This is a set of albums that, as a collector, I have not been able to find
for two years or more. Can anybody help out there on the net? If you have
these LPs (and are willing to sell/trade) or if you know stores that might
have them, PLEASE let me know. I travel fairly often to, or have contacts
in, Chicago, Los Angeles, Boston and Washington. I live in the NYC area.
I will also do mail order business. Re-issues are fine, it's the music I
want. However, the record should be in no less than very good shape. So
without further ado:
Ornette Coleman - To whom who keeps a record (Atlantic Japan)
Ida Cox - Hard Time Blues (Fontana - this is the European release label)
Duke Ellington - The Ellington Era Volume 1, 1927-1940 (Columbia France)
Milt Hinton - Here Swings the Judge (Famous Door, with Ben Webster)
Johnny Hodges - Cue for Saxophone (Vocalion, with Billy Strayhorn)
Charles Mingus - Stormy Weather (Candid)
[There is also an LP whose name I don't know, with music by Mingus and poetry
by Langston Hughes]
Oliver Nelson - A Dream Deferred (Flying Dutchman)
Cecil Taylor - Spring of Two Blue Jays (Unit Core)
Charles Tolliver - Live at Slugs Volume *2* (Strata East)

Ray Charles - Ray Charles and Betty Carter (ABC); also The Greatest (ATlantic)
King Curtis - Live at Fillmore West (Atco)
Bo Diddley - Have Guitar will Travel
Dr John - Gris Gris; also Gumbo (both Atco)
Fats Domino - Cooking with Fats (Imperial)
Slim Harpo - He Knew the Blues (there are 3 LPs with that name. I want the
one with "King Bee")

Lightnin' Hopkins - The Rooster Crowed in England
Mahalia Jackson - 1911- 1972
