Dewey Redman - Look For The Other Black Star

[colinmce]

I noticed that Black Lion Vaults has an album of outtakes from the 1966 Look For The Black Star session that I don't believe have ever been released anywhere else. Worth checking out.

Should note this is only on streaming platforms, I found it on Spotify.

Looks like it can be purchased from Amazon and itunes. I'm not a big digital guy, I only use Spotify at work and in the car (no more CD player ), so I don't know if these are actual downloads or cloud-based or what.

gotcha, thanks -- actually, our 2020 Subaru came with a CD player. No shit.

As mentioned above it can be purchased (as download) from Apple or iTunes but only as MP3 files

pity about the lack of file format - find it hard to justify paying out that much for MP3 files

If they were available in FLAC, WAV, AIFF formats, I would definitely be buying (this is a wonderful session & alternative material would probably be up to standard too)

I normally burn my downloads to disc (usually AIFF format) & listen on my HiFi setup rather than listening to MP3 files on my desktop computer (Harmon Kardon "Jellyfish" speakers.

It's a pity the recent Japanese Freedom/Muzak "paper sleeve" edition of "Look at the Black Star" didn't add this to the original album, making it a 2CD release just like the Dudu Pukwana one from the same series ("Diamond Express+6") that added previously unreleased Freedom material from the same sessions
