I'd buy one.  It's mostly a good, reasonably solid date -- though I seem to remember it being a tad bit wobbly in a few spots.

(This coming from an otherwise a Tolliver devotee=me.)

It's really good, but a relative disappointment given the personnel (Tolliver, Bartz, Hancock, Ron Carter, Joe Chambers) and era (1968).  'The Ringer' is the great Tolliver album pre-Strata East.  That being said, I'd love to have a CD of it.

Yeah, "relative disappointment" covers it.  It's a solid B+ date, but given the personnel I'd forgotten Herbie and Joe Chambers were both on it), it doesn't have quite the shine that quite a number of other dates both Herbie and Chambers were on together (not that they're the problem specifically).

I've got a burn of it -- I should spin it again soon (haven't in a good 5 years, at least).
