| What can you recommend as a starter on CB especially with reference to his soloing? |

I have a couple Brown albums and really enjoy his playing, I'm going to recommend two that I don't have that I hope to get some day that the critics are big on; "Jordu" for the first part of his career and "At Basin Street" for the latter part. There are also many good compilations such as the "Complete Blue Note - Pacific"

I have three on Emarcy(Verve), Clifford Brown and Max Roach, Study In Brown and Brown and Roach inc., all good
Also recommend Sarah Vaughan ( self titled), great album and also Helen Merrill another good one but I do prefer Sarah Vaughan's one with Cliff
But there is one (actually 2 albums) that you should get for great live solos from him plus the rest of the band too and is actually a bloody Jazz classic in its truest form

| I also think that At Basin Street is good. Memorial Album is also popular in Japan where I live. |
