EMusic also has Quantic Presents The World's Rarest Funk 45s Vol 1 and Vol 2.

I'm torn on this. I bought Vol. 1 from DG and enjoyed it, but I paid a fair bit for a CD that is less than 40 minutes long. From that perspective the eMusic is a much better bargain. However, the liner notes are really informative and interesting, and you still aren't getting that from downloads (when are the labels going to catch up?). So I am leaning towards buying Vol. 2 from DG as well.

I did download an on-line exclusive of the Best of Jazzman (or some similar title).

Other recent downloads:

Gilles Peterson Digs America v. 1 and 2. (One track missing out of 30, which is annoying but not fatal)

The Gilles Peterson is still not a bad deal, with just one track gone.

Now that I have investigated more carefully, Jazzman is being kind of lame, putting up these Quantic albums but then leaving off 4-5 tracks! For Florida Funk, they left off 7 tracks. If you want people to buy your CDs, then keep them off eMusic; otherwise, put all the tracks up there. This totally lame strategy of giving people a big taste with downloads, but then expecting them to buy the full CD makes me less likely to buy the downloads and their CDs. Anyway, I did get Vol. 2 of World's Rarest Funk from DG, but that will probably be the last thing I buy on the Jazzman label while they follow this stupid strategy.

The Cecil is all of Hard Driving Jazz, better known in its recredited incarnation as Coltrane Time. Kenny Dorham tries to hold the reins on Cecil and Coltrane and it's um.. interesting. The bonus tracks are all of Jazz Advance, Cecil's debut as leader, with Steve Lacy on half the tracks. Both are good, but Love For Sale and the Candids are better.

Downloaded the Gil Coggins but haven't listened yet. Been revisiting Trane's Prestige dates.

There's a few VeeJays showed up (Chambers, Young Lions).

Also some interesting stuff I'm going to check out such as "Ugly Beauty Play the Music of Thelonious Monk," and Tom Olstad's "Changes for Mingus" and "Strayhornmonk". . .and the Dutch Radio Orchestra doing Ellington.

Oliver Nelson/Lem Winchester - Nocturne

How is it? I've been considering getting it for the past two or three months now and

always chose something else instead. But I guess someday I'll grab it as well as

those Lem Winchester albums I've been eyeing for so long now.

They just added some Uptown discs and it looks like Ayler is back as well. Digging the new Hamid Drake/Wm. Parker/Anders Gahnold album now.

And though not "new," I'm loving Charles Tyler's "Eastern Man Alone." Don't know how I missed it before. :tup

First post, howdy.

So far this month:

Frank Strozier Fantastic Frank Strozier

japancakes Loveless

Kenny Dorham Jazz Contrasts

Max Roach Deeds, Not Words

Booker Little and Booker Ervin Sounds Of The Inner City

Booker Little Out Front

Drake/Gahnold/Parker The Last Dances

Joe McPhee Nation Time

Archie Shepp & Mal Waldron Left Alone Revisited

Woody Shaw Blackstone Legacy

PS the Strozier has a slight bit of bad rip on the first track. Nothing to totally ruin it, but there's a really loud digital tick about 5 seconds from the end. Great album, otherwise.

And I'd LOVE some of the Uptown releases, except you lose out on the booklets.
