Hi i think a couple are missing

Ben Webster Live at the Renaisance

Red Norvo Quintet The foreward look,  this was Keith Johnsons first recording 

happy lisining 

Ahmad’s Blues - Ahmad Jamal’s unbelievable performance and trio captured at the Pershing in Chicago with the clinking of cocktail glasses ushering in the sound that changed Miles Davis and all of jazz. In the expanded editions it featured his recording of poinciana which was a chart topping hit!

I second the Chick Corea Trilogy series (both 1 and 2). Also, if you Chicks’s Trilogy, the “Chick Corea Akoustic Band Live” is equally outstanding. 
 

For those that like Miles Davis’ Live-Evil, “The Cellar Door Sessions” 5-CD box set will give you all the shows that Live-Evil was culled from. Might be hard to find now.

I don’t know if anyone responded to your comment “I haven't heard any live Harrell recordings. Have you?”  ….Tom has a “Live At The Village Vanguard” recording which is very good. Also, there is a DVD release of Horace Silver’s band playing somewhere in Europe with a younger Tom on trumpet.
