A clean copy of: Jim Pepper "Pepper's Pow Wow" I have a workable copy, just need a NM copy! Test "Ahead" Picture Disc. I have the black vinyl edition. (what a nerd I am!) Phil Urso: the LP on Regent, this is not that great (Danny Banks's 'everybody skate backwards' organ is really uninspiring) however, I'm an Urso completist (I have known the man for 15+ years).

brownie Posted January 27, 2007 Report Posted January 27, 2007 Some I have constantly missed (or could not afford): Ruby Braff 'Around the World' (UA) Arnett Cobb 'Ballads' (Moodsville) Red Mitchell 'Rejoice' (PacificJazz) Randy Weston/Lem Winchester 'New Faces at Newport' (MetroJazz) Quote
sidewinder Posted January 27, 2007 Report Posted January 27, 2007 Don Rendell/Ian Carr 'Dusk Fire' has always eluded me (at a sensible price) as has Yusef Lateef 'Before Dawn' (Verve, although I'm pretty happy with the Verve Elite CD). Quote

michel1969 Posted January 27, 2007 Author Report Posted January 27, 2007 - - - thad jones, after hours, outbid several times I don't no if it will bring some consolation, but IMO the best of this record is its cover. Its a nice session, but NOT that "New York mood" session we are dreaming about when looking the cover. Anyway... NO, it will not bring consolation. I know how we are , collectors... Quote
michel1969 Posted January 27, 2007 Author Report Posted January 27, 2007 - lou donaldson, time is right, 3times outbid I don't even try to bid on this one. I'm waiting to find a NM copy at 3 € at my local flea market. Quote
Big Beat Steve Posted January 27, 2007 Report Posted January 27, 2007 Strangely enough, most of those records I've been trying to find for a VERY long time then all of a sudden were (almost) all over the place once I had located a copy at long last. I'd been looking for that very first real LP by Horst Jankowski - his 1961 "Gäste bei Horst Jankowski" LP on the Metronome label for almost 20 years and the first copy I ever came across anywhere at all was one located through eBay in NM from a German seller in 2001 or so (not cheap but halfway affordable). And not more than about a year later I ended up with another copy (this one VG+) (so now I even have a trade item...). That one came my way with a stack of records (that included one of the original Brunswick Donald Byrd in Paris LP's) bought as one lot from another eBay seller about 30 miles from where I live! And all this after having searched for this one at flea markets, garage sales, record fairs, secondhand record shops for years and years! Same story with another long-time wants list: Back in the late 70s I hesitated too long buying the sole copy of that "The Cats & The Fiddle" 2-record set on the Bluebird label that made it to a local record store. Couldn't quite figure out what THAT band was and when I finally made up my mind it was gone! No chance of finding it anywhre else at a halfway affordable price in those pre-internet days, of course. Then in the early 90s I met a local couple that had that a copy (they must have bought the very copy I had missed back then). So now at least I had a cassette dub ... Finally, after eBay had arrived I took the plunge in 2001 and jumped at the occasion when a copy came up on eBay.com (not cheap with airmail fare from the U.S., etc.). But lo and behold, about a year later a secondhand record store had another copy priced at LESS than that eBay price excluding shipping! (That one made a nice birthday gift for a friend though...) Wonder if that's going to happen again with my current MOST WANTED item (missed it several times on eBay as the final prices clearly were out of my range): Deutsches Amateur Jazz Festival 1958 LP on Metronome Quote

sidewinder Posted January 27, 2007 Report Posted January 27, 2007 Thinking about it, a mint copy of Joe Harriott 'Movement' would be nice (in my dreams I guess..) Quote
clifford_thornton Posted January 27, 2007 Report Posted January 27, 2007 Or, for me, Joe Harriott - Hum Dono - (Columbia) Another one: Marion Brown - Le Temps Fou - (Polydor) Quote
michel1969 Posted January 28, 2007 Author Report Posted January 28, 2007 Hum Dono - (Columbia) Marion Brown - Le Temps Fou - (Polydor) Try to contact various shops in Paris. They might find it for you. But don't forget to show them your credit card BEFORE starting the discussion Quote
ep1str0phy Posted January 28, 2007 Report Posted January 28, 2007 Marzette Watts - Marzette Watts Ensemble (Savoy) Does anyone here own this? Quote
Clunky Posted January 28, 2007 Report Posted January 28, 2007 I'm not looking for any vinyl titles but just pick up what I can. Vinyl purchases are very spontaneous as result, as any delay leads to missing out. There's so much good music out there to be had for small money it often strikes me as irrational to covet prestige titles or rara avis which go for magnitudes more. Having said that I'd like Lucky Thompson "European Songbook" (? correct title) on MPS, not heard it in any form and I'm a LT completist. Quote

I think the correct title is "A Lucky Songbook in Europe" on MPS. You should eventually find it a decent price/ Quote
brownie Posted January 28, 2007 Report Posted January 28, 2007 Or, for me, Joe Harriott - Hum Dono - (Columbia) Another one: Marion Brown - Le Temps Fou - (Polydor) Isn't 'Hum Dono' supposed to be reissued soon? If not, could provide a CDR if you're desperate! I had a copy of 'Le Temps Fou' when it was released but it seems to be lost I was at the recording session! Quote
