Of all the #jazz melodies that I'm familiar with, "Warm Canto" by #MalWaldron (featuring #BookerErvin and #EricDolphy) is one to which I keep returning. I love its combination of structure and freedom. www.youtube.com/watch?v=jyvy...

Randy Weston – African Cookbook (1972 Atlantic reissue of 1966’s Randy!)
VG cover (sticker scar), VG+ vinyl. Snagged it cheap for my Booker Ervin stack. 🔥
Would love to find the OG mono Bakton — gritty, smoky, rare.
If you’ve got one, post it!

Andrew Hill’s “Grass Roots” blends groove and complexity with bold solos and rich harmonies. A perfect balance of innovation and connection, it’s a must-hear for #jazz lovers seeking depth and soul. #AndrewHill #BlueNoteRecords #LeeMorgan #RonCarter #BookerErvin #FreddieWaits #JazzSky

Bargyn Bin Booker - found this 1967 Booker Ervin gem last week and it is so very good! Sure, the cover is messy and the well loved vinyl is not picture perfect but it plays fine. I've never seen this anywhere so for 3bux it's a great starter copy!
