The Bebop Revolution (RCA/Bluebird). I keep this CD for the four tracks I don't have elsewhere: the wonderful 1946 session by Kenny Clarke and His 52nd Street Boys. I enjoyed that twelve minutes of music so much that I turned to this collection of Clarke's European recordings I found about 20 years ago:

Special Kenny Clarke (French EMI). This starts with KC's first session as leader, recorded in 1938 in Stockholm, while Clarke was on tour with Edgar Hayes' big band. He plays xylophone (!) exclusively. Much excellent music follows.

Anthony Williams: Life Time

Sam Rivers!

Both Tony Williams albums for BN are great. It´s astonishing how this young boy, he was 18 or 19 managed to make an album so perfectly organized. It´s not a showcase for drum artistics as you would expect, it´s a thing you have to listen to as a whole art work.

And the second album "Spring" is also great, and has Sam River AND Wayne Shorter on it.
