Whats on your turntable tonight?

West Coast Blues by the Harold Land Sextet (listening to VIJ-4080, which is a Japanese pressing of JLP 20)

On deck is Sonny Rollins' Way Out West (CR S 7530), followed by a Japanese pressing of Chet Baker's 'It Could Happen To You' (VIJ-4068), then Porgy and Bess by Sammy Davis Jr and Carmen McRae (VIM-5590).

And spinning now is 'Friday Night in San Francisco' by John, Paco, and Al. I love this record!

Hello Troll from the Helge Lien Trio - this is Jazz at its best recorded by the ingenious Eric Kongshaug in his Oslo Rainbow Studios

best & fun only

Mendelssohn, A Midsummer's Night Dream, Maag/LSO, London/Decca (ORG 45rpm reissue) - this is a marvelous performance and an excellent recording. Great reissue!

Elvin Jones, Puttin' It Together, Blue Note BNLP4282-45 (Music Matters reissue)

Miles Davis: Live Evil

What a great album, and the japanese pressing is brilliant.
