    yeah, I have one of those Savoys and enjoy it very much.

  2. Record Store Day - Black Friday 2019

    clifford_thornton replied to Brad's topic in New Releases

    meh. I assume the J.B.'s record (NowAgain) will be around so I'll grab it at some calmer point.

  3. Mal Waldron "Free At Last" ECM Extended Anniversary Edition

    clifford_thornton replied to soulpope's topic in Re-issues

    The original LP was a gatefold with scores contained in a nice booklet inside. Wonder if they'll replicate any of that?

  4. Marion Brown: Porto Novo

    clifford_thornton replied to Late's topic in Re-issues

    DA Music/Alan Bates. I assume it was just licensed to International Phonograph, and that license probably expired. I have the original Polydor issue of the Marion Brown, with a handsome gatefold cover, and it is indeed a wonderful, special session. I have the Polydor pressing of Paul Bley "In Haarlem" as well and it sounds pretty good.

    He was also in the Fine Wine Trio with Gene Perla and Bobby Kapp. Interesting combination of musicians.

    Nice looking BFT! I have the Ruff on LP, it's good. He is also a poet and now lives in Europe (exactly where I can't recall).

    Sad news. He was/is great.
