Ah.
Honestly, it would be great to start dipping into the rich FANIA catalogue. Not sure if the "jazz" part would apply, if it was mentionned that it was latin "jazz". Boogaloo though, that's right in there.
Non-american FANIA artists: Johnny Pacheco (dominican), Celia Cruz (cuban), hector lavoe (puerto rican), bobby valentin (puerto rican), to name a few. There are also others born elsewhere but moved to the US at a young age, depending on how the definitions are stretched.

Oh? I thought July was supposed to be Blue Note Jazz.

any news on your record ? my shipping info must have just gotten updated and the record seems to have made it to FFM at least....
I could be mistaken.
Hi everyone!
I’m new here, and just thought I’d chime in with my July Classics guess. How about Cuban born percussionist Mongo Santamaria? He’s got a lot of pretty groovy records. You could argue that his 60’s stuff is more Latin Soul than Boogaloo, but that’s a hair splitting distinction.
Anyways, glad to be a part of this group. I read the forum a lot and started lurking around the old place after signing up for the Blossom Dearie record. - I’ve enjoyed all the piss and vinegar over VMP’s short comings, I must say. Keep up the good work, fellow Jazzbos! LOL

It has definitely become a low expectations type of situation with every shipment I get from them.
Not trying to push you out the door, but if you decide to liquidate I'd be interested purchasing Oriental Jazz and Muddy Waters if you have them.

Just an FYI - if @bjshawk1980 isn’t ready to part with his collection just yet, I do have a copy of partial Muddy Waters available. They mailed me two copies of Disc 2/no Disc 1 (AND two copies of the booklet).
Had it posted on the PIF thread on that “other” site. Doesn’t give you everything you want - but if you want the live album I’m happy to send it your way via PIF.

Right now tracking says it arrived in Frankfurt and has yet to clear customs.

Thank you, I appreciate the offer. I think I'd rather hold out for a full copy though
I don't understand these types of outlooks. Why would you sell everything? You got some killer records?
Yeah why do you suddenly want to sell everything? Don't do it. There are certainly records you love and you'll miss if you sell them. Sell the one you don't like and just kept for completionism purpose and keep the ones you really love.

I totally get not giving them any more money. I don't get selling albums you already have because of where they came from.
IF you do liquidate I would love to buy Pastor TL Barrett from you, if you have it!

My suggestions is give it a few months before making a decision, right now everything is still raw, you might change your mind/settle down some. After a few months if you feel the same way then go ahead.
Some people just need to make/take a fresh start, we may not make the same decision but I don't think we should tell people how to respond to something, maybe just caution them to make sure they are thinking it all the way through
