I was supposed to be taking a break from ordering. But seeing as I already had a text file full of recommendations about this series from a past thread, I had to pick up a few.

Don Byas - En Ce Temps-la

Don Byas - Laura

Kenny Clarke - Plays Andre Hodeir

Sonny Criss - Mr. Blues Pour Flirter

Andre Hodeir - Jazz & Jazz

Bobby Jaspar - Modern Jazz au Club Saint Germain

Django Reinhardt - Nuits De St. Germain Pres

Lucky Thompon - Modern Jazz Group

Jazz Et Cinema Vol. 1

Twice before I have ordered the Django listed above only to have it cancelled, but this time it's shipping!

I only own half a dozen as I've had a hard time finding them in stock and at a nice price. The ones I have include the Blakey, Getz, Wilen's Jazz Sur Seine, Lester Young and 2 other Django's.

It was tough not order more but I've been a bit out of control of late. But I'm going to try not to buy anything until next year. Ugh, that's 12 days, I'm already starting to feel itchy. ;)

One Jazz in Paris CD that is always overlooked is volume 54 'Clarinettes a Saint-Germain-des-Pres'.

It features the playing of Hubert Rostaing (with Martial Solal on piano) and Maurice Meunier (with Raymond Fol or Rene urtreger). Two very underrated clarinettists who both were good enough to play with Django Reinhardt in the post-1940 Quintette du Hot Club de France.

Worth looking for!

kh1958 — minus the Byrds and Jazz et Cinema 2, that was my order from Dusty Groove about two years ago ... but not for those prices! The Lucky Thompson Modern Jazz Group might just be my very favorite of the bunch. (Of course, the Byas discs always leave me :wub: .)

Guy, that Clarinettes a Saint-Germain-des-Pres is a good one. I haven't spun it in quite some time, though. Time to get it out again. I guess tomorrow will be Paris in Oregon.

I ordered these. I have the Jaspar on an earlier Emarcy cd, and wanted to hear the JIP. I think that after these I have all the titles except maybe the fourth Cinema one and the Grapellis and Oscar Petersons. . . which I don't feel driven to pick up. . . .

I just received:

Bill Coleman: From boogie to funk

Lester Young: Le dernier message de Lester Young

Donald Byrd Quintet: Parisian thoroughfare

Donald Byrd: Byrd in Paris

Art Blakey: 1958 Paris Olympia

I didn't stray too far from what I know. But this small taste of the series may change that. I hope the price...and their stock holds until after the holidays. :wub:

Sheeesh, I have no willpower. After seeing news about some of the Blue Note cutouts, I added just a wafer thin portion of Jazz in Paris selections to my order. This is 2 days after placing an order of just Jazz in Paris selections.

I added Brownie's suggested overlooked gem - Clarinettes A Saint Germain Des Pres, and the Lucky Thompson With Dave Pochonet. Oh my, and one more, Bernard Peiffer's La Vie En Rose.

OK, that's it for the year! :lol:

expand your horizons and order the Hodeir Jazz et Jazz disk. Much cool stuff on that disk. Jazz of wide open horizons indeed.

Then again, you don't really want to trust me and my taste. :rsly:

Oh I trust your tastes. It's just that I trust my wife's ability to hit me over the head when she sees the credit card bill more. :g

Seriously, the Hodeir was in my cart, but it didn't make the cut. Maybe next time... ;)

if nothing else, that Raymond Fol - Quatre Saisons disk is a darn funny one.

I like it. Much better than the same old stale old.

I ordered this, but I think that I used to have this album on a Phillips LP ... and the featured artist was Johnny Griffin ... is this the same one?

Yes, this is a re-issue of Philips 70306. Johnny Griffin is on the album. Not sure if he really is the featured artist or that was just the marketing of the time. Other notable musicians are Roger Guerin on trumpet, Raymond Guy on flute, Jimmy Woode on double bass and Art Taylor on drums. (I skipped about 15 other names.)

Darn, just heard that the Byas and Peiffer are sold out and won't be shipping. Anyone know if DG will be getting any more of these in (I know they say they will, but...).

Double darn, reading more of this thread has me already considering a second order! ;)

I've received my order and the Fol is a bit unusual but quite enjoyable. I am also listening to Guy Lafitte's Blue and Sentimental. He's very much a Hawk disciple but it's a great album nonetheless. Of note is Geo Daly on vibes. He's very good. Never heard him before.
