I made the big mistake to pay another visit to Zweitausendeins in Frankfurt after a doctor's appointment, and increased the pile of cheap Fantasy blowouts that await listening by another dozen, plus some other nice rarities (which are listed first) - the whole pile looks like this:

Guitar Moods by Mundell Lowe

The Ellingtons are great! I never found the Shank, let me know how it is, whenever you come around playing it!

Max Roach: Deeds Not Words

Cannonball Adderley & his Orchestra: African Waltz

Paul Quinichette: Basie Reunion

Phineas Newborn Jr.: The Newborn Touch

James Moody: Moody and the Brass Figures

The Prestige Jazz Quartet

Wardell Gray Memorial Vol. 1

Benny Golson's New York Scene

Guitar Moods by Mundell Lowe

Art Farmer Quintet featuring Gigi Gryce

Gary Bartz Ntu Troop: I've Known Rivers and other Bodies

all good one, the Phineas very much, and also the Moody - caught me by surprise, didn't expect it to be that great! The Vice-Pres/Basie one is the one where Jack Washington appears... nice!

The Dynamic Sound Patterns of the Rod Levitt Orchestra

I started a thread in the artists section about this some time ago... I like it a lot!

This is Lucy Reed

an oddity, but a good one, with George Russel on drums (his original instrument, I think) on one session.

Helen Humes: Songs I like to sing

Terrific, play that soon, it will quickly be among your favourite vocal discs! As crisp a sound and as agile arrangements as on those great Tormé Bethlehems Marty Paich did!

Joe Albany & Warne Marsh: The Right Combination

Another oddity, but a great one! Albany is quite interesting somewhere between Tatum and bop...

Richard Groove Holmes: On Basie's Bandstand

I'm not quite sure about this one... a bit awkward, maybe... didn't connect with me quite yet.

Charles Earland: Intensity

Charles Earland In Concert

the first was rather a letdown, for me... sorry to say, but the second I enjoyed better, even though it's more of a hybrid between funk and jazz, but there's some very good playing on it, and it does groove!

Enjoy the ride!

Cannonball Adderley & his Orchestra: African Waltz

Willis Jackson: Nuther'n Like Thuther'n

Phineas Newborn Jr.: The Newborn Touch

Charles Earland In Concert

No mistakes in this bunch Mike. Some of my favourites (and I few I have still to get round to buying)

Junior Mance: That Lovin' Feelin'

This is a good* pairing of two of Junior's weakest LPs. I quite like it, but then, I like Ray Bryant's "Hollywood with a jazz beat" :D

(*Good in the sense that they weren't coupled with some really good stuff.)

Just back from the shops with

B000000JF5.01._SCMZZZZZZZ_.jpg

Rev J M Gates - Complete recorded works vol 7 - Mar 1929 - Apr 1930 These are the recordings that made Gates the best selling black artist of 1930.

Just ordered the last two Sonny Stitt - Don Patterson twofer CDs on Prestige that are missing in my collection: Soul People and Low Flame.

Low Flame is pretty much the best of the Patterson / Stitts I have, very integrated, some great Paul Weeden on the first half (which is a Jazzland LP iirc btw), Stitt sings on one tune.... :tup

Bud Shank: This Bud's for you (32jazz)

I never found the Shank, let me know how it is, whenever you come around playing it!

This is a very hot album!!!! burning alto all the way!

That's interesting. I'll try to get one. Where did you get them?

I got it from CDConnection or, you could try CDUniverse - not sure what the latter charges for shipping. CDConnection lists the label as Highnote Records btw.
