The Complete Muse Records of Pat Martino?

I think this is the case with some of the OJCs. Also got a few Soul Note and Black Saint albums that were actually CDRs. I did not return them as I saw it as my own (misreading) mistake but was pretty annoyed anyway

Thanks! Don’t think many people had the opportunity to compare.

It was pressed by King records and sounds amazing. You must have the original India Navigation Clifford? Does that one also has that sound like you’re there in the studios? The interaction between Chico and Cecil is lovely

So I was spinning 5X Monk 5X Lacy by Steve Lacy and Evan Parkers 'Snake Decides' and saw Joe McPhee's Tenor up for a reissue. It's probably an acquired taste and I have to be in a certain mood for it but if I am: I really like a solo saxophone record. My question to you guys: how do you feel about solo saxophone records and If you had to name that one favorite, what would it be. I'd give the ones who have difficulties picking one an expansion to a maximum of three records Thread is nog intented as a name as much as you know but trying to find out which ones everyone would pick if they really had to choose. For some inspiration the Free Jazz Collective made a nice list https://www.freejazzblog.org/2008/01/solo-sax_15.html

Such a beautiful record

RIP. He was great

Great news: Superior Viaduct is going to reissue The Willisau Concert, Tenor and Black Magic Man on vinyl!

I like Green. Not all of it, but quite some. Not so much into the organ stuff. My favorites would be Matador, Idle Moments, Feelin' the Spirit and Alive. I like his contributions as a sideman as well.

The total is 124km. We did something like 20/25km a day. It’s amazing!

Nice collections @HutchFan and @Teasing the Korean 😍 My storage solution comes from IKEA… I’d probably invest in something more beautiful some time but for now this is okay. This is my vinyl separated in two parts. So these are in the ‘music listening’ room or as my two boys call it ‘dads room’ it’s forbidden territory for my sons and for my wife if I am not around. I have some space left but its definitely limited in some aspect. Cds and boxed sets are in the living room. I sold quite some of the cds that I had as duplicate on LP. There was one closet that I have removed as 5 are enough for now. This collection probably won’t grow a lot anymore except for music that comes out exclusively on cd. Pretty funny I found both of these pictures that are from12 years ago when I was still livening with my parents. Don’t look at how I stored my vinyl back than, the horror! Music collecting has became a serious business ever since then :)

That’s one review on Amazon. You started your post with: from all the reviews which indicated there are a lot of negative reviews.

Awesome 🤩

Wondering where all those reviews are then?

There’s some spoken word on Billie Harper’s Blueprints of Jazz album by Amira Baraka I believe. Not a big fan of it.

As with a lot of Mosaics I already own all the material on cd or vinyl and not gonna spend 100+ euros for a few bonus tracks. Definitely a pass for me. Leaves me to say that the music is amazing. Bobby Hutcherson was pretty consistent this period in releasing top notch quality jazz music. I love all of these recordings

Congrats Soulpope!

on a hiking trip with my dad and brother in Scotland doing the Rob Roy Way. To all the Scotsmen on the board I’d like to say: what an amazing country you live in. The quietness, nature and space is breathtaking and is exactly what I miss in a densely populated country like the Netherlands.

It has Danny Mixon on piano and organ, Calvin Hill on bass and Greg Bandy on drums. It’s a Pharoah favorite being very groovy and accessible but also creative and original in sound. Pharoah didnt sound like an exact Coltrane copy yet but had his own thing.

I buy books but must say they are quite expensive. Philosphy is one of my big hobbies and I've bought quite some of the 'standards' from the genre for the past few years as I am teaching it in high school now as well. I managed to buy them trough my work which litteraly saved me thousands of euros.. With 40 or 50 euros a piece I could see why people go for an ebook instead. From a space in my house of point of view I have the same strategy as with my LP's and cd's: I only buy what I regard as essential. Less essential works I read on my e-reader. I love reading: it's part of my pre-sleeping ritual and try do read an hour a day at least. It's hard to get my students reading books. Video games are a serious threat to both their physical as their mental health. I might sound like a boomer now but I see the consequences everyday...

lovely live record and great sonics on this one!
