Seems like a lot of money to spend on a coaster, next time you could get a set of 4 regular coasters from Wal-Mart for like 2 bucks.

The other problem about Gene Harris is that it is frustrating from a dancing perspective: and not in the groove/vintage way, Reuben before you start typing away. Some albums can have nothing for dancing, while some others have just one gem, but that gem is so damn good that it makes the album worthwhile.

Very hit and miss, which is why I recommended starting with "the Best of the Concord Years."

Hence why you have to buy them all.. ;-)

I second or third the vote for The Best of the Concord Years double-cd set... highly dancable and a good collection to boot.
