J.A.W. Posted October 22, 2012 Report Share Posted October 22, 2012 (edited) The CDs are only £2 each (about $3.20 or €2.45 at today's exchange rates), but the minimum order is 10 CDs and you can only order 10 or 20 or 30 etc. CDs.

I am not familiar with his later stuff. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
king ubu Posted October 23, 2012 Report Share Posted October 23, 2012 The former is part of the sale (and looks interesting - I missed last year's sale, btw), the later is OOP, I think. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
David Ayers Posted October 23, 2012 Report Share Posted October 23, 2012 Can't be ten I want, but there might be if the website showed more information about each CD - at least personnel listings. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

GregK Posted October 25, 2012 Report Share Posted October 25, 2012 So do I want that braxton solo piano box? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
colinmce Posted October 26, 2012 Report Share Posted October 26, 2012 Sure. His piano music is nice to me: neither Cecilesque free nor modern classical dry. Just Braxton. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Stefan Wood Posted November 2, 2012 Report Share Posted November 2, 2012 (edited) Put in an order. Wanted to point out for the curious that the William Parker/Joelle Leandre cds are outstanding, wonderful duo bass music.

Matthew Posted November 2, 2012 Report Share Posted November 2, 2012 Any thoughts on The Golden Years of Soviet New Jazz? I've always been intrigued by these box sets. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
B. Clugston Posted November 2, 2012 Report Share Posted November 2, 2012 Any thoughts on The Golden Years of Soviet New Jazz? I've always been intrigued by these box sets. They are worth it, even at full price. An interesting shelf-clearing exercise of unreleased tapes and old Leo lps. At least one disc per box set is excellent. I highly recommend the Guyvoronsky/Volkov, Homo Liber, Orkestrion, Chekasin and Vysniauskas discs. Some interesting stuff on the Andrew Solovyev/Igor Grigoriev and Vapirov discs as well.

Swinger Posted November 3, 2012 Report Share Posted November 3, 2012 I have promised myself not to buy anything but I couldn't resist this wonderful sale so I ordered 40 cds , including all those Golden Years of the Soviet New Jazz (vol 1-4). I will buy more in December if there are any interesting cds left. 40 cds delivered to Finland only around 146 Euros. What a bargain Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I consider these 4 sets essential documents of late 20th century Soviet jazz/improv, especially vols I (Kuryokhin, Ponomareva, Vapirov) & IV (Ganelin members) Get these while you can, especially at these prices Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Stefan Wood Posted November 3, 2012 Report Share Posted November 3, 2012 (edited) The Soviet jazz discs are an acquired taste -- I'll probably be the only dissenting voice on those sets. But then again, I am not a fan of the Ganelin group either. I always found the Leo records catalogue to be daunting to explore, because of many of the artists on their label. One of the artists I did take a chance on are the Actis Band -- sounds like right up my alley for genre bending musical gynmastics. Or musical turrets...... The Golden Years series, on the other hand, are no brainers. The Jazz Bunker, African Tapes, Cassava Balls and the Sun Ras are all must haves. I was mildly tempted by the Anthony Braxtons but to be honest, his Arista years are the high points for me. Perhaps someone can set me straight on the Leos. Snakish featuring Wadadah Leo Smith looks promising, so I ordered a copy. All the Fonda/Stevens Group discs are recommended, but I prefer the FAB trio more (Billy Bang and Barry Altschul!!). Any other recommendation? Edited November 3, 2012 by Stefan Wood Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

clifford_thornton Posted November 3, 2012 Report Share Posted November 3, 2012 Just Paypal the amount to Leo's email address, and list the CDs you want in the message text by catalog number. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
