sidewinder Posted July 6, 2005 Report Posted July 6, 2005 (edited) LIVE 8 and this thread http://www.organissimo.org/forum/index.php?showtopic=17956 reminded me I have most of the Floyd's work on original pressing, included a rare mono first pressing of 'Saucerful of Secrets' , so... 'I will get a Pink Afternoon' ← At a recent vinyl fair I checked out there was a guy there selling copies of every Floyd LP in every international release (Argentinian first pressing 'Meddle' anyone?). He also had a great stack of boots. If I had had the storage space and $ it would have been worth making a bulk purchase offer. I did however pick up the German Columbia first pressing of 'Piper At The Gates of Dawn'. Now playing 'Live at the Half Note' - Art Farmer Quartet Featuring Jim Hall (Atlantic mono original) Edited July 6, 2005 by sidewinder Quote
patricia Posted July 7, 2005 Report Posted July 7, 2005 (edited) Land of the Midnight Sun - Al Di Meola Interesting *new* stuff, featuring a moog and some very interesting percussion. BUT, the bigger story is that I picked up twenty-five albums today, MINT condition for a single dollar for each record. The titles range all the way from three Jimmy Smiths to Kai Winding, to Getz, Eddie Harris, Ella Fitzgerald, Hank Jones, Count Basie, Benny Goodman, Rob McConnell, Jimmy Reed, Moe Kauffman, Dave Brubeck, Jimmy Witherspoon, 1959 Monterey Jazz Festival...... I'm forgetting a couple or so, but ONE DOLLAR EACH. My heart was racing as I sped through the tons of records, just brought into a thrift shop, that sells everything from clothes to furniture, to whatever. This is where I have found five of my JazzTones. I'm stoked!! Edited July 7, 2005 by patricia Quote

patricia Posted July 7, 2005 Report Posted July 7, 2005 . BUT, the bigger story is that I picked up twenty-five albums today, MINT condition for a single dollar for each record. ← wow !! now I'm GREEN ← I still haven't come down. Usually I find one or two jazz titles in OK, but not pristine condition. These are in new condition and as I flipped through them on the shelf there was another one after another one, after another one. WOW. This source is a charity shop and their standard price for LPs is a dollar each. It doesn't matter what the record is. Everything from really crappy tripe to somebody's entire Jazz collection. I have been going there for a couple of years and have also picked up my shelves there for cheap. Don't ignore these places. Although they have everybody's cast-off stuff, among those cast-offs are records. With talk of records making a comeback there is a little more traffic around them, but I show up early in the morning and it quite often pays off. I have asked the manager to keep a lookout for JazzTones and she, sensing these are collectables, agreed to set any aside for me if I am willing to pay THREE DOLLARS per disc. I said OK. Quote

clifford_thornton Posted July 8, 2005 Report Posted July 8, 2005 Pierre Favre/Irene Schweizer/Peter Kowald "Santana" (FMP) pretty heavy collective improvisation from a non-Cecil piano trio. "Feel Trio," indeed... wish I had the handmade private edition, though! Quote
