I found an excellent looking copy of this vinyl album for $1 at the library's sale today:

I don't think I've ever seen it on CD.

Yesterday, I made a quick run up to McKay's in Chattanooga.  I brought these home:

CDs
Dave Brubeck Quartet - 25th Anniversary Reunion (A&M Horizon)
Joey Calderazzo - Haiku (Marsalis Music)
Either/Orchestra - The Half-Life of Desire (Accurate)
Ella Fitzgerald - Newport Jazz Festival: Live at Carnegie Hall, 1973 (Columbia)
Frank Foster & the Loud Minority (Mainstream/Jazz Heritage)
Sheila Jordan - Portrait of Sheila (Blue Note)
Bill Mays/Ray Drummond - One to One (DMP)
Carmen McRae - Carmen Sings Monk (RCA Bluebird)
Bennie Wallace - Talk of the Town (Enja)

LPs
Tim Berne - Fulton Street Maul (Columbia)
Jack Walrath - Neohippus (Blue Note)

McKay's is fun. You never know what you'll find. And their prices are usually good too.

"Carmen Sings Monk" ....

Last CD I bought was the MFSL of Some Day My Prince Will Come (MFCD 828) from 1990 with the original Teo Macero mix. Nothing wrong with the Mark Wilder remix, but there is a clear difference. Good to have alongside all the other more recent MFSL Miles Davis SACDs with original mixes.

[erwbol]

Latest Jazz Messengers order:

• Anthony Braxton & Miya Masaoka - Duo (DCWM) 2013; Braxton paired with a 21 string koto sounds real good. Sample here.
• Orrin Evans - #knowingishalfthebattle; With Kurt Rosenwinkel and Kevin Eubanks.

Found this for $8 on ebay today:

Earl 'Fatha' Hines - The Father of Modern Jazz Piano (M.F. Distribution, 1977)
It's a five-LP set:
- 3 LPs - solo piano
- 2 LPs - quartet with Budd Johnson (ts); Bill Pemberton (b); Oliver Jackson (d)

Never heard any of this music. Looking forward to it!  

[jazzbo]

Great set! I have that one too. 

[Chuck Nessa]

Much of it (if not all) was reissued on Black Lion and related labels, both cd and vinyl. Great stuff. Wish I had kept the box.

I really like the track "M.F. Blues."

Decided against the Chick Webb / Ella Fitzgerald Mosaic as I have never been much enarmoured by Ella's voice and vocal sytlistics and ordered the two Chick Webb CD's from HEP instead.

So I cancelled my Amazon (pre-)order of the new Monk and Horace Tapscott's The Dark Tree to get these rare Threadgill beauties on CD instead:

 

The Henry Threadgill Sextet - When Was That? (About Time Recrords)

The Henry Threadgill Sextet - Just the Facts and Pass the Bucket (About Time Records)

Henry Threadgill - Too Much Sugar for a Dime (Axiom)

Does anyone know why Subject to Change was never released on cd?  It's not even available to download despite the fact that the two other About Time releases are.
