Nicely recorded.

From Russell's own tapes of three different live radio broadcasts. Two different bass and piano players across the sessions.

Music swings the roof off. Any Russell fan is going to like it

haha, will do -- maybe Dusty Groove will carry it. They never did get the Tubby LP set and I think just a few of the CD sets.

Richie Cole and Return To Alto Acres (Palo Alto). I do like this one. Killer band and no goofy song covers to mess with us.

Clifford, US orders are handled by Wayside Music.

how are you using the term underfill here?

i haven't noticed major issues with my copy of that record but it's also my least favorite of the bunch, so I don't listen to it as much/as closely as the others.

After the head and the soprano sax solo, there's a piano solo. Near the middle of the piano solo, there are clicks and crackles that eventually break up a bit and then there's even a bit of bleed through in the left channel just as the horns start back up. The bleed through almost sounds like tape echo but I doubt that would have slipped through... unless you hear it too. I can see a shiny line in the track itself, which is why I'm thinking that it's underfill. I even tried wet wiping the record, which I don't much these days and it didn't help.

I had some issues too with their reissues, not the box set, the single ones, got a replacement from Jazzmen after several emails, at first they pretended I send back the faulty copy at my expense, after some emails I sent an audio file with the problems and I got the replacement, not really the best customer service I experienced.

BTW great music I am going to listen to it right now.

Sonny Stitt with Strings: A Tribute to Duke Ellington (Catalyst, 1977)
with string arrangements by Bill Finnegan 

Much more enjoyable than most "with strings" jazz LPs.  I dig.

Fleetwood Mac - Rumours (WB). I actually have a couple of versions of this. I have a beat-up old original that somehow found it's way into my collection, a Nautilus "Super Disc" version and the one that's playing - a remaster/cut by Steve Hoffman and Kevin Gray from 2011 Record Store Day. It actually sounds very good.

It's too bad that Jazzman Records isn't backing their product. Are you saying that I'd be wasting my time trying to get them to get me another pressing, especially now that this particular title appears to out of stock?

Don't know, but after three of four emails and the audio files, I got a free replacemet, though added to another shipping so they didn't pay the shipping, only the plain record. My first copy had a couple of tracks frankly unlistenable.

Various Artists - Eight Trails, One Path (Three Lobed Recordings). A 2011 Record Store Day release. The LP is made like a matchbook, which is kinda cool if kinda impractical. The music has an acoustic folksy/country vibe. Here's the "matchbook look". Yes, the top half folds down and tucks into the edge below like a matchbook. The sleeve is stapled in place and doesn't come out.

I'd never heard of one of these guys before I picked this up but I do play it every now & then. You can "You Tube" all eight tracks here:

Not the "complete recordings", but it works for me.

Joe Zawinul - The Rise And Fall Of The Third Stream [Vortex]

A recent purchase that keeps finding its way to the turntable. This will become a real favourite.
