porcy62 Posted January 10, 2009 Report Posted January 10, 2009 Curtis Mayfield - SWEET EXORCIST - Curtom. ANOTHER Badass album, one of my faves from Curtis. Agree, a recent purchase, when I find a Curtis' record I grab it, whatever I know, or I don't know about it, I was never disappointed. Quote
porcy62 Posted January 10, 2009 Report Posted January 10, 2009 (edited) Curtis Amy and Paul Bryant - MEETIN' HERE - PJ, mono. Another recent purchase, 15 $, I couldn't pass on it. Edited January 10, 2009 by porcy62 Quote
sidewinder Posted January 10, 2009 Report Posted January 10, 2009 (edited) Lonnie Smith 'Think !' (BN Manhattan 80s pressing, DMM Ron McMaster transfer). Suprisingly good under the circumstances ! This is simply one killer badass album, every bit as groovy as the cover would suggest. Got this in budget bin at 3rd Street Jazz in Philly back in the early 80s when so many BNs were cutouts. "Son of Ice Bag" rocks, blows away Hugh Masakela's original. Absolutely. 'Son Of Ice Bag' smokes, with very good Lee Morgan. In fact the whole of side 1 is brilliant. Side 2 not quite so good but it's still a 'killin' album. Lonnie's Blue Notes are all very good IMO (I've started to really like 'Drives'). And the DMM pressing of this one is fine as long as the volume is cranked up past 12. Edited January 10, 2009 by sidewinder Quote

I've got a Japanese Toshiba of that one. Good find at $15 ! Italian equivalent of Oxfam? No, surprisingly an ebay auction wich I was the only bidder. And it's a DG in NM condition! Lately I was outbidded by almost all the auctions I partecipate, call it 'ebay crazyness', or maybe my max bid has followed the stock markets. Edited January 10, 2009 by porcy62 Quote
sidewinder Posted January 10, 2009 Report Posted January 10, 2009 Nice to see that ebay can still deliver good deals occasionally ! Clarke/Boland Big Band 'Fellini 712' (French MPS, stereo). One of their best, for sure ! Quote

blajay Posted January 11, 2009 Report Posted January 11, 2009 Testing out the new Nitty Gritty I got as a gift! I got this LP for $9 presumably priced as such because of its condition. It was pretty dirty, but now it really plays like new! McCoy Tyner--Time For Tyner (BN Liberty blue/white stereo) I've been on a Bobby Hutcherson kick lately, and I'm loving this one. Quote
