Thad Jones - Detroit-New York Junction

Recently got the UA pressing with an autograph from an auction for $85.

Not among my most played albums in the collection. But it just happended that I came across each copy in a great condition and at a good price that I can't pass.

I got my first copy back in 2021, Classic Records pressing in prestine condition at ¥4,320 ($38 at the time). Defintely a buy.

After that, Japan mono replica (again NM/NM) from a local seller at 2,000 baht ($60), i took it.

And 2 recent pressing, the blue note detroit series with third man and bluenote exclusive pressing at retail.

Hopefully, next one us Lexington at cheap 😃

A former owner of the Horace Silver record I’m listening to now left return address labels on the sleeve

So I googled him. He passed away in 2003. I wonder the journey this record took to get to me.

Rest in peace Mr. Edwards - I am loving your record!

Jazz Album Recommendations for Warm Summer Nights

Hi everyone,

I’m looking for some great jazz album recommendations that are perfect for warm or hot summer nights. Specifically, I’m interested in albums that create a relaxed and vibey atmosphere, ideal for unwinding and enjoying the night. What are your go-to albums for these kinds of evenings, and what makes them so special?

I’d love to hear about the albums that you think capture that magical, soothing feeling of a summer night. Thanks in advance for your suggestions! :)

Lester Bowie - The Great Pretender

I’m always on the lookout for new ECM records. Today, I found this Lester Bowie record at a local shop. Fans of The Art Ensemble of Chicago would enjoy this one. It’s also got a cool album cover!

Bill Evans Trio - Sunday At the Village Vanguard

hey everyone, I just got this reissue today by Glamourama records but I have no idea who they r nor how it sounds like… It was more of an impulse purchase but now I’m wondering if anyone knows anything about it… I won’t be able to play it for a couple months to know myself so in the meantime I would love to hear some reviews!

Discogs Blue Note pressing discussion - To merge or not to merge

I'm finding this thread pretty interesting. A while back I added an entry for Introducing Kenny Burrell (and posted HERE about it) and there is a request to merge. The differences I found were

  • one has flat edge, is heavier/more brittle and a full P stamp in runouts
  • the other not flat edge, lighter/more flexible material and had what looked like two partial P stamps.

Some interesting viewpoints if anyone cares to add their views or follow the discussion.

Now Spinning: City Lights by Lee Morgan

Beautiful Japanese pressing from '84. Sounds great for a nearly 40 year old record.

I have this sub to thank for putting me on to this record!

The other day someone posted their copy of the Heath Brothers Marchin on which has always been a “grail” for me. I own a mediocre re issue of it but the OG’s feel a little out of my reach atm. Someone in the comments of that thread suggested this pressing of the Heath Brothers live performance in Paris in 76 (during which they play the famous smilin Billy suite) with Stanley Cowell on keys and I found one of the last ones available in Canada being sold in Ottawa and ordered it immediately. It just arrived today and I haven’t even cracked it and listened to it yet but I’m really excited. Everything I’ve read about this record is really good and I’m not also onto SAM records which seems to do things proper when it comes to pressing a record like this. I will come back to comment my review once I’ve given it a good listen but wanted to share this and thank the person who suggested it. Really happy to own this Heath bro’s record!

A little bit of manageable surface noise here and there, but finally crossed this off of my want list.
