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...

it's not yet here but i will pay special attention to the bass playing

Great! Danny and I were part of the Leeds jazz scene in the 1960s, together with Brian Priestley, Dave Cliff and Peter Ind - who gave Danny invaluable bass lessons. Danny is still playing, though I think the record you've bought was his only time in the recording studio.

Neil Young - Time Fades Away in excellent condition. Incredibly pleased considering I stumbled across it in the wild and I've been looking for it for about 2-3 years.

Picked up BOB WILBER at Bechet's, ROD LEVITT/Solid Ground, NEW MCKINNEY'S COTTON PICKERS (Sealed) and JIMMY MCPARTLAND/Music Man Goes Dixieland - each one only $1.99 and in great shape. REALLY, REALLY enjoying the ROD LEVITT as I type...

Just placed an order for: Anderson / Drake / Jordan / Parker -- "Two Days in April"

if someone with the photoshop skills made a genuine pablo album out of this, i wouldn't mind (all you have to do is change the type to something strange and maybe make the whole thing 30 percent darker)

Among the recent purchases I've made, I'm quite looking forward to this one:

Lane / Grassi / Whitecage -- "Drunk Butterfly"

Tight review here.

The nut graph (for me):

Lane on bass, Grassi on drums, Whitecage on sax. And it is a winner: warm, melodic and rhythmic. Every tune is composed with a clear theme, but the improvisations can be quite free, and the three Adam Lane tunes are very bluesy. His "Sanctum" is an example in case, with a beautiful tune, vaguely reminiscent of French bass player Henri Texier's take at composition.

Any music that recalls Texier is worth investigating. Add to it "warm, melodic and rhythmic" with free improvisation ... I'm in.
