Buncha jazz EPs at a shop in Cophenhagen: Tony Scott (Swinging in Sweden); Sidney Bechet on Vogue doing Christmas tunes (his last recording session, I believe), and several by Papa Bue's Viking Jazzband - one with George Lewis. They had some cool 78s, but I doubted they would survive the baggage handlers on the trip home.

Also picked up a CD by a Danish saxophone quartet: Saxopaths. Never heard of any of them, but I'm a sucker for saxophone ensembles.

you absolutely HAVE to look for this one here:

I think that one was reissued on a twofer LP on Impulse, coupled with a Sonny Criss (his Peacock LP?). Can't remember the title of the twofer.

MG

Somewhere I have the 2LP ( Bop-masters ?) set you mention. It was part of a long numbered series of Impulse reissues. Sound is no better than the CD issue.

Joe Harriott -- "Free Form"

51gDZvb68-L._SL500_AA240_.jpg

I was led to this in a roundabout way after reading the Wildflowers thread, reading Allen's comments on Hemphill, listening to samples from his "Big Band" album -- which is on my wish list now -- and landing somehow on Vandermark's "Straight Lines" album, which is a tribute to Harriott.

Looking forward to this one.
