OK boys, onward and upward. I'm loving the lists so far, good contributions from everyone, and lots of stuff I am going to investigate further.

I'll refrain from adding much commentary until my final ten (after all, how fucking special are you really if you can only manage the 35th best jazz record in history), but am happy to discuss further if there's any specific interest.

39) Art Pepper - Smack Up (1960)
38) Eric Dolphy - Far Cry (1960)
37) Anita O'Day - Anita Sings the Most (1957)
36) Miles Davis - Someday My Prince Will Come (1961)
35) Max Roach - Freedom Now Suite (1960)
34) Chet Baker - Chet in Paris (vols 1 - 4) (1955)
33) Lee Morgan - The Procrastinator (1967)
32) Joe Henderson - Mode For Joe (1966)
31) John Coltrane - Coltrane Jazz (1960)
30) Charles Mingus - Pithecanthropus Erectus (1957)

Ah, it's starting to heat up.
