jeffcrom Posted March 9, 2015 Report Posted March 9, 2015 David Mack 'New Directions' (Columbia Lansdowne, mono) Didn't know anyone else here knew that album. I have the U.S. version on Serenus, with this cover: Despite Max Harrison's high praise for this album, the music more interesting than great, I think. But I haven't spun it for awhile; I'll do that soon. Spun this tonight. Yep, still more interesting than compelling. Shake Keane's playing is heroic, though. Quote
jeffcrom Posted March 9, 2015 Report Posted March 9, 2015 Olympia Brass Band - Mardi Gras '77 (OBB). This is a three-tune, seven-inch 33 RPM EP. Discographical info is scarce, but I hear Milton Batiste on trumpet and vocals, Harold Dejan on alto, two hot trombonists, Emanuel Paul and (I think) David Grillier on tenors, two tubas (Allen Jaffe is one, I think), snare drums, bass drum, and percussion. Wonderful stuff. Quote

tomatamot Posted March 9, 2015 Report Posted March 9, 2015 TRICKY LOFTON & CARMELL JONES - Brass Bag (1962 Dutch mono 8-track LP ) again, this is so much better than the pac jazz orig. ive not found too many uk or european versions like this but i have a few and theyre all amazing. i have this esquire or something pressing of Paul Chambers delegation from the east on JazzWest-- it sounds better most originals. its all in the quality of the vinyl, and the covers look way better too as well. i have lots of these in rock/pop, but not in jazz. the only drawback is they are not as indestructible like the US versions, i cant just plop them in one of my many record piles. they vinyl is fragile as glass on some of them, i have them in a special area Chewy, I agree on your opinion. I have a lot of Fontana`s ( just Jazz records ) all are superb sounding. Quote

Homefromtheforest Posted March 10, 2015 Report Posted March 10, 2015 Nathan Davis "happy girl" (Saba tree, Germany) Vinko Globokar "drama and correspondences" (BASF, Germany). Have not played this in over 10 years or more...inspired by Michel Portal thread today. That's a fun one. Any album with ring modulator is fun Quote

That's a good one. Yeah, certainly seems to be on the first couple of listens. Enjoying the use of sitar, cellos and vocals. Makes me want to check out more Jay Clayton Quote
Clunky Posted March 10, 2015 Report Posted March 10, 2015 A couple of Xanadu titles I was considering selling were spun this evening Charles McPherson---- Free Bop! A truly dire track opens side2 . Latinised schmaltz even Lou Levy can't revive . Otherwise pretty solid and enjoyable . Hmmm.... keep? Dolo Coker------All Alone A sure one to sell. Cutout sleeve, ring wear, edge wear and dusty vinyl. Quick clean. Played both sides- really lovely. No way is this going . Not doing so well in my quest to clear a little shelf space. Quote

colinmce Posted March 11, 2015 Report Posted March 11, 2015 Totally forgot about this one. It was on my list for a long time but I never found it. I guess I'll start looking again! Quote

colinmce Posted March 11, 2015 Report Posted March 11, 2015 I had to think about whether or not I had it for longer than I should have. Quote
mjazzg Posted March 11, 2015 Report Posted March 11, 2015 I had to think about whether or not I had it for longer than I should have. Hey, I bought an LP today(thankfully not expensive) that I forgot already had on CD ....wish I'd thought as long as you had to Quote
clifford_thornton Posted March 11, 2015 Report Posted March 11, 2015 I have done this with both LPs and CDs numerous times. Or I thought something I had was in "VG" shape and upgrade, come to find that both copies are very clean and I have to sell or trade one of them. Gotta stop doing this... unless something is fried it's a waste of time. Quote
