clifford_thornton Posted October 17, 2008 Report Posted October 17, 2008 Tried to nab the Cecil but my snipe was a few dollars too short. There is another one up there however. Quote
michel1969 Posted October 17, 2008 Report Posted October 17, 2008 (edited) Paid $40 for mine about eight years ago. This seems higher than usual: Dolphy on Debut Really 40 $ ? Even eight years ago, it is was a good deal. I 've always heard that this one was highly collectable among Euro jazz fans. I remember that Paris Jazz Corner had this one for sale on one of their auction. Don't know how high it went up... Edited October 17, 2008 by Michel Quote
clifford_thornton Posted October 17, 2008 Report Posted October 17, 2008 (edited) $40 for the Colbeck, not the Dolphy... Edit to add: a great little record, the Colbeck, but far fewer give a shit about it than Eric and Erik. Edited October 17, 2008 by clifford_thornton Quote
michel1969 Posted October 17, 2008 Report Posted October 17, 2008 (edited) If you want to see something REALLY REALLY REALLY RARE... First copy i see on Ebay. En route to the Yen kingdom, of course (crisis ? what crisis ?) Edited October 17, 2008 by Michel Quote

En route to the Yen kingdom, of course (crisis ? what crisis ?) The buyer (rainbow-mountain) won my NM George Wallington Cafe Bohemia on Progressive a few years ago for $700 USD. He owns a paper mill in Japan, I believe? Quote

Chuck Nessa Posted October 18, 2008 Report Posted October 18, 2008 Cuscuna sold one of my Art Ensemble lps for $211(Les Stances a Sophie)! Wonder what I could get for a sealed, first pressing of People in Sorrow found at my parent's house? Quote
clifford_thornton Posted October 18, 2008 Report Posted October 18, 2008 I think I got mine for about $30 several years ago. I would guess now around $40 or $50 if it's sealed. Quote

sidewinder Posted November 7, 2008 Report Posted November 7, 2008 Guesses on what this Lee Morgan will go for? Don't know - but it is already going for way, way more than my copy, which has a far better condition sleeve and at least as good vinyl. Quote

michel1969 Posted December 10, 2008 Report Posted December 10, 2008 And what about this one ? It won't sell, as the guy asks too much for bidding start. Bud anyway, here we have one of the true rarest jazz record. Quote
clifford_thornton Posted December 10, 2008 Report Posted December 10, 2008 Yeah, I have that on CD. It's real fine. Much rarer than any BN! Quote
michel1969 Posted December 10, 2008 Report Posted December 10, 2008 Yeah, I have that on CD. It's real fine. Much rarer than any BN! Rumors are that a copy of this one sold for 12000 $ years ago at Paris Jazz Corner. True or false i don't know. I've seen another copy auctionned at PJC in their 2002 catalogue. Don't know how much it solds eventuelly. But given the hysteria that was surrounding those auctions i believe it went up very high. My plan is to try to find it at my local flea market, for around 1 €. 2 or even 3 would still be a fine price. Quote
