From the many great suggestions in the Charles Mingus thread, I bought a pair of titles to accompany the Ah Um 50th Anniversary (Legacy Edition). (Ah Um / Mingus Dynasty 2-fer)

ROUN1127_Cover.jpg

My copy of Naftule Brandwein - King of the Klezmer Clarinet arrived today. I've been enjoying a burned copy someone gave me, but I wanted a legit copy with liner notes and info. The notes make kind of a deal of the rivalry between Brandwein and fellow clarinetist Dave Tarras, whose music I've also been enjoying lately. Tarras was the Lee Konitz to Brandwein's Bird, or maybe more like Jimmie Noone to Brandwein's Johnny Dodds. In any case, this is some excellent, passionate music, mostly from the twenties.

James Moody, Moody's Mood for Blues/James Moody's Moods (OJC/Prestige)

Thanks to whoever reminded me of this one on the board a little while ago. Great stuff, which I last heard on Esquire 10" LP. (Sidewinder please note :) )

Noted - don't think I've ever seen an Esquire of that one. Wonder what the cover art was like?

That I don't recall. I never owned it, but borrowed it from Leeds Public Libraries. Looking back, they were decidedly progressive for c.1960; e.g. they had many of the Gene Ammons Prestige jam sessions - on Esquire, too I think - 12" LPs, though. (You'll be able to correct me on that.)

Damn - I was just down the road (although in a nappy ) :lol: . No excuse, I know.

I think the Ammons LPs did appear on Esquire (or possibly Stateside) - for sure the Coltrane jam sessions were issued by them. Pretty rare LPs - only in the few hundreds in many cases. Oh to have a time machine and a Leeds Public Library ticket !

Did we all live in Leeds in the fifties?

Wynton Marsalis - Live At The Village Vanguard (7-CD)

I wasn't in the market for this but I happened across a new copy of this set for less than $12.00 delivered so I thought it was probably well worth taking a chance on it.

Addendum: Alas, my great deal is not to be, the order was cancelled. Amazon totally removed the listing from my order history so I can't even leave any kind of feedback.
