Fleischhammer told he had to put the stock of his former distributor on sellout when this partnership ended. Maybe the Gullin was among them. It is the retailer who decides to put an album in the sales bin. He has to be careful not to risk his savings for retirement. Sonorama is not his only source of income and he puts out what he likes and considers overlooked and worth hearing. He has good connections to some radio archive people. I will pass this on.

Bout Soul seems to have a bad rep. I never understood why as I like it very much.

Does Jazz Messengers even ship to the US now?

I've always thought the record with Ornette should be better known and more acclaimed. But it would have been nice if Ornette had played at least some alto on the album.
