I have heard great things about Boneyard Shuffle. I own (though not from Hep) The Complete Brunswick/Okeh Recordings and Smoke Rings and they both are awesome.

I got it for 10$ brand new at A&B Sound here in BC. I think they still have a couple copies in too if people want me to buy and mail them a copy. Let me know.

Henry "Red" Allen - 1929-1930 [JSP] Not a Classics album as the name of the album would suggest. Haven't given this album a listen yet. It's not half bad. I got it through E-Music back in the day and I just started listening to it the other day and there's some great stuff on there. Harri...

My 3 Essential Count Basie cds from Columbia. I listen to them ALL the time because the music is just amazing and always forget to dj them.

Though I almost never DJ off of it just because it ain't my thing, one CD that would be more modern and danceable is Blues in Orbit by Duke Ellington. Those who are into the more modern stuff for DJing and Dancing would probably really enjoy this cd.

I'm a big fan of Ellington's stuff when it comes to the really slow and grindy music. And when I say Ellington, I mean old school Ellington. Check out his Small Groups collections, there's some amazing stuff in there.
