Sorry, I know it's lame, but I'm excited and I found them all used for pretty cheap online.

-Richard and Linda Thompson - I Want to See The Bright Lights

-John Coltrane - Transition

-Paulinho Da Viola - Serie Raizes Do Samba (an import collection of songs by a great MPB/Samba singer)

-Out & Out Jazz (A comp featuring out jazz artists including Joanne Brackeen, Paul Bley, Andrew Hill, and Sam Rivers)

-Joanne Brackeen - Invitation

Jazz on a Summer's Day - Soundtrack (from a film about the 1958 Newport Jazz Festival)

The Isley Brothers - 3+3 (I've been wanting their version of Summer Breeze)

Kingsbury Manx - Let You Down ($3, what the hey).

They're all coming from different sellers, so it'll be like Hannukah in October. Hooray!

I luv this album

Nice.

I love that Richard & Linda Thompson record.

A housemate played it over and over again until I loved it.

Rent 'Jazz On a Summer's Day' sometime -- it's great.

― Rickey Wright (Rrrickey), Wednesday, 13 October 2004 02:31 (twenty-one years ago)

I've seen it a couple times. It is great, sort of a proto-Woodstock.

The main reason I want the album is for that incredible Chico Hamilton performance. I think it's his only performance of "Blue Sands" available on CD. The Thelonious Monk, Gerry Mulligan, Louis Armstrong, and other stuff is also really good (is it Jimmy Giuffre that opens the film?)

― Hurting (Hurting), Wednesday, 13 October 2004 02:35 (twenty-one years ago)

Yeah, it's Giuffre. Really brilliant (and no drums, right?).

― Rickey Wright (Rrrickey), Wednesday, 13 October 2004 02:40 (twenty-one years ago)

True.

One of my favorite film moments ever is the cello player in the wife beater playing bach and smoking a cigarette.

the Richard + Linda is indeed an excellent album.

Today I bought Stars, 'Set Yourself On Fire' and Pat Metheny, 'New Chautauqua'.

Tell me about the Kingsbury Manx. I've always liked their covers.

Damn, shipping is fast these days. I've already received Transition, Kingsbury Manx, Jazz on a Summers Day, Out and Out Jazz, R+L Thompson, and Joanne Brackeen.

Too much to give everything a good listen yet, but I like everything. Sound quality is shitty on the JOSD soundtrack though -- sounds almost like it was dubbed from a record.

Transition is solid later Coltrane classic quartet. Strange that the album was titled "Transition" as though he knew it would be his transitional album into the later stuff.

Haven't given the Manx a good listen yet.

yeah, i love transition.
