Lon, what's the Prima/Manone like? What could you compare the music to?

I just started exploring the great Max Roach set - discs 1-3, with "Max" (Argo) in between the two "Plays Charlie Parker" dates, now planning to continue with the tuba band dates (incl. Riverside & Time albums), after the live set from Newport 1958! Booker Little is marvellous already on the first date (disc 3)!

Oh it's early jazz, New Orleans style. . . I don't know how to explain it otherwise. Has lots of ARMSTRONG in it in the trumpeting and singing. I really like it. I'm a big fan of Wingy, and I like this early Prima much more than any later Prima; there are sides with Pee Wee Russell in the band that are very good.

Sound is very good; maybe a tad bright, depends on your system.
