Posted 31 Oct 2015 Ovary Lodge (RCA)Excellent record - I don't think it's ever made it to CD. I bought it around '73 after hearing Tippett on the King Crimson records and seeing Robert Fripp's name on the credits. Totally confounded me but over time it worked its magic. A CD would be nice - a lot of the record is very quiet, my vinyl copy very noisy! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Posted 31 Oct 2015 I have a SABA pressing of that Jaki Byard Vol 1 - very nice. Picked up from a store in Stuttgart at reasonable cost as well (shame that the store is no longer physically 'there').

Totally confounded me but over time it worked its magic. A CD would be nice - a lot of the record is very quiet, my vinyl copy very noisy! Might be a victim of the 72/73 oil crisis. There was a bit of deterioration in the quality of vinyl used on LPs of that era, which seems to be an issue with UK RCAs in my experience. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Thinking about it I think I bought it around Easter '74 which was about 8 months after the Yom Kippur War...my first 6 months at university had that whole crisis as a backdrop. I certainly recall vinyl getting thinner and more dodgy. That's when I learnt to hate it!!!! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Funnily enough though, the quality of the UK CBS pressings seemed to go up. My Miles twofers of that period still sound superb. Today's findsArt Farmer 'To Duke With Love' (French East Wind). Blows away my old Inner City copy from back in the day.Humphrey Lyttleton 'Blues In The Night' (UK Columbia, mono). Another Lansdowne Series LP, immaculate condition.

Posted 2 Nov 2015 Steve Lacy - Eronel (Horo). Solo Monk compositions. Jimmy Deuchar - Pub Crawling (Contemporary). I listened to this once when I found it about a year ago, then forgot about it. That won't happen again - excellent writing and playing from Mr. Deuchar and an all-star British cast. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Posted 2 Nov 2015 Wade Walton - Shake 'Em on Down (Prestige Bluesville mono). An excellent album by the Clarksdale, Mississippi bluesman, recorded at Van Gelder studio in 1962. Mr. Walton autographed my copy at his barber shop in Clarksdale about 20 years ago. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Posted 2 Nov 2015 Pete Brown/Jonah Jones - Jazz Kaleidoscope (Bethlehem). The Pete Brown session on side one is just delicious. It was originally a 10" LP; Joe Wilder is on trumpet.
