I got the BASH as dutch reissue ( FONTANA ) in M- condition from the early sixites with alternate cover -> it´s called MODERN MAINSTREAM. But what music… one of my favorites OSMOSIS ! Dave Bailey plays so cool, easy, laid back : He´s the best in jazz !

Popsike lists two Jazz at J.J.’s sets going for around $100, and a volume two (!) going for a bit more, around $300. Curious to hear this as probably most of us are.

That Dave Bailey on Jazz Line is really cool looking – I’ve wanted a copy for quite some time but it’s usually either quite expensive or quite trashed.

Joe L — yes, I received a press release about that and almost went, but I wasn’t in New York that weekend. Did anybody here go?

Milt Hinton’s estate was just recently auctioned off; this must be from that sale.

Every time when Fred puts these super rare acetates or gems like this “Jazz at JJ’s” box online (I vividly remember a few Dizzy Gillespie acetates he once had on eBay), I think two things. 1st: I can’t afford them. 2nd: I truly hope that those recordings will once be digitized and shared with other jazz fanatics, ’cause if they end up in a collection without ever having been digitized, they will probably slide into oblivion. A horrible thought.
