Rather than clog up the Black Friday thread with my jazz nonsense, I thought I would post here. I went through the list and picked out the jazz related releases (I may have missed a few) and cross checked them with Rough Trade's website to see prices etc. The majority look to be mid to high £20 mark (which I suppose is to be expected). My plan is basically to get to rough trade mid-day during my lunch break and see whats there. Im also going to the Blue Note pop-up at the end of the day, so I might wait until then and pop over to the Soho record shops.
Bill Evans - Live at Art D’lugoff’s (heafty at £39 but its an amazing session and the resale of the 2012 box set is more than double the price)
The Comet is Coming - Afterlife
Herbie Hancock - Directstep
Miles Davis - Miles In Tokyo: Miles Davis Live In Concert
Miles Davis - Early Minor: Rare Miles From The Complete In A Silent Way Sessions
Thad Jones / Mel Lewis - All My Yesterdays: The Debut 1966 Recordings at The Village Vanguard (at £65 this is going to be a hard pass unfortuanately)
Chet Baker - Chet Baker Sings It Could Happen To You (plagued by grey label reissues. This is a limited pressing, not on the top of my list but if all the others are unavailable I will consider this....assuming Im able to get my hands on it)
The Magnificent Charlie Parker - Charlie Parker (yellow vinyl)
Cecil Taylor - Indent (another pricy one at £30 on white vinyl. Worth noting that the first press is available for less than this on 'cogs).
Ow! Live At The Penthouse - Johnny Griffin - Eddie "Lockjaw" Davis Quintet (RSD pricing at its finest...£55 for this 2lp set. Unreleased but surely not worth that kind of money IMO)
Are you guys after anything specific? My main aims are The Comet Is Coming, Herbie Hancock, Bill Evans (still kicking myself for missing the Live In England). Im intrigued by the 2 Miles as well, especially the Tokyo, but if I want to eat this month I will have to be VERY selective.
