ejp626 Posted March 1, 2013 Report Posted March 1, 2013 Rudresh Mahanthappa Gamak Just became aware of this. I'll probably try to snag it one way or another soon. Cheaper for me to import it from the UK than apparently any other option. Quote
sidewinder Posted March 1, 2013 Report Posted March 1, 2013 Cheaper for me to import it from the UK than apparently any other option. There was a time when CDs in Canada were much cheaper than the UK and pretty well anywhere else but the US. What happened over there? Quote
niels Posted March 1, 2013 Report Posted March 1, 2013 Christ Potter The Sirens I know some people think he's heaven sent as a saxophonist but that's going a bit far unconvincing album for me, sounds better in the passages when the leader's not playing by and large - but I nearly always have a "technique over content" reaction to Potter (exceptions seem to be with Motian) I found the album dissapointing also. I never really got into Potter, but since I loved his contribution to the "Lost in a Dream" album and Eric Harland is playing on this one, I had quitte high hopes. For the most time the only thing i was thinking though while listening to this albums was "now shup up Potter, so I can hear the rest of the band! For some reason his tone just doesn't grab me at all, and on this album I found the sound of his sax mixed/mastered? way to loud in comparrison with the rest of the group.As for what I bought; two very nice "Blue Note in a box" Liberty vinyl pressings of two of my alltime favorite albums: Quote

coooltrane Posted March 5, 2013 Report Posted March 5, 2013 Support your local music store. I know I did, today. Quote
The Magnificent Goldberg Posted March 6, 2013 Report Posted March 6, 2013 Couple of nice downloads from Amazon UK Buddy Tate meets Abdullah Ibrahim - Chiaroscuro - very, very nice indeed! Mory Djeli Dienne Kouyate - La flamme de la verite - TWS - MDDK has a fabulous voice! I've got 5 of his now. Pity there's no info with Amazon's downloads; don't know how old this is, but probably less than ten years. MG Quote
The Magnificent Goldberg Posted March 7, 2013 Report Posted March 7, 2013 The first 2 of this 5 CD set turned up this morning Fats Domino - The early Imperial singles 1950-52 - Imperial (Ace UK) Fats Domino - The Imperial singles 1962-64 - Imperial (Ace UK) My goodness, this is good stuff. Got a fair bit of the first set and used to have some of vol 5 back in the day, but the stuff I didn't hear before is as great as the classics! MG Quote

Noj Posted March 10, 2013 Report Posted March 10, 2013 In the wake of his passing, I noticed I didn't have much Dave Brubeck so I picked up Jazz Impressions Of New York, Jazz Impressions Of Japan, and Time Further Out. Quote

The Magnificent Goldberg Posted March 11, 2013 Report Posted March 11, 2013 The rest of my Fats Domino Imperial singles set turned up today Volume 2 - 1953-56 - (Ace UK) Vol 3 - 1956-58 - Ace UK Vol 4 - 1959-61 - Ace UK These are joyful all right. So glad Ace finished this series and I could get 'em all. Also this Aminata Kamissoko - Malamine - Djenne Music (Sterns) This is not THE Aminata Kamissoko, who has made several great albums in Guinea, but AN Aminata Kamissoko, from Mali. I got this cheap (less than 4 quid inc post) from an Amazon seller, thinking it was THE Aminata Kamissoko. But I'm not disappointed. This one is very good and turns out to be Ami Koita's auntie.

BillF Posted March 18, 2013 Report Posted March 18, 2013 Downloaded tracks to fill gaps in my Pres collection: 1949-52 sessions on Savoy and Verve. Tracks from this, too - now an expensive rarity on CD: Quote
BillF Posted March 20, 2013 Report Posted March 20, 2013 (edited) Recreated this EP by buying the four tracks as downloads and burning them to disc. Beautiful stuff! Edited March 20, 2013 by BillF Quote
