Got an e-mail from CD Universe this morning, to say that Solar have issued (or will soon) an Eddie 'Lockjaw' Davis set - 7 original albums.

I had a look and saw that I only have six of them !!!! So I went to Amazon and got myself a download of the one I never even HEARD of (because it's usually listed under 'Sweets' Edison's name, I guess.

Coumba Gawlo - Takussan Live in Dakar - Sabar

Coumba Gawlo - La diva a la voix d'or: 23 ans de success: disc 2 - Sabar

Got this in Paris in June but found that disc 2 had the same music on it as disc 1. Today, looking at the discs, I see they were manufactured by Princo Budget, which may be indicative :D

But this disc is bloomin' fantastic!

Haven't got onto the Takussan set yet. That's from 2004.

Enjoying the Nessa CDs I've purchased so much, I ordered Congliptuous, LRG/The Maze/SII Examples, Missing Link and Snurdy McGurdy (this one on back order) along with Jack Benny television series DVD from Importcds.

As I said in another thread, I only buy downloads of music I can't get any other way. Well, after buying a warts-and-all iTunes-only Louis Armstrong session including all the outtakes, I decided to check the iTunes store to see if there was any Steve Lacy I didn't have. Yes! So now downloading:

Steve Lacy/Barry Wedgle/J.J. Avenel - Live From Lugano. I love the Lacy/Wedgle duo album Rendezvous, so I didn't think twice about buying this download-only album.

Steve Lacy/Tony Rusconi - L'Aventura. I'm unclear if this 1981 concert with an Italian percussionist was ever issued in physical form. but this Lacy fanatic thinks not. In any case, I had never heard of it before tonight.

Steve Lacy (actually Joe Puma was the bandleader) - "Indian Blanket." The only early Lacy track I haven't heard. I have the other tune from this 1956 session, "Give Me the Simple Life," on a Harmony LP, but this one was only issued on a European Jazztone anthology back in the day. I was reluctant to pay for a pirate CD to get one track I didn't have, but somehow it doesn't bother me as much to pay 69 cents for a download. I hope that Puma's estate got a few of my pennies, but I kind of doubt it.

I've generally been pretty good about not buying much these past few months. I did get a Mingus Atlantic Original Albums box set and Chick Webb Strictly Jive (Hep). While at Miguel Zenon's show at the Jazz Showcase, I bought (and had him sign) Oye. I also backed two Kickstarter projects that should (eventually) lead to some music landing in my in-box.

And inspired by a recent Kronos Quartet concert I attended, I ordered The Music of Vladimir Martynov, which is particularly notable for this quintet piece they commissioned. Joan Jeanrenaud performed as 2nd cello on the recording (and a handful of live concerts). The download has just completed, so I'm going to give it a whirl.
