Lou Donaldson Signifyin'/Possum Grease

[bertrand]

Is this two-fer legit or only in Europe? What is source for the tapes?

Thanks,

Bertrand.

As it's on Groove Hut my guess is it's legit in Europe. Nice cd though.

I have it and suspect only the second to be true. About the tape provenance I'm not sure. I would say it's a needle drop. The label is Fresh Sound-related, so...

And IIRC the tile of the second album is Possum Head.

Yes, very nice. Especially since Lou Donaldson is paired a.o. with Big John Patton. And about its legality and the origin of the tapes I think it might be Europe only and no tapes as it's on one of those "Andorran" labels.

Dang, I am not a big fan of needle drops, but how else can one get this music?

Buy the LPs

Actually, I suspect Universal Japan may have issued them on CD way back.

Both released on a 1992 Vogue CD entitled "Midnight Soul":

And sounds really good.

A possible alternative could be Donaldson's A man with a horn

with Jack McDuff or Big John Patton and Grant Green, released as a Conn in 1999. It's in the same vein as those two Argo albums.
