paul secor Posted July 23, 2011 Report Posted July 23, 2011 Roy Eldridge + Howard McGee (Vogue Japan) One side by each - both trumpeters do some very fine blowing. Roy is magnificent on "Wild Man Blues", a duet with Claude Bolling. Quote

BillF Posted July 23, 2011 Report Posted July 23, 2011 (edited) Three new HMV acquisitions: John Coltrane 'A Love Supreme' (HMV, mono) I've had that HMV album (CSD 1605) since 1971. You're just catching up with me, Sidewinder! (Must give it a spin) Edited July 23, 2011 by BillF Quote

You're just catching up with me, Sidewinder! (Must give it a spin) This one is CLP 1869, Bill. An original from 1965, I think - with the Garrard and Lofthouse sleeve. Sounds very good indeed in the mono, nice balanced sound. Will be comparing it with the US first press on Impulse that I also have (stereo). I also have a UK ABC/Impulse 70s reissue but that doesn't come up to the sonics of the HMV, good though it is. Edited July 23, 2011 by sidewinder Quote

TWilson Posted July 23, 2011 Report Posted July 23, 2011 Wonderful album! I just picked it up last week at our local outdoor market and have been enjoying it very much. Quote

jeffcrom Posted July 24, 2011 Report Posted July 24, 2011 Spiritual Starlites - Long Black Limousine (ASL); One of my favorite gospel LPs, by an Atlanta group who put out this one album (and a single) back in the late 1980's. Again - this is one of my favorite obscure local gospel albums, on the Atlanta Soul Liberation label. Couldn't find a picture anywhere on the web. Quote

This lost gem needs to be reissued. Stealth Thad & Mel album - and one of their very best ! Edited July 24, 2011 by sidewinder Quote

Reaction: a masterpiece album, one of the greatest in the music. By this late stage the group were majestic - how far they'd come on since the Atlantic "My Favorite Things" session! Quote
kh1958 Posted July 24, 2011 Report Posted July 24, 2011 Teddy Wilson in Europe: 1968 (Prestige, blue label) Gil Evans (Ampex) Quote
JSngry Posted July 24, 2011 Report Posted July 24, 2011 Gil Evans (Ampex) How's your pressing? Every one I've come across has been noisier than hell... Quote
Bill Nelson Posted July 24, 2011 Report Posted July 24, 2011 Mine plays normally -- no pressing hiss or lite crackles. Spaces between tracks are silent. There's a 2-inch high 'D.J.' stamped in blue on the back cover. The vinyl was pressed at Sterling. If I'd sent away for my Steve Hoffman decoder ring, I'd know what the initials on the trail-out grooves signify. Given the brief run of Ampex Records from 1970-71 and its takeover by Albert Grossman and Bearsville*, the control of Ampex master tapes and warehouse product became shakey. *esp. Todd Rundgren's 'Runt' which got widely counterfeited Quote
JSngry Posted July 24, 2011 Report Posted July 24, 2011 Guess I've just had bad luck. The Enja CD remains handy! Quote
