Big Al Posted July 25, 2008 Report Posted July 25, 2008 "Charlie Parker -- A Studio Chronicle 1940-1948" The reviews say this one includes all the Dial and Savoy masters, plus additional material. And J&R has it for $29. I have a paltry amount of Parker on hand, so this seemed like a good way to immerse myself a little more. Oh yeah, this is a nice one! Quote
poetrylover3 Posted July 25, 2008 Report Posted July 25, 2008 Good sound quality, a well balanced 22 tracks each of Waller performing Waller, Waller instrumentals, Waller performing other people's compositions. At approximately $9 plus S & H from Amazon affiliates this 3CD(66 track) set is a real bargain and fills my Fats Waller hole-I only owned a 1 disc The Very Best of Fats Waller, previously. Quote

BillF Posted July 28, 2008 Report Posted July 28, 2008 Jazz Giants '58 (Verve) Bought this after reading about it recently on the board. First impressions - reminds me of Herb Ellis's Nothing But the Blues, a great favorite of mine, recorded in the same year for the same label and sharing three of the personnel. Quote

paul secor Posted July 29, 2008 Report Posted July 29, 2008 Bill Dixon w. Tony Oxley: Papyrus Volume II (Soul Note) Flute Force Four (Henry Threadgill, James Newton, Pedro Eustache, Melecio Magdaluyo): Flutistry (Black Saint) How are these? Been meaning to pick up more of Dixon's Soul Note work. Haven't listened yet, but I'll let you know. Holy Ghost - Listened to Flutistry today. This is one that seemed to slip under the radar when it was released (1997) - at least under my radar. It's a recording that demands attention - if you're not truly listening, it will probably make no impression at all. If you do give it your full attention, it will repay that attention. The six tracks combine precomposing and improvised composing. Some of the fun of listening to this is to try and hear which is which. On first listen, I had some opinions but I'm sure I'll hear more with further listens. I'm sure there will be more. Quote

BillF Posted July 31, 2008 Report Posted July 31, 2008 Perhaps this one should be headed "What music didn't you buy today?" Called in yesterday at the splendidly-named Hairy Records, a used record store in Liverpool, to find that their small jazz CD section had disappeared. Not surprised! When I'd previously asked the owner for used jazz CDs, he replied (in strong Liverpool accent): "No calll for 'em. Trouble with these jazz people is, if they buy something, they keep it and never sell it on" Quote

T.D. Posted July 31, 2008 Report Posted July 31, 2008 (edited) I noticed that Newbury Comics has a sale on some OJCs (seemingly not a huge number, but scattered) at Amazon Marketplace. I ordered Elmo Hope Homecoming and Charles McPherson McPherson's Mood. Would have shopped around for more, but have had to cut back the CD budget of late... Edited July 31, 2008 by T.D. Quote
1009 Posted July 31, 2008 Report Posted July 31, 2008 Bought a Wilen myself today: Auto Jazz: Tragic Destiny of Lorenzo Bandini. Also John Surman's How Many Clouds Can You See? Both @ Dusty Groove. Quote

Niko Posted August 4, 2008 Report Posted August 4, 2008 ordered Yoch'ko Seffer / Siegfried Kessler "Play Ellington" Tommy Chase / Ray Warleigh featuring Jon Eardley "One way" and (my first mosaic...) just found a copy of the john patton select at a local store, 40 euro... guess the price was ok but not great ,thought getting around the trouble with customs and shipping and waiting is also worth something...

jostber Posted August 4, 2008 Report Posted August 4, 2008 Ordered from Honest Jon's: Sun Ra - Of Mythic Worlds A reissue of a record from the Philly Jazz label in the late 70's. Same label that released the classic "Lanquidity" with Ra. Quote
RiRiIII Posted August 4, 2008 Report Posted August 4, 2008 It's Saturday evening here in the UK. Millions of shoppers have arrived home laden with 'stuff'. Some of them may be enjoying their new purchases, others may be searching for the receipt in order to exchange it tomorrow (in the UK now, Saturday and Sunday are almost interchangeable, except for car-boot sales and 'Antiques Roadshow'). So. What music did you buy? I'm aware that many of you may have huge stockpiles of records in a queue and lots of you may buy online. Me? No music today. Next week maybe. Cheers, tonym. Just received from various on line orders: Mulligan - Jeru - Sony/Legacy O. Coleman - Beauty is a rare thing - Rhino O. Coleman - The Complete Science Fiction Sessions - Sony/Legacy O. Coleman - Skies of America Tjader, Getz - Sextet - SACD D. Ellington - Piano on the background O. Peterson Trio + one - VME R. Kirk - Domino - VME MJQ - Last concert - Atlantic MJQ - European concert - Atlantic Chet Baker - Big Band Where can I purchase free time? Alex Quote

Niko Posted August 6, 2008 Report Posted August 6, 2008 (edited) Tommy Chase / Ray Warleigh featuring Jon Eardley "One way" Interesting! Is that the one with my old friend Danny Padmore on bass? that's the one! had never heard of it, always thought "ray warleigh's first album" was his only one and was pretty excited to see there was another album, and even on cd for a nice price... http://www.amazon.co.uk/One-Way-Tommy-Chas...2180&sr=8-1 it's not yet here but i will pay special attention to the bass playing Edited August 6, 2008 by Niko Quote
