I have the same issue which isn't as iffy as other CBS pressings from that time. I was passing an Oxfam charity shop probably a decade ago and saw it in the window. Needless to say I parked up..

HutchFan Posted January 16 Report Posted January 16 A couple CDs that I ordered today via Discogs: Sonora Ponceña - Musical Conquest (Conquista Musical) (Inca, 1976) Ganelin, Chekasin, Tarasov - Con Anima / Concerto Grosso (Golden Years of New Jazz) CD reissue of two LPs originally released on Melodiya in the USSR; recorded in 1976 and 1978 Quote
T.D. Posted January 16 Report Posted January 16 Yesterday I intended to place a cdjapan order, had a cart ready in advance. But I overlooked the time difference, and the coupon I intended to use had expired (midnight 1/15 Japanese time). Oh well, I did save the money. Quote

Risk is significant items from the cart selling out in the meantime. As a chronic fence-sitter, it happens. I'd spent a bunch of money before year-end and understandably hesitated. Quote

I stumbled across a copy at one of my favorite Discogs retailers, so I snapped it right up. Having the @soulpope seal of approval, it was a "can't miss" buy! Quote

Believe it or not, I picked up a copy of that one a few years ago and have yet to give it a proper spin. Will resolve that forthwith ! On 1/15/2024 at 4:25 PM, Clunky said: Fine album.

It's nice when you come across those CBS/Realm albums for half-way sensible prices. One of my favourites is the Frank Ricotti, which I came across in Mole's 'Collectors' rack for a sensible £20. That was a couple of decades ago though. Quote

HutchFan Posted February 18 Report Posted February 18 (edited) Norma Winstone - Edge of Time (Argo, 1972) 2012 Wah Wah Records (Barcelona, Spain) reissue I was surprised to see a US-based seller on Discogs offering this LP for a very reasonable price -- so I jumped on it. Last summer, I had a chance to visit Wah Wah Records in Barcelona and picked up their vinyl reissue of Neil Ardley's A Symphony of Amaranths. It was beautifully done, so I'm looking forward to hearing this Norma Winstone LP. Edited February 18 by HutchFan Quote

mjazzg Posted February 18 Report Posted February 18 A lot of music by someone I don't know, Manuel Zurria https://ants4.bandcamp.com/album/fame-di-vento It was a recommendation from a trusted source on X and I do nearly always love new and contemporary music composed for flute Quote

I'd love to hear your impressions after you've had a chance to absorb the music. Quote

Thanks, I'll try and remember. I usually wait for the CDs to arrive rather than listen to the download so may be a week or so Quote
felser Posted February 20 Report Posted February 20 Dipping gingerly into buying a few downloads of titles I'll never see on CD. Today was 'Lookout Farm' , the great ECM album by Liebman, Beirach & Co. (they never came close to this again), and 'All That's Good', the obscure 1964 Freddie (Frederick on this release) Roach album on BN. Not classic but certainly interesting. Quote
T.D. Posted March 7 Report Posted March 7 Some new arrivals (HIcks, Mizuno) and watched items (incl Black Jazz titles @ $6.99) from "The Bastards": Walter Bishop Jr Coral Keys Art Blakey (with Billy Harper) Moanin John Hicks Live In Tokyo (solo 2CD) Rudolph Johnson Second Coming Shuko Mizuno World Of Shuko Mizuno -- Live In 5 Days In Jazz 76 Sirone Artistry Quote
