What vinyl are you spinning right now??

[Leeway]

Braxton is mightily impressive on this one. Chick does his part. On Picaddilly LP.

Wasn't there a Tom Wilson connection with Audio Fidelity? (thinking here of the Walt Dickerson sessions that were on that label).

I believe so, but I'm not sure if he produced all of the "heavy" jazz sessions.

The ones I have are:

Bill Barron & Ted Curson - Now Hear This (AF)

Bill Barron - West Side Story Bossa Nova (Dauntless)

Walt Dickerson - Jazz Impressions of Lawrence of Arabia (Dauntless)

Walt Dickerson - Unity (AF)

Elmo Hope - Sounds from Riker's Island (AF)

There's an attractive looking Prince Lasha session with the Bossa Tres that I've never actually owned.

Heather and Glen (Tradition). Folk music from Scotland, largely recorded by Alan Lomax in 1951. Beautiful stuff.

Thought so. I have Dauntless/AF copies of all of these too, apart from the 'Rikers' (on CD). Certainly not up to Blue Note recording quality but great that they exist. Never come across the Lasha.

wonderful!

wonderful!

Glad to hear that, it's sitting in my "arrived, not listened" pile

[king ubu]

Second (of three) in the LP shipment I got today from Lithuania ... the Tchicai is very relaxed, has kind of an open and free groove thing going on (McBee is a master in that!), Fewell was the biggest surprise for me, hardly know him ... and Tchicai himself plays fine, what a gorgeous tone he has on tenor sax! (that, btw, applies to Borgmann, too!)

For what it's worth, my mono copy of Jazz Impressions of LoA is on MGM.

A friend brought over the Art Ensembles "People In Sorrow" last night. How did I miss out on this one?

[colinmce]

I do want that Borgmann 2LP but the fucking thing would run me over $40. That's mental; just can't do it.

Not to be overly dramatic, but that was one of those life-changing albums for me.

First listen says it's very good ... I'm being treated the same as all other non-EU countries there, btw. Makes sense to combine a few things (but then over here, there's always them custom crapperies).

Now, the third and last of this order (still waiting for a much larger CD order, might have been caught by customs, but I sure do hope not!)

"Kampen", by Bobby Bradford, Frode Gjerstand, Ingebrigt Haker Flaten and Paal Nilssen-Love

[king ubu]

short and sweet ... but to me it really feels as if Ibrahim only had his thing together by the time he made "African Piano" at the tail end of the decade ...

[king ubu]

one more ...

Very affecting piece of music indeed!

Have both of these. Haven't had a chance to listen to them more than once yet, but I liked them. Maybe 4 out of 5 stars each. If you are getting LPs from NoBusiness, try the 2 by Liudas Mockunas, especially the first one, which is killer. The one with Guy is also strong. I saw Tchicai and Fewell in concert a few years back. Very good show.

[Leeway]

Base Records LP. I think the word "fiery" is required to be used with this album.

Joe Harriott - Abstract (US Capitol mono). I've had this one for years, and have always enjoyed it, but it's clicking for me tonight in a way it never has before. Brilliant.

Bought that one at Campus Record Shop in Iowa City. Best guess is Fall, 1962.

Sure you're not thinking of Impressions of a Patch of Blue?

Lawrence of Arabia also came out as Vibes in Motion on Audio Fidelity.
