No and never did enjoy Whitehouse, but I love the Lemon Kittens and a few other cuts on this album! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
clifford_thornton Posted June 18, 2015 Report Share Posted June 18, 2015 Cut Hands is a far better musical experience than Whitehouse, at least to me and at this point in time. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mjazzg Posted June 18, 2015 Report Share Posted June 18, 2015 Ornette Coleman Double Sextet - Free Jazz [Atlantic] Mono I've been alternating the mono and stereo editions a couple of times today. The mono has an immediacy the stereo lacks to my ears. However the stereo has the quartet separation. Mono wins today, stereo will win another day Whitehouse? Never thought I'd see their name in this neighbourhood. Scared me then so I'm sure they'd still do so today Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

corto maltese Posted June 18, 2015 Report Share Posted June 18, 2015 I've once been very much into the UK industrial scene. Looking back, it was probably my most important stepping stone to the experimental/free improv/avant-garde/whatever... music I'm still listening to (and very much enjoying) today. And Stapleton's United Dairies label was crucial. I mean, the first release (An Afflicted Man's Musica Box; another compilation) introduced me to Jacques Berrocal, AMM Ã nd Anima. Not to mention the notorious Nurse With Wound list... I've kept one or two shelves with records from this area including precisely "Hoisting the black flag". I cherish them although I seldom play them. As for Whitehouse (who feature on Hoisting...): they're virtually unlistenable, of course, but they were very much part of that scene.

Homefromtheforest Posted June 18, 2015 Report Share Posted June 18, 2015 The afflicted mans music box is a great compilation; still have my copy as well! And of course MANY great artists on the NWW list. I find the first NWW album unlistenable, but really enjoy "spiral Insana" and "ostrananie 1913" - my favorite NWW albums. I was a big fan of Organum and HNAS too! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
corto maltese Posted June 19, 2015 Report Share Posted June 19, 2015 Last night : Sun Ra Live in Paris et the Gibus (French Atlantic): I'm not an expert, neither a completist, but this a favourite. Joe Daley At Newport '63 (RCA, UK mono): According to the sleeve notes, it's the complete afternoon concert filled out wiith a recording of the soundcheck, but I also read (here?) that some of the tracks are studio recordings. Anyway, it's a great set and the mono sound is very sweet. George Russell Sextet In K.C. (Brunswick): I have the original Decca, but with a water damaged cover. Now I've found a beautiful German mono pressing. I like this one very much. One oddity is that the "Lunacy" track is credited to trombonist Dave Baker, while it's a composition by a very young Carla Bley who was Russell's student at that time.

king ubu Posted June 19, 2015 Report Share Posted June 19, 2015 (edited) solid blowing date with some fine Percy France on tenor - part of today's nice haul, been way too long that I did any digging for vinyl and had a great time ... more info and larger pic* on discogs:http://www.discogs.com/Oliver-Jackson-Presents-Le-Quartet/release/3108940 the LP is signed by Leonard Gaskin left of his pic, there's more writing on top next to Jackson's pic, but it looks more like a dedication or something in Gaskin's writing than like another signature ... can't really tell though.*) *) Thou taketh what the internet giveth (that is, if I'm allowed to coin a Sangrey ) Edited June 19, 2015 by king ubu Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

sidewinder Posted June 20, 2015 Report Share Posted June 20, 2015 (edited) Cedar Walton 'Spectrum' (Prestige, blue label stereo) Miles Davis 'Blue Haze' (Esquire mono, flat edge pressing) This was Gramaphone Magazine's review copy from 1960 and Charles Fox has initialled the back and annotated the Esquire EPs from which most of the tracks originate (at least here in the UK).
