Jimmy Ponder -------White Room-------(Impulse)

variable success on this one. Some decent tracks but also some lame material too.

True. Also true of his other Impulse LP, 'Illusions'.

Not true of this one, which I'm now playing, though, produced by Bob Porter, with Mickey Tucker,

except mine's the Mono.

Found this and Bley's Touching from the same series in a nice old fashioned record shop this week

Wow...that was good find.

Which shop was that if you don't mind me asking?

Bought my copy of Rufus at Academy in the Village years ago. I think it was $50, which didn't seem bad for a clean Dutch original. Bought Touching in the field as well, in Paris. Both about a dozen years ago; I don't know whether that would happen these days.

Sold my vinyl copies of 'Rufus', 'Mohawk' & 'The New York Contemporary Five' (all Dutch pressings) when I found CD copies of each in a record shop in Manchester.

I've always loved this albums and still play them regularly.....the CD versions, that is.

Bought mine at Stereo Jack's about 25 years ago. Can't remember the price, but I'm sure it was less than $15.

I got this very same LP in a shop years ago for $2 mint. Still haven't felt motivated to play it. I should put it on tomorrow.

Got a new amplifier today(well a late 70s vintage beast that weighs a ton but sounds amazing) and these records got played to test it out:

Michael Garrick "prelude to heart is a lotus" (gearbox) ...excellent sound, music, and performance...what a great album!

Masabumi Kikuchi "end for the beginning" (Philips, Japan)

Henri Texier "Paris-batignolles" (label bleu, France)

Really must get hold of that one.

Those were the days. I think my copy was unplayed too - picked it up along with a mono Duke Pearson 'Sweet Honey Bee' in similar shape. According to Honest Jon's they had been sitting in a US store-room for about 30 years.

Donald Byrd - Blackjack - BN (UA dark blue label) My second copy - can't remember what happened to the original, which I got before 'Mustang' and which persuaded me to rush out and buy that one, too. But I still prefer this album.
