wynton is great on the Miles Davis stuff, obviously, but also on a bunch of Hank Mobley Blue Note dates ...

yeah, Jordan gave me the Hank Mobley tip. Never heard him. Man, there's a lot of stuff out there.
I also picked up the Charlie Rouse Bossanova Bacchanal which is also good but the last song that was tacked on (a straight jazz tune not from the Bossanova sessions apparently) is a real stunner. I'm gathering he never did anything else as a bank leader besides that song which is a real shame.

The new Joshua Redman album, Compass is pretty damn good. Between this and 2007's Back East, he's on a sort of mini-roll. The new one features him as the sole horn, fronting bassists Larry Grenadier and Reuben Rogers and drummers Brian Blade and Gregory Hutchinson. A few tracks feature a straight saxophone trio (Grenadier/Blade or Rogers/Hutchinson), others feature both bass players and one of the drummers, and a couple feature all five musicians at once. Coming out on Nonesuch next month; at 13 tracks in 72 minutes, it's about five tracks and 25 minutes too long, but I can't honestly say which ones I'd cut, so: recommended.

Maybe somebody should start a new thread. I tried to find a title here but couldn't pick one: http://thebadplus.typepad.com/dothemath/2008/12/steve-lacy-on-monk.html
