Hi Mat,
Perhaps more than SR the two who really appealed to me on the referenced albums were Clifford Brown and JJJ.
But now we're talking SR I have just switched to my iTunes folder ( would you believe almost 13,000 tracks) on which I have 2 other SR CDs "SR Jazz Profiles" and "Tenor Titan" Now listening to "Tenor Titan"

13,000 tracks? That's a nice collection you've got there, John. I've got something close to 8,000 track (of jazz, of course). How's the technology working out for you? iTunes and your iPod? I also remember you had some issues with your PC. Hope it's all solved by now?

Hi gord. I have never listened to Johnny Griffin. I'll check him out on you tube, though. Enjoy!

You know what gord, I just realized after clicking Griffin on you tube and seeing this song {"Smokestack"} that I had in fact heard him playing on this tune with Coltrane on the album trane's blues. I intend to listen to this and some of his other work later on today. Thanx again for the heads up!

Hi Mat,
Back to April 3 and your post,
Yes thanks,my problems seem to be resolved with regard to the PC. (fingers crossed).

Hi man, you'l be the first to know, I have just downloaded 2 new CDs.
One by Jon-Erik Kellso and the other by Bob Wilber.
(go to the appropriate thread).
I have been listening to the 2 CDs referred above.
Cheers John

One to watch out for, last.fm is just now serving up Limehouse Blues for me with André Previn, Joe Pass and Ray Brown. Rather laid back and lopes along wonderfully well. Interaction between Previn and Pass is delightful and Ray Brown keeps things ticking over.
From an Album called After Hours, Amazon samples here:

today i listened to cecil taylor octet-jumpin punkins-candid (lp)
this could be the most weird album i have. a mixture of different styles.
the sidemen,clark terry,archie shepp,steve lacy,billy higgins. there is hardbop,modern jazz,mainstream jazz and taylor. at first i did not like it, but half way through, it started to grow on me. now i find very good. some of you will probably hate this. gord
