@Mizmazzle what's your next target\s?

J-IV

Today's playlist before the big game. Needed some energy!

Mizmazzle

@GraemeE listening not to Blue Train. Incredible!!

There’s a couple Grant Green albums as well as Bobby Hutcherson albums I’d like to grab soon.

Stylistically, I love the music on Somethin’ Else. Cannonball Adderly is someone I’d like to explore more. Any recommendations in that vein?

GraemeE

@Mizmazzle earlier cannonball I like sharpshooter and bohemia

If you can hang with him into the 70s black messiah amd Phoenix have some jams

Mizmazzle

@J-IV damn. Some players on that Sonny Rollins album. Gonna have to dial that one up for a listen soon!

@GraemeE thanks bro! I’m going to go down that path for sure. Having a lot of fun digging into the genre. I know it goes as deep as one can ever dream.

Mizmazzle

Any other Sleeve City devotees out there? Almost every album I own goes straight into a deluxe inner and outer after it gets a cleaning.

Also these hit the porch today!! Great day in records at the Mizmaz house. Thanks again for the heads up @Aetas

@Mizmazzle closest to that Adderly album is Miles Davis Kind of Blue but I assume you’ve heard that.

Coltrane Giant Steps, Bill Evans Trio Sunday at the Village Vanguard and Waltz for Debby might be up your alley too @Mizmazzle

I know ive beat this horse before but this album feels like it belongs in any well rounded jazz collection even though it's contemporary

On top of McLains reccs, I'd also peep Shelly Manne and his Men at the Blackhawk. He has a handful of them recorded. Similar swing and groove that Cannonball had on that album. Plus they're live albums - live jazz is undefeated @Mizmazzle

Mizmazzle

Thanks @GraemeE and @mclaincausey and @J-IV
These are all great suggestions. I’m going to start working my way through them on Spotify and then look for great pressings of the ones that hit the sweet spot.

Mizmazzle

@mclaincausey yup! I know it’s the most sold jazz album of all time…for good reason. I love that one for sure!

mclaincausey

@Mizmazzle almost the same lineup and period, hence the similarity

Mizmazzle

@J-IV listened to the Shelly Manne on the way to work this am. LOVE IT! Gonna hunt a copy of this one down for sure!!

@Mizmazzle where do you look for great pressings? This weekend, I went through the entire catalog at rarerecords.net after @Kasi told us about how good Japanese pressings are. It's a nice site. Wondering if there are other places to get the good stuff for decent prices.
