 10, 2011 by sidewinder Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

paul secor Posted July 10, 2011 Report Share Posted July 10, 2011 Before finally going to bed, one more single by each of the above blues guys: Robert Pete Williams - Goodbye Slim Harpo/Viet Nam Blues (Ahura Mazda) Johnny Littlejohn - Kitty O/Johnny's Jive (Margaret) Tabby Thomas - How Many More Years/Goin' to New Orleans (Maison de Soul) Have the Robert Pete Williams and may still have the John Littlejohn - there's a box of 45's waiting to be cleaned sitting in my garage. Didn't think that anyone else here would have or even know about those. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I suspect everyone else was having a really good time bopping to The Sweet and Mud in another building. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
