Man, that's KILLER haul you got there! The Ammons of course are stellar and the Newman's are also tops. And Fountainbleau is of course a classic. Hell they're ALL great.

Don't know about the Draper though.... :cool:

I'll be listening a lot to those Gene Ammons studio jam sessions in the next weeks

(got all the other ones already, just never really found the time to really listen to them). :)

Not so sure about that one either, but I wanted to have all the Prestige material that Webster

Young played on. I just discovered him through Jackie McLean's Prestige discs and this

one features them both (and Mal Waldron, too), so I guess it can't be too bad. :crazy:

I discovered the OJC stuff early (thankfully). I got that Coltrane box and studied the thing for about a month. That set me off on an immediate Mal Waldron kick, I fell in love with his "house arrangements". Anyway, those Prestige sessions of the 50's can be a fun little side journey to take.

Just added is one of THE GREAT Dexter Gordon albums:

11061843_155_155.jpeg

I have this on vinyl as Live At The Amsterdam Paradiso. 1967. Acceptible sound quality, tho the piano is really funky (I think the liner notes mention it was missing a couple of keys!). The pianist is Han Bennink. This is prime, supreme Dexter, playing with a real edge and high energy, just ripping into the music. Don't miss it.

I saw that and thought that the clips sounded pretty good, so I put it in the Save for Later file. Never saw it before.

BTW......Bennink plays drums.

You are correct; serves me right for working off memory. Cees Slinger on piano (thanks, AMG!). Also, recording date is 2/5/69, not 1967.

The Donnas Turn 21

RRRrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrockin' !! :excited:

[i like The Donnas, actually]

I can't wait to hear this. "Spend The Night" is an amazing album, and interesting lyrically; my wife and I have spent some time discussing the songs. And they do rock out; the drummer and guitarist are very impressive.

eMusic just has so much! Everytime I look, I'm surprised. This time out, I found not just all The Donnas indie releases, but Dar Williams, Nick Lowe, and all of Moondog's European releases. Also, I just looked at Fantasy's website, and they seem to have acquired Telarc - guess all of their stuff will show up on eMusic soon. And Charlie Hunter's next album is on Fantasy. Lotsa good stuff to look forward to.
