What vinyl are you spinning right now??

[clifford_thornton]

enjoying my first listen to a nice pristine new addition to the collection,

[JSngry]

I don't know what "enhanced for stereo" here means, since it usually means "we made it sound godawful". They didn't,

All tenor. Sweet date. Charles Davis is one of those players who's not particularly "profound" by conventional "critical" standards, but he's just so damn....personal in everything he plays that I end up saying OH WELL!!! about all that. Personal is profound in my book, so bring it on, some Charles Davis.

And you - yeah, you - if you think you might even halfway like this record and don't already have it, go get it. Shouldn't be too hard to find.

Still sealed bitches, STILL SEALED!!!! And only fonineynine!

Dexter Gordon - Biting The Apple (Inner City).

Like the Art Tatum Pablo LP that I played the other night, this is one where the CD kills the LP. I don't know if the Steeplechase LP is better, but this one isn't that great.

Sun Ra - The Soul Vibrations of Man (El Saturn). Live at the Jazz Showcase in Chicago, November, 1977. I'll bet that Larry, John L. or Chuck was there.

My pressing is in plain black sleeve, but here's the label.

Edited to correct a slip of the brain regarding the venue.

Classic Ra!

Now spinning:

Tchicai/Geerken/Moye - West Africa Tour - (Sagittarius A-Star)

Great 4LP box, and considering these recordings were made on a Sony Walkman, they sound pretty good.

[sidewinder]

Horace Silver 'The Jody Grind' (BN Liberty mono gatefold)

[brownie]

Billy Eckstine 'Mr. B. With a Beat' (MGM/Japan)

[The Magnificent Goldberg]

Well, I sprang for it! Never seen this one before. I agree with you about CHarles Davis. $4-99 PLUS $9-16 postage - effin liberty, with no RVG in dead wax.

Thanks Jim.

[paul secor]

Little Walter, Baby Face Leroy, Muddy Waters, J.B. Lenoir, Sunnyland Slim: Down Home Chicago Blues (P-Vine Japan)

[jeffcrom]

Gene Ammons - The Twister (Prestige blue label mono). Apparently the rarest of the several covers under which this excellent blowing session (AKA Jammin' in Hi-Fi with Gene Ammons) was issued.

I've had it since the early 1960s. It has your 8 tracks, plus 4 less impressive tracks from a later session: "Embraceable You", "My Heart Stood Still", "You'd Be So Nice To Come Home To" and "Burt Covers Bud".

[Kevin Bresnahan]

Gene Ammons & Dexter Gordon - The Chase (Purple lable Van Gelder). As I put it on the turntable, I realized that I had never picked up the CD of this.

Dance with Kid Ory or Just Listen (Verve)

[clifford_thornton]

Eddie Gale - This is Hot! - (Sagittarius A-Star)

2002 performance at Yoshi's with Prince Lasha and John Gruntfest, pretty solid.

[jeffcrom]

The World of Duke Ellington, Volume 3 (Columbia). I love these three double-LP sets, which cover Ellington's late-40's/early 50's Columbia recordings better than just about anywhere else. My copies are all in fake stereo, but they don't sound bad with a mono cartridge - just a little too reverb-y.
