I visited this market in Skopje in 1961, before the earthquake destroyed the old town in 1963!

I hadn't heard of these, but I see that they are all streamable. Are any of the dates particular favourites?

A lot to digest I'm finding. Several plays in and I'm not sure I've totally got it, it remains intriguing and interesting.

It's definitely challenging. But I'm enjoying the challenge.

I really like that album, picked up an LP recently.

Can you recommend anything similar?

 

As for the main solist, Ricard Roda on alto sax, I would recommend to start with

 

As for Spanish jazz from the same period, this is also strongly recommended:

 

And finally, as for jazz musicians interpreting traditional Catalan songs, I have to go with Tete Montoliu, of course. Check his Catalan Suite from 

or any of these two discs:

Interesting: 

I think I have a 4 CD box of the Royal Roost performances they are among the best Charlie Parker live with the exception of the two CBS "One Night at Birdland" and "Summit Meeting at Birdland".

The Carnegie Hall 1947 is that the record with Diz and  Dizzy´s rhythm section, where the other half is the Dizzy Gillespie Big Band ? 

Chicago 1950 I don´t know but I´m not a Bird completist.....
