As a person who loves Jazz all I can say is that "you did real good", believe that. That collection reminds me of a friend of mine who you would go to his house on Friday afternoon and leave Saturday night and the only reason you went home was to get something to eat and change clothes. Those were the days 👍👍😄

Moanin' is one of my favorite jazz albums of all time. In a way it's kind of sad that it was never played, esp. if it's just a repress. Very nice haul!

Wow dude, that’s the coolest haul ever! I’m opening a record store on the Oregon coast in April I would be over the moon with a collection like that. Jazz is my favorite, what a cool thing to be able to have that stuff in a local record store. Nice work 👍👍👍

Amazing

I don’t get jazz music and never will but I still recognize a great haul.  I’m also with you on the keeping things sealed, music is made to be listened to, not to be purchased and put on a shelf.

I love seeing hauls like this--just choice finds. Amazing.

A few months ago I lucked into a small collection on Facebook marketplace and the small jazz amongst boxes of Ferrante & Teicher and musical LP's (My Fair Lady, anyone?) absolutely still make me feel tickled. Original copies of:

Gabor Szabo - Dreams
Coltrane - My Favorite Things (Mono)
Miles Davis - Round About Midnight
Miles Davis - Someday My Prince Will Come
Horace Silver - Blowin' The Blues Away
Ike Quebec - Blue & Sentimental

There was more in there that I still cherish. Something I try and do with every collection (particularly if it's from someone who passed away) is learn the stories behind the records. The guy I bought from was a widower and husband was a cop who passed away from cancer after cleaning up debris after 9/11. His partner wanted to pass the music on to someone who would appreciate the records and really play them. We don't always get in the chance to learn these stories (I don't ask thrift stores to tell me the stories of the records, of course), but it helps to remind me that these records are carrying even more than just they music they hold within them.

Watching you gush so hard over jazz records does wonders for my soul daddio!

Bud I am so happy for you that you were able to add some major ones to your collection. I remember the story about the Saxophone Colossus. Even though they are not mine it makes me smile to see a friend be blessed. CONGRATS MY FRIEND!

Thank you friend !!!

WOW!!! amazing.

Those Miles records in the shrink! Water Babies, Big Fun. Wild!!

Very very nice collection

Oh, man. What an amazing haul.

That drum solo on "This I Dig of You" is straight fire!!!!!

I hope to one day sit with that much awesome jazz vinyl. You're a lucky man.

Killer collection and that’s awesome how close it was to you! Definitely pays to get to know people! Those locals are going to have a treasure trove to dig through! You definitely don’t see this kind of jazz heat in such exceptional condition as much today!

Brilliant collection wow

You are the coolest and very diverse in your musical tastes. Soon as you show the album, I go right to Apple Music and listen! Thank you! 😊

I love your enthusiasm. Amazing stuff making me drool. Keep it up brother

You're gonna need a  whole Holy Moly store
