I quite like that Chicago Sound album---some good stuff on there.

Hope to play that(Chicago Sound) over the course of the weekend. Arrived in the mail yesterday courtesy Oldies.com.

Some great finds today s/h - £5 each.

'Quincy Jones - Swiss Radio Days Vol 1' (TCB) - Thank you King Ubu for the prompt on this series. Fabulous ! Now I'll have to find the rest of the series.. ;)

:)

I'm waiting for a bunch to arrive via various amazon.fr marketplace sellers - those were the best prizes (w/shipping) for me.

I can highly recommend the Thad Jones/Mel Lewis, Mulligan CJB, and Louis Hayes/Woody Shaw for starters.

The Don Redman may be a bit weak (albeit the great line-up it has), but I don't think there's a real clinker in the series (But I'm still waiting for the two Peterson/Fitzgerald/JATP and the two Hamptons, as well as the Coleman Hawkins... and I still have a couple of gaps).

Thanks flurin - I'll keep an eye open for the Jones/Lewis (can't believe I haven't already seen/got that one) and the Shaw/Hayes, for sure. The Quincy Jones is a keeper !

ordered today:

The Doors - Strange Days

The Doors - L.A. Woman

(the two missing ones... got the old version of L.A. Woman though, never had/heard Strange Days!)

plus:

Joni Mitchell - Blue

Joni Mitchell - Hejira

an artist I'm just starting to discover - found her first three albums in the summer sales and I guess I'm slowly being hooked... somehow I sort of need to get over her voice... to hear how beautiful her music is and how well her voice forms part of the music!

Blue is my favorite Joni Mitchell album.

My favorite Doors' song- People Are Strange- is from Strange Days.

I know "People Are Strange", of course... I think I had a tape dub of the 2CD best of set for a while, when in high school... one of the greatest impressions was seing the opening of "Apocalypse Now" for the first time...

How about that Doors box, the longbox one, w/outtakes, rehearsals, live recordings etc? Worth getting?

:tup For Earthy! Glad you were able to get a copy at what I hope was a decent price. Love those Prestige all-star jams.
