JSngry Posted April 18, 2004 Report Share Posted April 18, 2004 THE JAZZ ODYSSEY OF JAMES RUSHING, ESQ. Columbia six-eye. VG to VG+, depending on if you're buying or selling. The team of Jimmy Rushing & Jo Jones dead is more dangerous than most live muthaphukkers combined. Throw in Buddy Tate & Buck Clayton, and resistance is futile. Them old folks was ROWDY!

Alfred Posted April 18, 2004 Report Share Posted April 18, 2004 Yusef Lateef - The Centaur and the Phoenix / original Riverside 1st pressing - Spend a lot of € but for me it is a great session --> A GREAT FIND! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Stefan Wood Posted April 19, 2004 Report Share Posted April 19, 2004 The Jimmy Rushing vocal track on Ellington's Jazz Party always slays me! I like his other Columbia lps as well. I found a bunch of radio broadcast lps from the bebop era, like the Dragon lp Bebop enters Sweden, with Dizzy Gillespie big band, Chubby Jackson group, James Moody; Charlie Parker's 1949 Carnegie Hall concert, and others. Also, Howard Rumsey's Lighthouse All Stars on Omega, which sounds real nice. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest ariceffron Posted April 20, 2004 Report Share Posted April 20, 2004 THAT HAMPTON LP IS ACTUALLY REALLY GOOD. I BROUGHT THAT ONE FOR HIM TO AUTOGRAPH WHEN I MET HIM A FEW YEARS AGO-- AND HE LOOKS UP AT ME FROM HIS WHEELCHAIR, AND HE SAID: "I SIGN 10 RECORDS AND 9 OF THEM HAVE COVERS I AIN'T NEVER SEEN BEFO'" Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

patricia Posted April 25, 2004 Report Share Posted April 25, 2004 Yesterday at my favourite used vinyl emporium, way downtown: "Kings Of New Orleans" - Pete Fountain, Jack Teagarden, Eddie Condon, Earl Bostic, Pee Wee Hunt. This is on a small label called "Design" and I gather that it was so low-end that it doesn't even have a track list on the cover, just an ad for other artists they've distributed on the label. $5.00 "Cozy Cole and other All-Time Jazz Stars" This is Cozy, behind Coleman Hawkins, Rex Stewart, Tyree Glenn, Claude Hopkins, Billy Bauer, Arvell Shaw, Bobby Byrne, Eddie Safranski, Pee Wee Erwin, Cliff Leeman, Peanuts Hucko, Billy Maxted, Will Bradley, Trigger Alpert and Lou Stein. Again, another el-cheapo label, "Colortone", an offshoot of Sparten Records, track list on the front, no cover notes, just advertising for their other releases on the back of the cover. $5.00 And, I saved the best for last, "The Individualism Of Pee Wee Russell" with Ruby Braff and Red Richards, recorded live in Storyville, in 1952!!! WOW!! It's a two-record set, immaculate condition and it has a super kick-ass version of St. James Infirmary that sends chills down my spine. $20.00 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Clunky Posted April 26, 2004 Report Share Posted April 26, 2004 (edited) "Cozy Cole and other All-Time Jazz Stars" Cozy is ok, for sure my latest trawl of LPs includes some performances I'd never heard of Cozy Cole/Pete Johnson- All star sing Savoy Sessions- 2LPs 1944- plenty of Webster, Hawkins and many others- really surprised that this isn't better known Shelly Manne- Geant de Jazz Vol 3 -Barclay - 1940's sessions with Hodges and Bigard !!!! Earl Hines - Paris Session- Ducret- 1965 solo set, wonderful John Lewis - P.O.V.- Columbia Forrest westbrook a.o - This is their time- Revelation 11- freeish west coast date from 1969 and few others beside...all £2.50 each LP Edited April 26, 2004 by Clunky Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JSngry Posted May 1, 2004 Report Share Posted May 1, 2004 Hermeto Pascoal - LAGO DA CANOA MUNICIPO DE ARAPIRACA on Som de Gente. $2.98, still sealed. Perfect pressing. Hermeto is one WACK muthafukkah. With deals like this, I'm tempted to say "Who NEEDS a CD player?!?!?!" But that would be foolish. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
garthsj Posted May 1, 2004 Report Share Posted May 1, 2004 John Lewis - P.O.V.- Columbia I wonder if this truly GREAT album will ever be reisued as a CD? I am lucky to have a CDR .. but when I had vinyl I had three copies of this .. one of my alltime favorties... fantastic interplay between John Lewis, Richard Davis, and Mel Lewis ... ENJOY!

Tom in RI Posted May 17, 2004 Report Share Posted May 17, 2004 Recent score, Sal Salvador "You Ain't Heard Nothing Yet" on Dauntless for 9.99 and Chuck Wayne "Tapestry" on Focus. The Salvador lp is a big band date with Joe Farrell, Nick Brignola and others. The Wayne is trio and features a couple of examples of jazz banjo in addition to Wayne's wonderful guitar work. Both in vg+/nm- condition. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tjazz Posted May 17, 2004 Report Share Posted May 17, 2004 (edited) my vinyl cup overfloweth at present, goodies yesterday included Wilber de Paris- Atlantic ( off the mosaic set?)- nice If it's a Wilbur De Paris album on Atlantic under his name, then it's on Collectables. Still very nice music. Edited June 3, 2004 by Tjazz Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

sidewinder Posted May 31, 2004 Report Share Posted May 31, 2004 That 'Mainstem' is a gem - I think my 'Bergenfield' was about $7, a bargain. Nice find ! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
desertblues Posted June 1, 2004 Author Report Share Posted June 1, 2004 That 'Mainstem' is a gem - I think my 'Bergenfield' was about $7, a bargain. Nice find ! Yes indeed! Any lp with a track dedicated to a bottle of J&B is a winner in my book. Joe Newman is great on this one too, IMHO. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jazzhound Posted June 3, 2004 Report Share Posted June 3, 2004 I just picked up 10" Gerry Mullligan with Chet and Zoot on Pacific Jazz label for ten bucks on EBAY . Described as excellent. I guess it was a good deal, but who knows? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I guess it was a good deal, but who knows? Sounds pretty good. Don't these usually go for at least $100? I've got one of the Baker/Mulligan 10" disks. It has the quartet on one side plus the band with Lee Konitz on the other. One of the very ealy PJ releases, if I remember rightly. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jazzhound Posted June 11, 2004 Report Share Posted June 11, 2004 Just picked up The Free Spirits recorded by Van Gelder with coryell and jim pepper on sax. Should be interesting! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Pete B Posted June 11, 2004 Report Share Posted June 11, 2004 (edited) I just received the e.p. on Imperial with Oscar Pettiford and Harry Babasin playing twin cellos with a combo. A typical Ebay "mint" record (i.e. NOT) but it's playable and it's cool to own it. And it cost me all of $1.99!
