Got a few jazz albums under the tree.

Roscoe Mitchell Sextet - Sound


Mal Waldron - The Quest


Alain Caron (le Band) - "play" 


I asked for the Alain Caron because I'd previously bought a transcription book of it in a bargain bin, so I might as well own the album too. Big smile

Nice album with early Dolphy works, it's interesting that seven years later it was already released as Dolphy album

It's my first Mal Waldron album.  I usually branch out my jazz collection by going with other albums that artists I like (in this case Dolphy, Booker Ervin and Ron Carter) perform on.

Found a used copy of Miles "Relaxin'" at my local shop for $3 the other day.

Otherwise, I've been picking up a bunch of Zappa albums lately.

Actually, I haven't got around to it. Embarrassed

I'll squeeze it in tonight.  The weird thing is that I'd seen that record several times before in years past, but I never noticed that there was someone behind him with a bubblemaker until I grabbed it off a stack of records yesterday.  It makes the standard photo album cover look very odd to me now. LOL

I'm almost done listening to it now.  My first impression is that I can see why fans of his would be upset seeing as this followed School Days.  Modern Man is a mainly vocal album, but there are a few interesting musical themes and instrumentals.  Not a whole lot about it jumps out so far, but it's far from horrid.  Just a bit unmemorable.  I'd take the first Clarke/Duke Project album over this if you want something in his discography with vocals.

Made the mistake of wandering into a record/CD shop the other night, so much to choose from, decided to go with some much needed classics.

On CD - "Bird and Diz"

On vinyl -  Sun Ra   "Monorails and Satellites"    
"Bird at St Nicks"    (terrible sound quality)
