Ed and I were at Leeds University together where he cut his jazz entrepreneur's teeth by getting Ronnie Scott to bring Freddie Hubbard to the campus. Later we lived in the same house in Manchester after which our paths diverged, I staying in Manchester while he, as you know, moved to the London area. Quote

Somewhere, I’ve still got what I think was his very first mail order mailshot, sent out from his home several years before the Mole Jazz shop even started. If I remember correctly, I bought a second hand copy of the Miles Davis ‘Green Haze’ twofer from it. Will have to check but I think it lists some Tubby Hayes Fontana’s at £2 a shot !

His record selling started when his ever-increasing collection got so big that it fell off the end of the sideboard in the Manchester house on which it was displayed. The date would be about 1967.

Then there’s also the stuff that was in Mole’s basement (inner inner sanctum). Edited August 9, 2020 by sidewinder Quote

sidewinder Posted August 11, 2020 Report Posted August 11, 2020 (edited) Yes - it has been for sale on Bandcamp. I had my suspicions on source as the John Thurlow book mentioned that the tapes were believed destroyed. This LP sounds to be from a master though - impeccable sound. Good news ! Cadillac have done a great job - flipback laminated sleeve as well. to them ! Edited August 11, 2020 by sidewinder Quote

Within 2 days to my location. Two weeks - ridiculous ! They did mention by email today that the first press was about to run out and second press lined up. Suspect that is the reason.

mjazzg Posted August 11, 2020 Report Posted August 11, 2020 Yes, i read the first pressing was sold out already somewhere. Listening now, lovely job done. Quote
