good luck and hope to see this project completed.
Thanks Green!
All linked up,
except ....
Could I check that the link for "Charles Kynard-Legends of Acid Jazz" is http://rapidshare.com/files/193601304/Afro-Disiac___Wa-Tu-Wa-Zui__Beautiful_People_.zip
?
... and i linked up :
1964 - Donald Byrd - I'm Tryin' to Get Home
and
1961 - Horace Parlan - Up and Down
... and linked up "nigeria" and moved it to 1962
Hey Simon666
I apologize for any confusion the filename may have caused. i guess i should've changed it but i wasn't thinking. Legends of Acid Jazz-Charles Kynard has 11 tracks and track #1-6 were originally released as Afro-Disiac (Prestige 7796) and #7-11 as Wa-Tu-Wa-Zui (Prestige 10008) so that's where the strange filename comes from.
Got it, all linked up now, thanks again Green!
amazing!!!!

Grant Green - Easy - 1978
http://funkydisposition.wordpress.com/2009/03/02/grant-green-easy-1978-320/
Amazing work Pretoria!
Only one album left now ...
Thanks!
Hey Simon666 and SelfScience-
Just wanna let you know that You do already have all the albums that are released as his leader albums (for now). As far as I know, Easy = The Last Session. Also, just in case you didn't know, Gooden's Corner, Nigeria, Oleo are included in The Complete Quartets with Sonny Clark, Remembering = Standards, ect. So technically, pretoria's Easy was the last one.
@pretoria
You're blog is AWESOME!!!!!!!!!!!
Thanks Green -
I've fixed up the discography according to what you've said.
Are there any other "double ups" here?
Also, I've (gulp) done eighteen re-links because of the move to Wordpress by My Favourite Sound and Funky Disposition ....
So, complete leader discography!
Congrats to all who took part.
1972 - The Battle Parts I & II (BN 45-1972) is from the Final Comedown. It's a part of Blue Note 1900 series (7inch) and there are also I Want to Hold Your Hand/Corcovado (BN 45-1919), Ain't It Funky Now Parts I & II (BN 45-1960), Sookie Sookie/Time To Remember(BN 45-1965),Does Anybody Really Know What Time It Is?/Never Can Say Goodbye (BN 45-1969), Afro Party/Father's Lament (BN 45-1983). But I don't think you need to list them here since it's all included in the albums.
I cannot thank you enough Simon666. I'm just starting to realize what an important role you play in this community. You are definitely one of the hardest workers I know. My hats off to you sir, for your dedication!
Thanks Green, appreciated :)
And you've done a lot of work on this one too!
Anyway :
New links in sideman discograohy :
1966 - Art Blakey - Hold on, I'm Coming
