clifford_thornton Posted December 31, 2014 Report Posted December 31, 2014 Nice score. Have a dead silent Japanese press of "le nouveau jazz" and only the In Situ CD version of "free jazz"... I've been told the Japanese "Le nouveau jazz" is a stereo pressing. If so, is it "real" stereo? I think my copy is stereo but honestly have no idea. Catalog number is "SL-5007-AX". My copy is a white label promo and all the text on the back and inner gatefold is in Japanese. The pressing quality is pristine and not a single click is to be heard which is nice. Yeah, Columbia pressed up promos of both Tusques Mouloudjis - they are also quite rare, pressings are undoubtedly better than the originals. So it goes... Funny thing, those vintage Japanese free jazz pressings. "Church number nine" on Odeon has even got 10 minutes of extra music (sort of "part 3") compared to the French Calumet. I have an original French pressing but have long been curious about the Japanese Odeon and its extra ten minutes of music. Curious, but it's hard to break the bank purchasing something you already own! Now: Greek-Oriental Smyrnaic-Rebetic Songs and Dances, The Golden Years 1927-1937 - (Folklyric, US) Quote

sidewinder Posted December 31, 2014 Report Posted December 31, 2014 (edited) Neil Ardley 'Greek Variations' (Australian World Record Club). Never knew this obscure variant existed until I saw a copy. Sonics are pretty well comparable, I think, to the UK Columbia version. Ian Carr's tone, in particular, comes through very nicely. Edited December 31, 2014 by sidewinder Quote
sidewinder Posted December 31, 2014 Report Posted December 31, 2014 Followed by another Aussie World Record Club originally issued on UK Columbia - Laurie Johnson 'Synthesis' Quote
B. Clugston Posted December 31, 2014 Report Posted December 31, 2014 Coltrane's Sound (Atlantic, mono). Steve Lacy Trio, N.Y. Capers (Hat Art). I've had the CD for years, but finally got the LP set with the extra tracks. Quote

Homefromtheforest Posted January 1, 2015 Report Posted January 1, 2015 Record 3 of the Larry Young Mosaic box. I have all of the titles contained in this box as individual releases on both CD and album but could not resist the nice price faceofthebass gave me on this! Neil Ardley 'Greek Variations' (Australian World Record Club). Never knew this obscure variant existed until I saw a copy. Sonics are pretty well comparable, I think, to the UK Columbia version. Ian Carr's tone, in particular, comes through very nicely. well now that you've got two copies, I'd be happy to help you free one up! I have the CD of this and I'm perfectly content with that..it's a nice session but personally I don't like it enough to be compelled to throw $300 or so on a vinyl original! Quote
sidewinder Posted January 1, 2015 Report Posted January 1, 2015 (edited) Fair enough ! First vinyl play of the year - Joe Harriott 'Movement' (UK Columbia mono). A different listening experience to the fine Dutton Vocalion stereo CD. Bass more prominent. Love the way that side 1 finishes of with the neo-calypso 'Revival'. Perfect ! Edited January 1, 2015 by sidewinder Quote
Homefromtheforest Posted January 1, 2015 Report Posted January 1, 2015 Jealous! Truly a score indeed Quote
Homefromtheforest Posted January 1, 2015 Report Posted January 1, 2015 Now playing: John Coltrane "blue train" (blue note, mono 47 w 63rd no "r"). A recent score at $100 in really nice condition....need to do an A/B shootout with my Music Matters 33rpm reissue someday. Quote
sidewinder Posted January 1, 2015 Report Posted January 1, 2015 $100 for a 47W63rd Blue Train, first pressing or not, is a great find ! Now why did come out of Vancouver empty handed? Quote
B. Clugston Posted January 1, 2015 Report Posted January 1, 2015 Coltrane's Sound (Atlantic, mono). Steve Lacy Trio, N.Y. Capers (Hat Art). I've had the CD for years, but finally got the LP set with the extra tracks. More of the same, plus Steve Lacy, Raps. Bismillah Khan, an awesome shenai player, is on deck--if the kids fall asleep I can listen to it. Quote
Homefromtheforest Posted January 1, 2015 Report Posted January 1, 2015 Because Vancouver record stores suck! Got the Coltrane on an eBay "buy it now" from a seller who really undergraded it! One of those nice situations where a seller's "VG" is more like excellent... Quote
