Dan Gould Posted August 10, 2017 Report Share Posted August 10, 2017 Purchase or arrived today? Freddie Hubbard - Benny Golson The Jazz Masters (Groove Merchant) 180 gram reissue vinyl, I'm confused about the history though. Was this unissued at the time of recording? Doesn't seem like a Sonny Lester/Groove Merchant date. But that's what it say, and sealed, for $6, with Mulgrew Miller aboard seemed like a no-brainer. Great Jazz Trio - Kindness, Joy, Love & Happiness (Inner City) Never even heard of this one but its in VG++ condition for $2.50 so how could I pass it up, despite the terrible shape of the cover? Eddie Clearwater, The Chief (Rooster) and the seller threw in a freebie: Woody Herman - 12 Shades of Blue (Columbia) In VG+ condition.

kh1958 Posted August 10, 2017 Report Share Posted August 10, 2017 I think the Benny Golson/Freddie Hubbard may have originally come out on a Japanese label. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dan Gould Posted August 11, 2017 Report Share Posted August 11, 2017 And the trouble with LPs sealed for a decade, its a tad warped. Sounds OK though. More vinyl arriving today: Katie Webster, Pounds of Blues (Charly R&B) Pony Poindexter, The Happy Life of Pony (Session) Frank Foster Quintet, Chiquito Loco (Bingow) - Live in Europe in the 70s with Mickey Tucker and Ted Dunbar Clark Terry Live '64 (Silveto) - had no idea until recently that Horace Silver's label put out non-Horace music Jimmy Witherspoon - A Spoonful of Soul (Verve) - autographed! Hawk (Shoestring) - When I interviewed Eddie Higgins it was the first I'd heard of his first big moment in the sun, accompanying Hawkins at the Chicago Jazz fest. I had no idea there was an airshot that got released in the 70s. So one side and one track is Hawk with Eddie Higgins and the rest are sketchily dated live recordings of the 50s with Teddy Wilson, with Buck Clayton sitting in on one track and Dizzy on another. Most excited to hear the Hawk, I hope the quality is decent, and the Pony, as I heard his disc in that Enja box of unissued 70s sets and enjoyed it quite a bit.

duaneiac Posted August 11, 2017 Report Share Posted August 11, 2017 The Complete Motown Singles, Vol 1 -- a 6 CD set. Not many hits in this collection from the early years, but I'm interested in hearing what Motown had to offer in the beginning. Plus, the liner notes in all the other entries in the series that I have have been most informative. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Dan Gould Posted August 12, 2017 Report Share Posted August 12, 2017 Thanks KH. There are actually a couple of tracks missing from the Groove Merchant LP., Arriving today, Boogie for Three Pianos - Sammy Price, Jay McShann, Jean-Paul Amouroux (Swing Land) Stumbled across this on Discogs and decided to go for it - a live concert from 1989 featuring two legends and a much younger boogie-type player, solo, duo and all-three-at-once. If nothing should make for an interesting BFT track or two. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

JSngry Posted September 8, 2017 Report Share Posted September 8, 2017 Buying the Ornette to save the LPs ( for/from what, I have no idea, but it seems like a valid-ish justification?), but the Eckstine, is due to hearing this on a YouTube discovery-binge and thinking, wow, that chart is a lot more..engaged than it had to be. I don't know if there's been a curve I'm now behind, but a re-evaluation of Billy Eckstine as more than just "the guy who had that hip big band and then turned into a bland MOR crooner for the next how many ever decades" is definitely something that seems due, for me, at least. The man's instrument was remarkable and he yielded it masterfully no matter the context. I've hears some pretty questionable contexts, but never any questionable singing.Is it just me, or is he pretty much forgotten these days except for leading the big band? That just seems wrong...

ejp626 Posted December 30, 2017 Report Share Posted December 30, 2017 Somewhat inspired by the music that didn't make it to LP thread, I searched again and found Dolo Coker's Third Down LP for $15 and ordered that. It will be quite some time before it is in my hands and I reassemble my turntable, but I'll try to be patient. I'm leaning towards ordering Night Train by Jimmy Forrest, a compilation of his early material on Delmark. I'm holding back for the moment because I think I probably owned this at one point, but maybe I just saw it a lot back in the day when I used to drop into the Jazz Record Mart a lot. In either case, I don't have it in my collection now. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The Magnificent Goldberg Posted January 2, 2018 Report Share Posted January 2, 2018 I've been getting lax keeping up with Houston Person releases lately. But I had a day a month or so ago when I listened to his material all day long. As a result, I asked my wife and daughter to get me a couple I'd missed for Christmas. Well, they got me four! Something personal Thinking of you Naturally Rain or shine wasn't even available when I asked, so my daughter got that, too! Boxing day was LOVELY!

MG I've made a habit of watching for Houston's Fall Highnote release then ask for it at Christmas or use an Amazon gift card for it. So all I got was the latest, Rain or Shine. Very nice. There's a certain sameness to his releases on Highnote but I don't care. Someday there won't be a new collection of ballads, standards and blues so I'll keep collecting them all.

ejp626 Posted January 7, 2018 Report Share Posted January 7, 2018 Was doing some poking around on on-line discography sites. Found out about an Al Haig session with Jimmy Raney - Special Brew. Never on LP. Sad... It is mentioned briefly here in a different thread more focused on Raney, but not the music that never made it to CD thread. Anyway, found a supposedly NM- copy on-line for $5. I'll post my thoughts on the not on CD thread when I can, but it will be a long while before I actually have it in my hands... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
