  1. Great stuff!
  2. Anymore impressions by other boardmembers? This one keeps getting postponed here in Europe. Now the owner of the one and only Mal Waldron blog is one of the last people who cant listen to the new release. Life could be so unfair....
  3. Thanks I try not to stand on them…. These are all among my favorite jazz albums. We’re up for a second round of stomach flu here this year so plenty of time for music listening. Now spinning:
  4. Oh yes it is I think I am almost halfway now. They were all records I already had on cd but still wanted them on vinyl as that is now my format of preference. I want to have my 4,5 and 5 star albums on vinyl so that’s why one seller had so many of my wantlist probably as they are mostly classic albums. This was the haul:
  5. Both Alice Coltrane’s Ptah the El Daoud and Pharoah Sanders’ Black Unity never got a proper vinyl reissue. I don’t see what’s wrong in do giving that great music a reissue. It makes me a very happy man.
  6. I always loved the music of P&B and this is one of my favorite performances of it. So much subtle emotions from all the guys. Less is more is kinda cliche to say but this music is the proof of the fact that it is true that sometimes less really is more.
  7. There’s a piece of Africa in every single note on this record
  8. Fortunately there are two editions: the awful yellow version and normal reissue.
  9. Saw it on the Hoffman board. Will pick up Ptah The El Daoud and Pharoahs Black Unity. That one’s among my favorite Sanders. will definitely avoid the hideous yellow special editions. The horror!
  10. Yeah he played on Andrew!!! and Compulsion. Both very good albums.
  11. Yeah didn’t order anything for almost half a year as I don’t listen a lot of music during summer days (too hot in the music room ). Did set some money aside for a big order. As both vinyl prices and shipping costs are going trough the roof these days one big order seemed more wise and economical. I’ve ordered 30 LP’s from a Japanese seller. I calculated the total costs and it was 20 euros per LP including shipment, taxes etc. Very happy with it
  12. This is my favorite OP record by far. My father played it endlessly when I grew up and I could still hum every single note of it. More music from the 30 LP batch I got shipped from Japan. I love John Gilmore. Wish he had recorded more outside of the Arkestra.
  13. Have the cd as well
  14. Yeah he kicks ass here. As is the rest of the band by the way. Now spinning:
  15. Oh yes the album with Johnny Griffin (Full House) is just as great as this one. Wes and Wynton is a killer combination. About the Powell: I never got why Powells Verve stuff are generally hold in lower regard than the stuff on Blue Note. Especially this album (Jazz Giant) is among the best Bud I know. Now spinning:
  16. Wanted to wait first to see if this one would be selected for the Acoustic Sounds Series but don’t have that much patience. All those releases get postponed endlessly. This 1972 Japanese release sounds amazing.
  17. The Grant Green sounds amazing. Don’t know about the Burrell
  18. Including one of Pharoahs most iconic solos.
  19. Took me a while to really connect with the music but it’s almost my favorite Green date by now. Hancock’s playing is so subtle and beautiful on it. Still love his hint to It Ain’t Nessicarily So on one of the tracks the Tone Poet sounds amazing. So bright!
