As if his discography wasn't already complicated enough. I agree it’s pretty confusing. I always have to check out Discogs when buying a new Steve Lacy record. Quote

Arthur Jones----Scorpio----(America) Interesting set. Curiously Discogs dates this issue to 1971 the same year as the BYG release. Seems odd given that they are both French labels. The liners to the America issue are just in English - perhaps this edition was for export ? Sound/pressing is better than typically found from BYG issues. My understanding is that after Delcloo had a falling out with the BYG people, he took the tapes of that record and Coursil's "Black Suite" to Pierre Berjot, who issued them on America.

It looks like it has never been put out on CD & some editions are going for big bucks: https://www.discogs.com/master/734497-Chick-Corea-The-Sun very good record. Have the 1970 black vinyl pressing.

clifford_thornton Posted April 22 Report Posted April 22 that's too bad. I have the LP set but never owned the CD version. Quote

That's a real favourite of mine because of that piano trio. With culls you just have to be brutal. Brush the tears from your eyes. No time for pity or sentiment. Quote

Farmer is such a different player than Henderson but it works with both of them. I am a little more careful with culling records from my collection. At this moment there are only about 5 or 6 on my list but not sure yet so haven’t put them down for sale yet. Repeated listens could really change your feelings about a record or even the artist himself. Now playing: Quote

I really just have to get rid of stuff. Quote
Pim Posted Thursday at 06:57 AM Report Posted Thursday at 06:57 AM Everytime I spin this one I am amazed by its fresh and original sound. It sounds way ahead of its time. One of the most memorable jazz groups if you’d ask me. Quote
