What vinyl are you spinning right now??

Giancarlo Schiaffini - Jazz A Confronto 5 [Horo]

[clifford_thornton]

I have that thing somewhere... can't recall much about it off the top of my head!

Now:

François Tusques - Free Jazz - (Mouloudji, FR)

[Homefromtheforest]

I'm envious Clifford! Just have the ugly CD on in situ

[clifford_thornton]

at least the CD has extra tracks!

[sidewinder]

Coltrane 'Crescent' (HMV, mono). I have a number of copies of this one but for me, this is the definitive issue.

Paul Motian - Le Voyage (ECM)

[sidewinder]

Ornette Coleman Trio 'At The Golden Circle, Stockholm Vol 2' (BN NY USA, stereo). Lovely copy from the Tokyo haul.

followed by:

Oliver Nelson 'Three Dimensions' (Impulse ABC 2LP set). One of the Michael Cuscuna 'Dedication Series' with additional tracks from 'Sound Pieces'.

[clifford_thornton]

Coltrane 'Crescent' (HMV, mono). I have a number of copies of this one but for me, this is the definitive issue.

Huh. I have a crisp mono that sounds great. Lucky zero dollar find.

[sidewinder]

Jon Eardley 'Hey There !' (Esquire, 10 inch)

9 NZ dollars and sounding as good as the day it was pressed !

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?

[clifford_thornton]

Indeed. In fact, I thought all Impulse mono LPs were folded down.

[chewy-chew-chew-bean-benitez]

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

[sidewinder]

Music Matters put the 'Goin Up' album out as a 2 x 45rpm audiophile release.

I have it and it's up to their usual standards

[mjazzg]

Marshall Allen presents Sun Ra and his Arkestra - In the Orbit of Ra [strut/Art Yard]

hoping this will open some doors into the wider Ra universe

[kh1958]

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.

[jeffcrom]

JImmy Smith - Rockin' the Boat (BN mono)

[John Tapscott]

[kh1958]

Sonny Rollins, Jazz Classics (Movin' On) (Prestige mono), and John Coltrane Plays for Lovers (Prestige mono).

[Clunky]

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)

[Homefromtheforest]

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.
