Conte Candoli  -- West Coast Wailers. Two 1956 LPs on one CD. Same group on both -- Candoli, Bill Holman, Lou Levy, Leroy Vinnegar, Lawrence Marable. All parties in top form, the surprise for me being what a fine muscular tenorman Holman was --  perhaps halfway between Zoot and early Rollins but actually quite individual.

Totally agree - Bill Holman was/is very under-rated on tenor.

Is that ‘West Coast Wailers’ the one on the 1000Yen edition? My copy is in that excellent and great value series.

Label it's on is Phono. Lou Levy and Conte were a terrific comper-soloist pair; at times you can hear Conte completing in the next breath an idea that sprang right from Lou's comping. And Marable is really popping.

Was lucky enough to catch both Conte and Lou live - same festival but not together. Both wonderful players. Conte I remember as being full of ideas and enthusiasm - with excellent trumpet technique.

Yeah can’t wait to spin them :) Was looking for them for quite a while. They have to be shipped from Japan so I have to be patient...

Ordered some LPs from Euclid today:

This Lee Konitz LP is an "upgrade" from emusic.com downloads to vinyl.

This Bill Hardman album was produced by Bob Porter, always a good sign.  After only having heard Walter Bishop's "Coral Keys" from this LP, I'm looking forward to hearing the rest of it.

I made my first visit today to Houston's Cactus Music in a year.  Felt good to browse in a real record store again.  Everyone wore masks, and they asked customers to hand-sanitize before shopping.  Pretty good haul:

Paul Winter Consort - Icarus (Living Music reissue)

Oregon/Elvin Jones Together (Vanguard)

Junior Mance - Live At The Top (Guest Artist: David Newman) (Atlantic)

Herbie Mann Live At Newport (Atlantic)

Johnny Hammond Smith - Imagination (Warwick)

And for 97 cents each:

Keith Jarrett - Spirits (ECM)

Bennie Wallace - Twilight Time (Blue Note)

Sam Most - Flute Flight (Xanadu)
