George Wallington 'New York Scene' (Esquire, mono).

I was tempted by a copy if this on Alan's specials list but in the end I just couldn't justify the cost. My K2 disc will have to suffice. Great session

The Grip - Celebrate [slowfoot] Finn Peters (as, fl); Oren Marshall (tba); Tom Skinner (d)

Yes, this is indeed the one from 'the list' and I was suprised that Alan still had it when I asked. I'm a huge fan of Esquires and this only comes up rarely so went for it. Much, much better condition than the sleeve pic shown !

Thanks for your sentiments ! Hope you got some nice ones from that list, Clunky.

I just wish that the Esquires were easier to find. From what I gather, Carlo Krahmer and Peter Newbrook pressed them in very small runs/batches and some of the titles must have only got 1-2 batches at most.

Noah Howard "space dimension" (Columbia, Japan). Yes!!! After owning 2 mint French america copies that both sounded horrible(some weird pressing problem seems to have affected all copies) it is a revelation to find this Japanese issue that sounds perfect! No weird distortion that is present on the America pressings...

John Jenkins/Kenny Burrell "s/t" (blue note, King Japan mono)

Jackie McLean "destination out" (blue note, King Japan stereo). Finally found a King pressing and after owning 3 slightly noisy originals it's a joy to hear this on dead silent vinyl...

yes, the japanese King edition of "Destination Out" is truly magnificent....

I did rather too well which is why I passed on the Wallington.

I didn't read Alan's email too closely and thus got the list a day later. Naturally everything I wanted was gone (including Decipher).
