The latter after reading the recent 'essential' Art Blakey thread, the first after seeing Dan's avatar :D

Actually 10 years ago I was in a record store buying my first ever Jimmy Smith disc. I had two albums in my hand; Home Cookin' and Back At The Chicken Shack which I went for. Both covers are ace though.

Yesterday I bought that third "Children of Nuggets" compilation.  The one from MY era--late 70's and 80's mainly.  Somehow, getting this makes me feel so...UNCLEAN.

How is it?

Good. But not as good as either of the first two "classic" (which is to say, sixties) Nuggets boxes. This was predictable, since as this comp is drawn from an era I remember, I naturally have "issues" with some of the choices. But the box includes two (count'em, two) early dB's songs that predate their first album. That's almost worth it right there.
