Anyone else notice the blip on El Barrio about 4.35 in, at the end of Joe’s solo. Like someone has bolted together two different takes. Though there are no alternate takes here. It’s there on the RVG CD issue too though more noticeable on the Mosaic. Wonder if it’s on the original LP.

Great record, particularly side 2. Marable’s intro on ‘the boy next door’ is sublime. Giuffre working through his Rollins phase I think.
-
Remastering on this box set is beautiful. Recommended.

I too have sprung for this, having been impressed by the remastering on the Sonny Clark box set. On its way from Barcelona.

Early ‘50s London, Windrush generation. Great book. Selvon is a skilled writer and even manages a 10 page sentence without losing the reader.

I am currently listening to ‘the Straight Horn of Steve Lacy’. Roy Haynes’ drumming is phenomenal and comes through loud and clear, given the brilliant recording. Credit to engineer Bob D’Orleans.

I have recently returned to the Dexter 6CD set and it sounds great to me. None of the hot RVG CD remastering. Would work better with Dexter’s ramblings on a separate CD. Also I find it maddening working out which session equates to which LP. I am inclined to get out a biro and deface the box!

Great photo. Bill looks a dapper youngish man there. Thank you for posting that. He will be much missed here. RIP Bill, fellow Manc.

Lars Gullin/ Rita Reys - Lullaby in Rhythm. Rita sounds v Chris Connorish. Love Lars not accompanying but soloing throughout.

Another hard bop classic, west coast style.

A classic hard bop date. One of my favourites. Jenkins disappeared?

I have given the record another clean and it sounds a lot better. The Stan Tracey tracks are definitely the best on the record. The last three on side 2 are v good. As an aside Clem Alford, Amancio’s sitar player seems to have stopped writing to our local paper. Or been banned.

Just got the Sam Records reissue, ordered direct from Paris. A lot of love has been put into this. Great music and pressing. Interesting to see Palle Mikkelborg in the trumpet section. Recommended.
