Well damn. Before the end of side 1 I noticed that the music was sounding lifeless. Started out good. Went to my #1 system and all is well. I hope the evg stylus on my m93 just has a glob of junk on it. Not gonna mess with it tonight.Illinois Jacquet- Genius at Work! Recorded at Ronnie Scott Club London on Black Lion in 1971.

Bill I did not know who Dudley Moore was. You Tube showed me how good a pianist he was
I'm a little slow. Dudley Moore the pianist is Dudley Moore the actor/comedian.This clip is so funny...

Don't you hate that? But this has a good side, you get to go look for more musicBought this tonight on vinyl. But it's warped. Gonna return it tomorrow. Looks like I will make do with Spotify.
Yes I do. Seems way to common these days, but that's a whole other discussion.Don't you hate that? But this has a good side, you get to go look for more music
You should see his stuff when he was part of 'Beyond the Fringe' in the early 60's. If it weren't for them, there would have been no Monty Python. I'll never forget the bit where he played a one-legged man auditioning with Peter Cook for the role of Tarzan. Then later I saw him play a concert at the Hollywood Bowl and was like.. whoa..What??. Quite a talented man.I'm a little slow. Dudley Moore the pianist is Dudley Moore the actor/comedian.
Rasputins Modesto had a ton of Nina Simone also. They also had 1 Lee Morgan, Jimmy Smith- Back to the Chicken Shack and I can't remember what else. Lots of artists name dividers but not much vinyl. Back on Record Store Day they were stocked up. Hope they are selling but I suspect they are having trouble with distributors. Lots of Rock titles though. At least 30 blues titles in stock. On checkout I asked if they carried MoFi inner sleeves. Nope, but she said she would bring in some poly-lined sleeves for me to look at. Next time I'll ask about reordering the Jazz titles.Yes I do. Seems way to common these days, but that's a whole other discussion.
But yes you are correct. The vinyl jazz is slim aside from this and who ever ordered every Nina Simone album on the planet. Literally. Half the jazz records where Nina Simone. Very frustrating. But I will find something else. I always do. On a good note the limited edition Lightning Hopkins album was perfect.
