I didn't buy it but perusing a local shop today, they had an original copy of the Rendell/Carr Quintet  'Dusk Fire' for sale.

Only £850 !

Fitting to the album title 😁 ....

Looked like a nice copy, an unexpected sighting of what is a beautiful LP.

I ended up consoling myself with a nice Japanese pressing of Chris Connor 'At The Village Gate'. At £8 it fitted my retiree budget !

The shop also had a couple of Ann Burton Japanese Sony LPs. I seem to recall that you are an Ann Burton fan @Soulpope - recommended?

If appreciating the voice of Chris Connor you should dig "Blue Burton" and "Ballads & Burton" ....

Yes, those are the two I think. Thanks for that- I'll earmark them for the next  visit.

T.D. - I'd love to hear your impressions of these -- particularly the Yamashita Trio -- after you've had a while to absorb them.

 

I ordered these 2 LPs on Discogs yesterday:

If I can remember, I'll post something when it arrives.

All three of the tunes are on Youtube (though seemingly not the whole album continuously), so I was able to audition the whole thing once I got the DG arrival notice. 

Here's a Youtube link for the first selection. Once I started playing that, the algorithm displayed the next track in the right column, etc.

Once a much sought release (in it's scarce original form) .... stimulating music ....

It is but I must say I enjoy much of his other works better. I could live without the vocals on Hannibal's albums. I love to hear him live: Antibes, Berlin and Lausanne. The MPS is out of this world and I dig Angels of Atlanta as well.

Agree in general ....

Well, it was cheap and I hadn't heard of it. 😉 Don't expect it to be Hannibal's best, but listened to some on youtube and the vocals didn't turn me off too much.

I just pre-ordered this LP from Dusty Groove:

louiss_eddi_ourkindof_101b.jpg

I've wanted to have a physical copy of this for years.  :) 

I first heard it after downloading the music from the Magic Purple Sunshine blog.  Remember that?!? . . .  Along with this Eddy Louiss LP, that blog provided me with my first discovery of Martial Solal's music (and many others as well).  Before streaming and before Discogs, downloading from blogs was pretty much the only way one could hear the majority of the MPS catalog (particularly if you lived outside of Europe).  Aside from a few titles issued on PAUSA or Verve, it was almost entirely unavailable.

Nice one, such a good album and such a good feeling when you snag a long sought after

Went to the huge vinyl and cd fair in the city of Den Bosch. Did not have much luck last years but this year was a succes. There are 46 items on my current wantlist (well uh 37 now) and I found 9 and for reasonable prices. This was the first time prices were mostly round the Discogs median. Very happy with these 9 beauties :)
