Paps has been listening to some good classical vinyl lately!

[Clunky]

Herbie Hancock ---------Maiden Voyage--------(BN NYC mono )

Latest arrival . I thought my Toshiba edition ( stereo) was good but this is something else.

[Homefromtheforest]

I hear that title will be presented next year in the music matters 33rpm reissue series in mono..can't wait for that! That series has been really excellent so far and it's nice to hear some of these titles in pristine/quiet condition. Nothing annoys me more then spending 3 figures on an original blue note only to hear some crackles and pops..even if there's only a few..

[B. Clugston]

Abbey Lincoln, People In Me (Inner City). Nice session from 1974 featuring a few members of Miles Davis' band of the time (Dave Liebman, Al Foster, Mtume).

[Homefromtheforest]

Can "Tago Mago" (united artists, Germany). Original German press and killer fidelity

[jeffcrom]

Onward Brass Band - Last Journey of a Jazzman (Nobility). In January, 1965 Cosimo Matassa carried a "portable" 50-pound tape recorder for miles in the rain to record the great Onward Brass Band playing the funeral of pianist Lester Santiago. The recordings were issued on two Nobility LPs - unfortunately marred by overdubbed narration by A. Grayson Clark, the owner of Dixieland Hall (a long-gone rival of Preservation Hall) and Nobility Records. Clark felt it necessary to "explain" the proceedings. I played some of the hymns and dirges from the first disc and endured the narration, but really enjoyed the fourth side, which has the second-line numbers the band played after they left the cemetery. Clark introduces the side, then shuts up and gets out of the way.

Eero Koivistien "wahoo" (RCA, Finland) killer sounding Finnish original with Edward Vesala, Juhani Aaltonen, etc

I don't know if I'm going to continue with this series. They press at RTI and I've had 3 out of ten records with noticeable dish warp and in my last shipment, Kenny Drew's "Undercurrent" has a glob of some gooey stuff on one side. After a nightmarish return sequence with my copy of Tina Brooks' "True Blue", I haven't even tried returning this.

[Homefromtheforest]

I had to return 2 titles so far but only bought 7 thus far. Both were for some tics and pops but I haven't had any with warps? Maybe I've just been lucky.

I've just 3 and found them to be perfect, although they can come out of shrink wrap with odd dusk marks and even finger prints. Nothing I can't clean off.

now spinning..

The Heath Brothers---------Marchin' On !---------(Strata East

I got the full set of the 45rpms as a subscriber and stopped when they finished that series. I'm happy to leave it at that. One can have too much of a good thing - and that includes Blue Notes.

Billy Harper -----Capra Black-----(Strata East)

[paul secor]

Duke Jordan: Flight to Denmark (Steeplechase)

[jeffcrom]

Bill Coleman - Paris 1936/38 (Swing/DRG). That's the title on the spine, not the front. Whatever it's really called, this is fabulous music.

Bill Russo 'Russo In London' (Columbia Lansdowne, mono)

Rendell/Carr Quintet 'Live' (Columbia Lansdowne, stereo)

Kenny Dorham-------Showboat------(Oriole UK)

Fantabulous KD session

[Homefromtheforest]

Bill Russo 'Russo In London' (Columbia Lansdowne, mono)

Rendell/Carr Quintet 'Live' (Columbia Lansdowne, stereo)

Never heard of that Bill Russo lp? What's it like?

The rendell/Carr "live" lp is fantastic.,.have a mint stereo copy myself.

Wayne Shorter--------The All seeing eye---------(BN Liberty)

A non RVG mastering if the runout is to be believed but it sounds stunning in this edition and a significant upgrade to my RVG CD.

That's good to hear. I was only looking at purchasing a vinyl copy this morning.

My copy has blue/ white labels rather than the later blue/black. Having said that I've no idea how many different pressings there are of this title.

Pretty good - as is another one in this series called 'Stonehenge'. Both quite rare - and you can hear where Kenny Wheeler got some of his arranging influences.

Rendell/Carr 'Live' is an excellent LP. Also lucky enough to have a mint copy. Notable participants in the invited studio 'audience' were John Le Mesurier and 'Alf Garnett' of TV fame.
