The iCTI! is not iMONO!, correct?

That would be wild, if there was such a thing. 

The message board combined my responses, so the CTI is not mono.  

Of course, there is always the mono button on your amp!

Reiko Ike - You, Baby

[clifford_thornton]

Pretty much only one (or two) reasons to own that!

One of Keiji Haino's favourite records, I'll have you know.

[HutchFan]

Now on my turntable:

Ed Bickert / Don Thompson (Sackville, 1978)

Subtle, lovely music.

Stickers on the cover and labels inform me that my LP was formerly property of the Duquesne University Library.  However, it doesn't appear to have been checked out much.  The vinyl is very clean.

Not PC. Sorry!!

They sound like someone rubbing balloon animals together.

Just finished - Red Garland - Red Alert (Galaxy). Noisy pressing. It looks spotless but plays with quite a bit of low-level crackle in spots. It probably needs a good cleaning but I never did buy one of those things.

Now playing: Booker Ervin - Down In The Dumps (Savoy). I found a RVG cut from the late 70s. Record looks unplayed.

Never seen that sleeve, much better than the Storyville issue.  Great album, I love Shepp shouting the time change on Trio during his solo. (Five Five!). Moses dominates on drums. Great drummer who doesn’t have a big discography to his name.

[clifford_thornton]

yeah, Trio is worth the price of admission alone. 

the Storyville reissue uses the International Polydor cover. This is the original sleeve art, which first appeared on a heavy folkways-style sleeve and then was issued in a thin flipback by Sonet.
