If you could have only one Satchmo
Do you dabble in several genres? Do you have a couple Miles Davis and Coltrane titles in the jazz section of your collection? Do you have a turntable?
I just received Classic Records' 45 Series special two-sided pressing of Satchmo Plays King Oliver w/St. James Infirmary and I Ain't Got Nobody and WOW does it blow my socks off. I think the whole album is like $50.00 and now I wish I had gotten it. I highly recommend this special two-sided pressing (for around $13), especially for those who dabble in jazz but prefer some other genre.
I sat my wife down and had her listen to St. James Infirmary and when it was over she exhaled like she had been holding her breath the whole time. I usually don't bother her with my music.
