I can list very many Lp's from my collection, but the one that comes to mind is "String Band featuring Isao Suzuki" -with Hank Jones, Ron Carter, Roy Hanes and string quartet. Japanese Flying Disk/Direct Disk. Music and sonics are incredible.
Most Holy Grail Blue Notes have been reissued on vinyl but I have yet to hear one as good as an orginal - it usually is not even close. Here is a partial list of originals that I consider to be holy grails:
1514 Jimmy Smith Vol 2 the Champ 1518 Horace Silver & Jazz Messengers 1521-22 Art Blakey Night at Birdland 1&2 1527 Magnificent Thad Jones 1577 John Coltrane Blue Train 1581 Sonny Rollins - Night at the Village Vanguard 1595 Cannonball Adderly- Somethin' Else 4011 Jimmy Smith the Sermon 4017 Horace Silver Blowin' the Blues Away 4031 Hank Mobley Soul Station 4058 Hank Mobley Roll Call 4106 Jackie McLean Let Freedom Ring 4117 Jimmy Smith Back at the Chicken Shack 4163 Eric Dolphy Out to Lunch 4175 Herbie Hancock Empyrean Isles 4185 Horace Silver Song for My Father 4195 Herbie Hancock Maiden Voyage
