 Nice find, I was listening to Hamp the other night. Really like the tone of his vibes, particularly on the Columbia 6-eyed label.

 my dad had that one when i was a boy, would like to find again. i sifted through 2 bins of crap at the goodwill last weekend to find one album. Paul Winter Sextet; Folk meets Jazz on Columbia from 1963, did not even have a jacket on it so I borrowed one. needed a deep clean but sounded great, 50 cents. its out there, you just have to find it.

 You hit a gem...but they are almost non-existent lately.

 Looked inside and the record was broken. Big disappointment, as this looked like an interesting recording. I've been a fan since hearing the Benny Goodman 1938 Concert at Carnegie Hall.

I did buy the 5-CD set "The Complete Lionel Hampton Quartets and Quintets with Oscar Peterson On Verve". Nice stuff, Buddy Rich, Ray Brown bass and Illinois Jacquet also on there. Just listening to a stomping 17:10 version of "Flying Home" on Disk 3.

My favorite Hampton piece is "I Got Rhythm", from "The Essential Gene Krupa" on Verve (Lionel, Gene Krupa drums, Teddy Wilson on piano). He manages to bend vibe notes, I swear, somehow, and takes it on a wild galloping pace that is simply exhuberant. I've never found out what LP the original is from, but it appears it might be from an unreleased until recently session now on CD (link below).
