Oh wow - I used to see him on occasions in a local jazz CD outlet. Based on his conversations with the store owner, he knew his stuff !

The thing was, I didn't know who he was at the time. If I had done, I would have tried out some of my best 'Franglais'

Amancio D'Silva 'Integration' (Pheon). FIrst, limited vinyl reissue of this one from the master tapes, authorised by the D'Silva estate.

First impressions - Fantastic reissue, very quiet vinyl and superb sonics. Blasts the Impressed CD into outer orbit..

Marc Levin Ensemble - Songs Dances and Prayers [Centrifuga, 2017]

lovely sounding Levin authorised reissue. Nice artwork repro and extra notes from Levin. 

A very nice update of an all time favourite the original of which is now a bit tired

[clifford_thornton]

the pressing on the original is pretty rough from what I recall. I should probably buy the reissue.

The kaleidoscope kovers series, got me some of them back in the day.  Love the clovers!(klovers!?) think I have dang near everything they did for Atlantic one way or another, but v. little else.

Opposite reaction here.

I already had some of their more essential recordings on various V.A. compilations, and I remember seeing this "Greatest" compilation in the record racks back tehn but shied away each time because of that garishly "modernized" 70s cover that just did not go with 50s recordings inside (there were many such cases in the 70s) . And as the Clovers were not essential enough to me at the time to want to live with that "out of tune" packaging I never grabbed it.

[paul secor]

The packaging was tacky, but the sound quality was good.

Me too now. Thanks Sidewinder! I missed out on the Impressed CD so this is the first time I've heard the music. Lovely stuff, fine sound indeed

That CD is now fetching silly prices. Glad you share my view of this reissue - my second copy arrived too. Now I can wear the first one out and rest easy !
