The Traveller is great, you'll enjoy it I'm sure.

I have 20+Hampels but not that one...got me thinking. Sure it'll be good too

I'm looking forward to hearing them!  :) 

Just curious:  Among the Gunter Hampel albums in your collection, which two or three (or four) are your favorites?  I'm only just now getting started collecting his music, and I have no idea which ones are the most highly regarded.

Tough call but without overthinking it, here's six, couldn't get it any lower 😀

'8th July 1969'

'Wellen Waves- Berlin Soloflight' 

'Oasis' duet w. Jeanne Lee 

'That Come On Down' 

'People Symphony' 

'Heartplants' very early but very good

That being said I haven't been disappointed in any I've bought. I will be very interested to hear what you make of your imminent arrival.

Gunter Hampel + Jeanne Lee (Wergo)

8th of July 1969 (Birth)

Espace (Birth)

Music from Europe (ESP)

People Symphony (Birth)

Oasis (Horo)

Heartplants (SABA)

looks like I have 15 or so kicking around here, but those are some favorites...

 

Journey to the Song Within is really strong. I have it with a white cover & pics of Hampel and Murray among others... The Traveler is a beaut as well.

All the Things You Could Be Right Now if Gunter Hampel Was Your Neighbor

Some of my favorite Hampels from the early years haven't been properly issued -- the recording with School, Tchicai, John Stevens a.o.; Hampel/Schlippenbach/AMM...

Finally part 2 of my Japanese batch arrived today. Collective birthday gift from my whole family for which I am very, very greatful. 
Part from the Marion Brown I already owned the others on cd but as they are among my five star albums I still wanted to have a good vinyl copy.

Digging further into Hampel's sound-world:

Thanks again to @mjazzg and @clifford_thornton for the recommendations.  :tup 

 

I also ordered this LP:

Mi5qcGVn.jpeg

Along with Mike Westbrook, Graham Collier, and others, it seems like Mike Gibbs was part of a flowering of UK jazz composers in the late-60s and early-70s who focused on large ensembles.  I know and enjoy Gibbs' In the Public Interest, his collaboration with Gary Burton, but I'm wanting to explore a bit further. 

I wish Vocalion's CD reissue of Gibbs' two Deram LPs was still available.  The only US-based discogs seller who has it wants $48.  😲 . . .  That's too pricey for me.  Oh well.  At least both albums are available for streaming.

I remember when ‘Chrome Waterfall’ came out on vinyl, it was quite a popular release at the time. Gibbs had some crossover success - maybe getting music credits for ‘The Goodies’ comedy TV show helped !

Last time I saw him live he was conducting a youth orchestra as part of his 80th birthday celebrations, covering his own arrangements, must have been in 2017. Very enjoyable.

👍🏼 That's another good Hampel. How are you finding it?

And those Gibbs Dreams are special too
