Made the way down the hill from work to Amoeba (gorgeous today in SF!) and picked some OOP releases on vinyl at great prices.

Lee Morgan – Taru

John McLaughlin – Where Fortune Smiles

Gabor Szabo – Live (w/Charles Lloyd and featuring a NSFW cover)

Gary Burton – Ring

Comments on these are welcomed.

I think you scored with Where Fortune Smiles. Although I don't own it, the samples I've heard are awesome! Just have a cd player and the cd is pretty rare nowadays.

I know something is worth only what someone would pay for it but I was surprised to find Where Fortune Smiles for 5 bucks after seeing the CD go for 40 on amazon. Its some killer free jazz.

Gave all of these a listen so far and they are all excellent. I think side one of the Szabo and side two of the Burton I have enjoyed the most so far.

Jack Wilson - Something Personal

I should give this another listen.

Today, bought Sonny Meets Hawk! on CD.

I think it's an excellent disc. It makes me want to pick up "Ramblin'" which also features Roy Ayers. I was saying in another thread that I'm surprised that Wilson didn't have a bigger following because I think he was worthy of one.
