Have to say that I've been enjoying it quite a bit - its a bit more 'out' than my norm. As mentioned, after VPI treatment the sonics are significantly better than expected based on what I've read on this board and others.

Jeanne Lee - Conspiracy - (Earthforms)

guess this came out on Mait Edey's Seeds label as well, but mine is not that version.

That's one of a few Lps that I regret selling many years ago. I found my copy in mint shape for $4 and could not resist the easy/quick profit to be had at the time :(

One I want a lot, too but I can't blame you -- I might do the same.

It's a very good record - the unaccompanied vocal piece is especially nice. Well-conceived and not just another NYC "loft" session (though the cast might give that impression). I'm sorta surprised it goes for a lot of money, considering the fact that it's not that rare, but whatever... When Porter was doing their Seeds reissues they tried to do this one as well but the Lee estate wasn't having any of it (they wanted something like a million dollars for the right to reissue it). Too bad, as I think that sort of behavior just encourages bootleggers.

Nothing like flying home to find a package from Dusty Groove. Spinning the Sam Records reissues of Donald Byrd's Jazz in Paris and Parisian Thoroughfare. Despite a couple of drop outs on PT, both of these sound gorgeous. All analog mastering from the original master tapes, fold back jackets to mimic the originals, cover photo and photo print from original negatives, 180g vinyl is dead flat and plays it too. So, so good...

Milt Jackson + Count Basie + The Big Band Vol. 2 (Pablo)

The Basie band is used strictly as background and for fills. Judging from the personnel, by this time there were probably few or no decent soloists left, so that was probably for the best.
