Annual/semiannual book purge is under way; a smallish one by my usual standard. The shelves are a burstin' and need some relief. Three banker's boxes full goin' out.

Is there a list we can check out, or are you just taking blind bids?

Naw, these are just going down the street to Half Price Books for cash-back/credit. Pretty sure there's nothing here for ya.
Let me know when the LPs go on the block. I'll fly out for a look.
Not sure what you're into but the rock stuff was mostly sold off a decade ago. Most of what's left is classical, jazz and some odds and ends.
We just had a nice jazz discussion here following my review of a massive Monk bio last week. Always big into odds and ends as well.
Odds and ends are like soundtracks, comedy, and some real oddballs. I have the "soul version" of Jesus Christ Superstar, for instance.
That would go great with my 1972 London Symphony Orchestra & chamber choir version of Tommy.
I read your review. Monk is my favorite, along with Jackie McLean, and Wes Montgomery. Jazz bios tend to be written the way you mention in the review -- and therefore tend to suck, so thanks for helping me avoid it.
