I know that one, and am definitely on the lookout for it. Kamuca records (other than the Shelly Manne set) are hard to find.

Gotcha.

I came very close to buying this the last time someone brought this up and I found it darn hard to find. It's also very short (~28 minutes). Never on CD that I'm aware. Take a listen to it here and see if you think it's worth paying the current asking prices for it:

 

 

Well I have it a long time ago.

Can also recommend this one (on CD only)

Already owned the Mulligan but sent that one back cause it was heavily damaged. Found a good copy. This is some of my favorite West Coast stuff on record.

Melanie De Biasio - A Stomach is burning (Igloo)

[Larry Kart]

Virgina Black -- Goldberg Variations

[Kevin Bresnahan]

Yesterday, I picked up a few things from the newly-reopened Bull Moose Music in Portsmouth, NH.

LPs

Paul Desmond - Summertime (A&M/CTI)

Paul Desmond - Bridge Over Troubled Water (A&M). Bought this on an All Music Guide recommendation. It's good - not great - and I only thought one track was "eh" ("America").

Duke Ellington - Meets Coleman Hawkins (Impulse!/Analogue Productions). This is the recent reissue.

CDs

Al Cohn/Zoot Sims - From A To Z - And Beyond (RCA)

Stan Getz - The Song Is You (Laserlight Digital). This one was bought after the discussions here. It is pretty good stuff.

I got the other five releases from the 80th birthday celebration at TUM but am still resisting here... and I do have to say that the first box I got, the one with Laswell and Graves, is still my favorite by far, followed by the Chicago Symphonies... the remainder is also fine, but it's a lot of cds even without the string quartet box

I have the others too and agree about the Laswell/Graves set although the solo set is special too.  I haven't gone for the drummers duets as I have a number of earlier releases with that format.  I thought the String Qts would be something different, that was my self-justification anyway

Roy Brooks: Ethnic Expressions, Live At Small's Paradise NYC (Japanese CD issue)

[mjazzg]

always happy to add a new Mangelsdorff to the collection but the clincher is the track by Zagreb Jazz Quartet whose album "With Pain I was Born" is a particular favourite.  thanks @Rabshakehfor posting this recently.

Also looking forward to collecting these from Honest Jon's this week

I'll check out that Zaghreb record as the track was strong.

Who is Kleinschuster?

From the blurb...the samples sound great

" Recorded at the ORF studios in Vienna, where trombonist Erich Kleinschuster ran a very tight house band, a glittering array of guest leaders "

and

" Erich Kleinschuster’s projects and initiatives played a vital role in establishing a spiritual home for jazz in Vienna. The founding of his sextet in 1966 and, in 1968, a jazz department at the Vienna Conservatory, were catalysts for a scene that attracted international stars as well as nurturing the careers of home-grown virtuosos. Many jazz exiles, admired in Europe as they never were in the United States, settled for long periods, carving out new lives on the continent. The recordings in this series – many only recently discovered and presented for their first time on these vinyl editions – provide an illuminating and long overdue testament to one of the unsung forces of modern jazz in Europe."

I suspect @soulpopemight be able to help us?

The tracks there were previously issued on a couple of GermanAustrian CDs which are difficult to get hold of (and which have been the subject of discussion on this board). Radio material from ORF but of a very good quality and well recorded.

Wallen Bink were offering these 3 sets as a ‘discounted’ bundle.

Updated to say just put in my order too as I had my eye on these. The ‘bundle’ purchase option (in fact all purchase options ) have for some reason suddenly disappeared from the WB site. May be a glitch, a temporary restock/repress or WB on holiday perhaps but not taking any chances so HJ via Royal Mail it is.

Those SABA singles they have put out look pretty cool too.

Erich Kleinschuster was awell known Austrian trombone player .... he had an own "Jazz Show" on Austrian Radio from the mid60s onwards and was in the position to feature alongside his regular Sextet guest stars like Joe Henderson, Charles Tolliver, Benny Bailey to name a few .... some of these sessions were issued on CD ....

I know him from the Art Farmer ‘Gentle Eyes’ on Mainstream. In fact, ‘Soulsides’ from that session is also included in a new version on the double album with Art Farmer.

Those CDs weren’t cheap when they came out and I only ever saw one the once over here. Now pretty well impossible to get - I’ve kept searching. Problem solved now though !

So this is one of those "almost embarrassed to say" posts.

I was reading a review of one of Art Tatum's group sessions recordings - the one with DeFranco - when I realized that I never got around to buying those group sessions. I've onwed and enjoyed the one with Ben Webster for years (on the XRCD) and I always planned to pick up the box set but never got around to it. So yesterday, I finally grabbed 4 or 5 of the group sessions. I'm actually looking forward to finally hearing them.
