Captain, as always, a very informative and enjoyable segment. You grabbed some excellent selections. Once you have had an opportunity to listen to those that still remain in the shrink, please share your thoughts with us. I was able to land 3 Record Store recordings. They are, Mal Waldron/Steve Lacy, Bill Evans and the Shelly Manne. Happy listening!
I love that Bill Evans repressing. I haven't been able to find an original so I'm going to purchase this one at some point too. That Cannonball is amazing too! They are all solid albums.
Thanks for your comment 🙂 It is a great BE-reissue: Great sounding, flat, noise-free etc. - one can buy this with confidence. The interplay between the 3 musicians is good - though it's even better at "Sunday at the Village Vanguard" (and the others w. Scott LaFaro). The Cannonball albums are great too. With Miles at "Kind of Blue", Cannonball is the calm and "polite" sax-player - compared to Coltrane. But here (app. 10 years later) his playing is in some places more "wild" - but not over the edge though. Good luck collecting 👍
Good to hear - I'm still not back in my music room.... But tomorrow 😀 I have a few of the "Dexter in Radioland" records and like them too. I'll look for the rest - the Danish Broadcasting Company (who recorded them) normally knew what they were doing. Thanks for your comment 👍
Ja - de havde et fint udvalg. Jeg var temmelig og positivt overrasket 🙂 Udvalget i de københavnske butikker er jo større - men køerne er også længere...
read an interview where jack Sheldon said , that, after he got through playing in the tonight show band on TV, would go pick up Chet baker, when he was in town, and was always broke because he was a junkie, and then they would cruise the various California beach towns , who all had a jazz club on Main Street back then, ask to sit in with the band, and use that as a way to pick up woman.
Great story ! I guess that it was both hard and at the same time full of possibilities to be a (jazz) musician back in the days. Read in "Time Remembered" (by Bill Evans' last drummer Joe LaBarbera) that towards the end, Evans had got alle three musicians payment in advance (to pay for his heavy cocaine misuse), so when they asked the club for payment after the show, they didn't get any...
Thanks Richie. Agree with you (and Mazzy) on the 2 x 45 rpm matter - but others seem to love the (often) minor acoustic advantage and accept that the original flow is broken up (Melinda, Chat Kassem and others). I enjoy your channel and your no-nonsens approach (though I might not dig the sometimes rather loud back ground music so much 😉)
Fantastic!
Thanks for sharing!

Thanks Tony - I’d had taken the Mal Waldron too, but it wasn’t there.
Looking forward to listen to them when I get back home later in the week 😊

I picked up the Bill Evans at the sale. Great sound and I like his intimacy in his playing.
Good to hear - I need to go home to my stereo… soon… 😊
I have that Dexter Gordon LP, and i really enjoy it. Been listening to his 7 LP Radioland / Steeplechase recordings and i love them.

Nice picks and video. Cheers from Germany Klaus
Thanks Klaus - greetings from another Claus 😅
Noams er en fin lille butik for os herude i provinsen. Selv kører jeg hvert år fra Møn til København til RSD. 😊
Ja - de havde et fint udvalg. Jeg var temmelig og positivt overrasket 🙂
Udvalget i de københavnske butikker er jo større - men køerne er også længere...
We have similar interests, I got the Cannonball Adderly, and the Bill Evan too. 🙂. I hope you will review them on your channel.
Great - I can't wait to get home to my music room and stereo.
Fun to find a small store where you are out of town. Enjoy all the music 😎
Thanks Mazzy - yes that store was a pleasant surprise 😊

Very nice - enjoy!
Thanks - can’t wait to get home to my stereo 😀
I’m not a fan of single albums released on two 45RPM records. Though I don’t listen to Jazz much any more I did enjoy your video.
Thanks Richie.
