MILFORD GRAVES / DON PULLEN LP

[drumdoggy]

Hi! Newbie here! I have a used copy of "NOMMO" by Milford Graves & Don Pullen. LP and cover are in VG to EX condition. Played it once and didn't like it, and I'm a big Milford fan! Got it off of ebay for $80, will sell for $80 plus s&h. I'm located in Seattle, WA. PM me if interested.

uh oh!

calling uncle chuck!

[clifford_thornton]

That is a fair price.

I like it myself...

Really depends on the cover/pressing.

Personally I wouldn't pay that much for the Bolden cylinder.

[clifford_thornton]

Right, the suit-jacket cover is preferable.

Is this the cover?

[clifford_thornton]

That's volume 1, a whole 'nother story...

Nommo looks like this:

Mr. Thornton, I wasn't able to see the pics you posted. Don't know if anybody else had that problem.

Wish my scanner was working. Uh, so the cover on my copy of NOMMO is an all-white background on the front and back. In the middle of the front cover there's a picture of Milford sitting on the floor with a drum between his legs, while holding a drumstick in his left hand, and a tree branch in his right. On the the left-hand side of the picture, it says "Milford Graves" and on the right side, "Nommo." On the lower right hand side, "featuring Don Pullen."

Back cover: Middle left-hand side shows an upper body picture of Milford behind a drumset. To the right of the photo is the tracklisting and a few paragraphs by Nat Hentoff. And yes, it's on the SRP label. (SRP-LP 290)

Hope this helps.

Hope this helps.

sounds like you have the second of the two covers... (a pity since the first cover is really beautiful and the second is just looking ok...)

too bad its not out on cd.

[clifford_thornton]

It would be cool if both Nommo and Live at Yale were on CD. The total time would be a little over 60 minutes.

But whether Milford gives a shit about reissuing them - or spending the bread to have it done - is probably not likely.

The second cover is fantastic in my opinion. Unfortunately, it doesn't feature an image of Don Pullen.

[clifford_thornton]

That's the one I have... there's also an IPS reissue with a red label (same jacket).

The suits kill me though.

Is it safe to assume that nobody's interested?

Well, that is ceratainly great to know as I will post in other threads. But I'm also aware that this thread was posted in a "free market" area. And I must humbly admit that my copy of "NOMMO" is up for grabs since I'm currently unemployed and need the cash, in addiiton to me not diggin' the music.

[clifford_thornton]

EBay it, dude.

I have a copy already (love it), and don't really know anybody looking in my circle.
