Jimmy Smith - Cool Blues (:blush: my first JOS record)

That was my first one too! I still think its the finest music I've heard from him.

it definitely sounds like a great place to start!

charles earland-funk fantastique

johnny hammond smith-soul flowers

gene ammons-fine and mellow

takin' advantage of the j and r concord sale.

g_d i dislike funk fantastique compared to intensity. fine and mellow is pretty boring too and i really enjoy one of the two albums comprising it which i have on LP. the other is kinda dull. the smith is a keeper i guess...fun. but the other two will be saying hello to the sell pile ASAP.

right funk fantastique has i guess like outtakes from the intensity material plus some bad tracks from charles III.

i really like soul story. would be nice to see that reissued. guess it isn't a possibility.

No; "Charles III" had a couple of tracks from the "Intensity sessions" that weren't on the original LP plus new material. The "Intensity" tracks originally issued on "Charles III" were issued on CD on the "Intensity" CD OJC. "Funk fantastique" has the original mix of "Morgan" (ie "Morgan" is a slightly shorter remix of "Funk fantastique"), an alternative take of "Speedball" and a previously unissued cut "Grab hole a dis" all from the "Morgan" session; two previously unissued cuts from "Soul story" (which could have augmented a CD issue of that LP - so it's clear that won't come out); and the other (non "Intensity") material originally issued on "Charles III".

That means that everything Charles recorded for Prestige has come out on CD except for what was on the LP "Soul story", and the tracks from "Kharma" and "Leaving this planet", which were shortened to make the albums fit onto 1 CD.

well the other soul story stuff has some hot jams. that's a shame.

i mean the version of the theme song to love story is probably done best on soul story...and i don't like that song. this is a cool version. a slow jam. but funky.

This one turned up today – Oumou Dioubate – Tele bana

I missed this one and only found out about it a week or so ago, when I was researching Oumou’s discography! Good old Nick Dean and his endless old stock! I now have the complete recorded works of Oumou Dioubate!

A good batch! I reckon the Anna King is the greatest Soul album ever made.

Where did you get the Larkin? I've been looking for a long time (in my usual desultory manner).
