The Magnificent Goldberg Posted March 22, 2006 Report Posted March 22, 2006 Well, the computer’s back from the menders. Recent purchases, while I’ve been off-line have been: Strangely, the sleeve notes say this was recorded at the end of Jimmy Ponder’s “What’s New” session, but the date given is July 2000. “What’s new” was recorded on 5 August 2002! Ponder’s “Thumbs up” was recorded on 3 July 2000, but Ludwig isn’t on it, though Brooks was. “Double exposure” is a great album, though. One my importer couldn’t get when it came out a year or so ago. Very nice stuff. Wonderful rare 70’s funk from a great, underrated, band. And is that a GREAAASSSSY sleeve or what! More from Rev Gates, from 1-6 December 1926. This one includes the incredible sermon, “You’ve got to lay down and die some day” – “You, you, you policeman; arresting innocent people; you know you’ve got to lay down and die some day!” Some things never change.

BruceH Posted March 22, 2006 Report Posted March 22, 2006 Just got Bobby Hutcherson's The Kicker----should have bought it years ago. An excellent album, one of those overlooked Blue Note gems. In this case, overlooked because unreleased for 36 years. Played it in tandem with Idle Moments last night. Quote
B. Goren. Posted March 24, 2006 Report Posted March 24, 2006 This CD arrived yesterday: Billy Harper sounds great. Quote
BruceH Posted March 27, 2006 Report Posted March 27, 2006 Bobby Hutcherson---Stick-Up! What a nice album! All Hutcherson compositions except for one---and that one's by Ornette Coleman! Quote

Kalo Posted March 30, 2006 Report Posted March 30, 2006 Just got Bobby Hutcherson's The Kicker----should have bought it years ago. An excellent album, one of those overlooked Blue Note gems. In this case, overlooked because unreleased for 36 years. Played it in tandem with Idle Moments last night. Your post prompted me to pull this out again. I agree, nice album. It'll stay in rotation around here for a while. Nicely programmed record. Love the ballad "Summer Nights." Someone I was talking to on the phone today heard me playing it in the background and commented on how nice it sounded. Quote
Kalo Posted March 30, 2006 Report Posted March 30, 2006 This CD arrived yesterday: Billy Harper sounds great. I got this pretty recently myself. Excellent record. I'm looking forward to hearing Randy live in Boston in May! Quote
Kalo Posted March 30, 2006 Report Posted March 30, 2006 Today I bought: Jimmie Lunceford Volume 1, 1927 - 1934 Jimmie Lunceford Volume 2, 1934 (Masters of Jazz/Media 7) The sound seems really good on these. I believe that this series has been discontinued. Too bad. Quote
Matthew Posted March 30, 2006 Report Posted March 30, 2006 Broke down and bought Billie Holiday: The Complete Verve Master Takes from Yourmusic. Price is just too good to pass on. Quote
tonym Posted March 30, 2006 Author Report Posted March 30, 2006 with bonus tracks!!!!!!!! - I just bought that a couple weeks ago Tony! Any good? Quote
Aggie87 Posted March 30, 2006 Report Posted March 30, 2006 I think it's really good! Not sure whether mine has bonus tracks or not though... I also picked up "Minimum Maximum", which is quite good as well. Quote
The Magnificent Goldberg Posted March 31, 2006 Report Posted March 31, 2006 Thanks to Jim for posting this a while back. First instalment of the clear up outstanding OJCs before Concord slashes them MG Quote
BruceH Posted March 31, 2006 Report Posted March 31, 2006 The Procrastinator---Lee Morgan Bobby Hutcherson is in fine form here! Quote
The Magnificent Goldberg Posted April 4, 2006 Report Posted April 4, 2006 Just turned up in the post Rushing off to the dentist now, so no time to listen to these. Something to look forward to later. MG Quote
paul secor Posted April 7, 2006 Report Posted April 7, 2006 Just arrived in the mail: Bach: Six Suites for Solo Cello - Pieter Wispelwey (Channel Classics) Fletcher Henderson and Louis Armstrong 1924/1925 (Timeless) Didn't realize when I ordered this that the tracks were edited and rearranged by John R.T. Davies to feature Louis - in some cases, editing two of Louis' solos to make one piece. Maybe it will turn out sounding ok - definitely a chance to hear Louis blow, anyway. The Incredible String Band: 5000 Spirits or the Layers of the Onion/The Hangman's Beautiful Daughter (Collector's Choice) The Stuff that Dreams Are Made of (Yazoo) - 2 CD collection of 1920's/30's blues and country music. Includes 2 recently discovered Son House sides and a ton of material new to me. Also includes an R. Crumb cartoon that nails obsessive record collecting cold. (However, I graciously thank all of the obsessive record collectors who made this Yazoo collection possible.) I'm looking forward to listening to all of these. Quote
LAL Posted April 10, 2006 Report Posted April 10, 2006 Just scored my first e-bay purchase/win - the Pete Johnson/Earl Hines/Teddy Bunn Mosaic lp. Next - gotta find some way to transfer the music to CD. Otherwise, I'll just have to make do with staring at the 3 guys on the cover grinning at me... Quote
JohnS Posted April 10, 2006 Report Posted April 10, 2006 Gerry Hemingway's The Whimbler. Nice easy purchase direct from Clean Feed. Quote
The Magnificent Goldberg Posted April 15, 2006 Report Posted April 15, 2006 In Pontypridd shopping this morning I got Jelly Roll Morton - Vol 1 1926-27 Doctor jazz I ordered something else, but Terry said he couldn't get that and thought I might like this one. He was right! MG Quote
