Presenting Ronnie Scott sextet, Fontana reissue. Wanted records, Bristol. Nice shop, lots of jazz. No bargains but reasonable. 

[jlhoots]

Preordered Coltrane / Dolphy & the new Lucinda Williams.

[T.D.]

Mostly unusual stuff and shots in the dark, but they weren't expensive...

(an early Mike Nock recording)

Mike Melito "The Thing Is To Swing, " with Joe Magnareili, Grant Stewart,  et al. Nice choice of tunes -- two from Tommy Turrentine,  a medium-up "Lush Life" (surprislngy effective that way) "Straight Street"  etc.

👍 Yes, one of the best of recent issues IMHO.

A bundle of nice Stan Tracey reissues on the Resteamed site. Nice sale currently on there.

A recent download of the Louisiana Sugar Babies session from the James P. Johnson Mosaic was my first Fats Waller recording.  I quickly realized I needed more and figured that this could be a good choice.

Sure, if I can remember...😄

Not sure I recall that thread, but the disc was also recommended in a thread on the Vampi Soul label.

I recently picked up another Vampi Soul disc from DG for $5.99

https://www.discogs.com/master/430576-Ruben-Lopez-Furst-Jazz-Argentino-En-La-Universidad

and liked it so much that I resolved to buy Fetén in the next order, same vendor / price.

I'm filling in Commodore gaps (or at least what is possible to fill in on CD) and grabbed the three Giants of the Tenor Sax volumes, one with Chu Berry and Lucky Thompson, one with Coleman Hawkins and Frank Wess and one with Ben Webster and Don Byas, along with Boogie Woogie and the Blues - Piano Solos by Albert Ammons.

I had wanted the newer Hawkins/Berry compilation with alternates but knew I'd miss the orphaned Thompson and Wess sides.  I then won a four-disc lot with these four albums on eBay for less than $14 after shipping.  The Ammons disc was a happy bonus.  From the name, I expected all solo piano, so the fantastic session with Page, Byas, Dickenson, Crosby and Catlett was a welcome surprise.

Got the disc. Sounded very good on a first listening. Unfortunately, the CD arrived scratched and has to go back.😢

Hope to say more if / once a replacement copy is received.

Because it's such a low-priced item, they (DG) are crediting my account rather than sending a replacement. So I plan to throw a copy (if still in stock) in my next order. The scratch is at the end of the last track, so I can listen to around 95% of the disc straight through.

In the meantime, I ordered this from elsewhere
