Clunky Posted April 3, 2015 Report Posted April 3, 2015 Coltrane 'Crescent' (HMV, mono). I have a number of copies of this one but for me, this is the definitive issue. I've one of these too and it's a dead silent pressing with great sound. I prefer it to the stereo digipak CD version Quote
paul secor Posted April 3, 2015 Report Posted April 3, 2015 Coltrane 'Crescent' (HMV, mono). I have a number of copies of this one but for me, this is the definitive issue. I've one of these too and it's a dead silent pressing with great sound. I prefer it to the stereo digipak CD version I have Impulse mono and a Japanese stereo versions. Haven't listened comparatively to hear which I prefer, but weren't the mono versions fold downs of the stereo recordings by this time? Quote
clifford_thornton Posted April 3, 2015 Report Posted April 3, 2015 Indeed. In fact, I thought all Impulse mono LPs were folded down. Quote

chewy-chew-chew-bean-benitez Posted April 4, 2015 Report Posted April 4, 2015 Freddie Hubbard "goin up" (blue note, 47 w 63rd mono) a slightly worn copy but plays surprisingly well...these old blue notes are pretty durable! A beautiful date by an all star cast. i just have the liberty stereo--- so i guess it originally was only put out in mono, then liberty stereo a little later. theres arent any audiophile releases of this one i dont think Quote
sidewinder Posted April 4, 2015 Report Posted April 4, 2015 Music Matters put the 'Goin Up' album out as a 2 x 45rpm audiophile release. Quote

kh1958 Posted April 4, 2015 Report Posted April 4, 2015 Ravi Shankar and Ali Akbar Khan, Master Musicians of India (Prestige mono). Second side is fantastic. Getting ready to see sitarist Ustad Nishat Khan live tonight. Quote

Clunky Posted April 5, 2015 Report Posted April 5, 2015 Dexter Gordon--------Dexter blows hot and cool------(Authentic/Dootone) Maroon Dootone LP in Authentic sleeve ( B&W with red/white text) , great music, spotty pressing of uncertain vintage (70s- best guess) Quote
Homefromtheforest Posted April 6, 2015 Report Posted April 6, 2015 Sun Ra "heliocentric worlds vol.1" (ESP, mono textured paste on cover). One of the first sun ra records I ever bought...around 1991 if memory serves correctly. Holds up as one of my favorite Sun Ra albums...at least in the top 5. Quote

One of the first sun ra records I ever bought...around 1991 if memory serves correctly. Holds up as one of my favorite Sun Ra albums...at least in the top 5. Certainly my first and favourite Sun Ra.

clifford_thornton Posted April 6, 2015 Report Posted April 6, 2015 It's excellent. Wish I had one with the textured Folkways-style sleeve but what are you gonna do? Jam out on a later issue I guess! Quote
optatio Posted April 6, 2015 Report Posted April 6, 2015 Gunter Hampel and his Galaxie Dream Band, Celebrations (Birth). 2 LP set of the octet version of the band. Nice album and I also like the fact I don't have to colour in the cover on this one. cover painting by Gunter Hampel Quote
optatio Posted April 6, 2015 Report Posted April 6, 2015 It's excellent. Wish I had one with the textured Folkways-style sleeve but what are you gonna do? Jam out on a later issue I guess! I have had to turn it! Quote
Clunky Posted April 6, 2015 Report Posted April 6, 2015 Ichira masuda meets hank jones------The Song is ended-------( Victor Japan) Elegant session Quote
mjazzg Posted April 6, 2015 Report Posted April 6, 2015 (edited) James Newton/Anthony Davis - Crystal Texts [Moers Music] the price sticker says "totally obscure late 70s free jazz" however I'm tempted to steal Clunky's "Elegant session" as a more accurate description Edited April 6, 2015 by mjazzg Quote
Clunky Posted April 6, 2015 Report Posted April 6, 2015 Really mixed listening session this evening after a brief interlude of playing 78s back to vinyl. SME--------So what do you think------(Tangent) This seems to be the most coherent SME session I've heard. Kenny Wheeler , great but it's probably Derek Bailey who creates added value. Earlier Yusef Lateef --------A flat, G flat and C------(Impulse stereo) Quote
clifford_thornton Posted April 6, 2015 Report Posted April 6, 2015 So What Do You Think? is really good. Surprised it hasn't been reissued among the Emanems or Konnex titles though I'm not sure who even owns the masters at this point. Most Tangent LPs I've seen have been ethnographic recordings. Now: Moby Grape - s/t - (Columbia, 2-eye stereo, finger cover) Quote
