with 2800+ Jazz titles on my spread-sheet I think a few of 'em might be non-novelty. Of course, there's some others might wonder why I keep. but if it's good, it's good.One name that aways comes to mind when I think of the "oddballs" and questionables is Jonah Jones. I have gone through 3 major culls in the past 5 years or so and during the first one I pulled out a couple of his LPs to see if I should bother keeping him. I kept all that I had...quite a solid player!
But, then there's rarities like deep groove Blue Notes, Emarcy and Riverside. So there are a few non-novely LPs in amongst what used to have a bit of lard and has, through those 3 culls, been trimmed down, tightened up, and now has abs and buns of steel.
Is it "the best damned collection" in the world...hell no! Am I proud of what I have found? This non-ending diatribe probably proves that.
But one has to keep Jazz LPs like Crown LPs' "Jazz Masquerade" "Who's playing? It could be Charlie Parker... Do we hear Erroll Garner and Stan Getz?" Now THAT is a novelty Jazz LP!
****
If I had more money I'd soon be broke...but I'd have more LPs!
