Discogs has this filed under Jazz, folk, world & country!! Is that vague description accurate?

Definitely Jazz. No discernible Folk and I suspect the World comes from the use of steel pans (which work really well).

It's a cracking album. Any fan of Harris or Pullen is going to like it I suspect. Plenty of it on YouTube to sample

subtitled ‘KPM cues used in the amazing animated series that we are not allowed to mention by name for legal reasons’

Compilation of KPM library music used in the 2nd and 3rd series of the amazing 🕷 man TV series from the late 60s. Groovy baby. 

I’m usually a sucker for Trunk releases and had my finger on the order button a couple of days ago for the super cool looking multi-colour version. Afraid to say that the KPM samples did nothing for me and was not a fan of the TV  series. Probably just me !  Ah well..

Tasty. Is it as good as I suspect it is?

Yes it's good but bad/indifferent Tapscott I've yet to hear

Same here. A real "buy with confidence" artist

This again. The medley on side C is particularly special

Glad you’re liking this. I think perhaps that if the two Resonance GG sets this is the better one. It’s from a less documented part of his career, the sound is uniformly excellent . The French set does lose a mark for the sound on the 2&3rd LPs. It’s best described as dark which fits the music.

Yet to complete the play-through of the full 3LP Grant Green France set. Will put that right this weekend. Like what I’ve heard and its  for both sets.

Agree that the Vancouver set fills an important gap - certainly quite different from e.g. the Kudu release.

I have the French one sitting here too. It's a good job it's a long weekend

[sidewinder]

As I have just olive oiled my ears after a particularly unpleasant ear infection I am in for a sonic upgrade as I check out both GG sets.

On to Antibes now (saving LP1 for tomorrow morning) and I hear what you say about the sound - denser and a bit squeezed if that makes sense. I do like the organ/sax set up though
