That looks interesting. How is it? I don't think EWF get the recognition they deserve

Just read the synopsis. Powerful stuff if pulled off well

Imagine if that was even relevant. Of course he can think whatever he wants to. I haven't suggested he can't nor do I intend to.

That presupposes any were bought it the first place and if they were then it's a personal choice

Herbie Mann - Returns To The Village Gate [Atlantic, 1963] Imagine if there was more Village Gate Herbie than already released to be heard. Love these albums

Isn't it just the £30 for four discs as the minimum order, postage included for RoW? That's how I read it The prices listed are for a 4 disc bundle, minimum purchase is one bundle. I paid £15 for 4 delivered discs

Placed my order. Leo Feigin is 85, deserves a retirement.

Thanks. I watched the short documentary and did some further digging. Really interesting sound, sometimes I find the rock element a bit too dominant but more often the fusion works. It obviously sounds very different to some of the Tuareg bands but does put me in mind of them for some reason It's a treasure trove, thanks almost entirely to @kh1958

Yes, Confront CDs are all like that

Never been keen on Gayle since I learnt of his homophobia which I believe was in evidence at one of his Oto gigs as well as well documented elsewhere. But that's just me. No doubt other musicians I listen to have abhorrent views too but maybe not as part of their performances. As you were with the discussion of his music

Whoa! I've never heard of Witch before

Intriguing, may be tempted by this although the span of years makes it less attractive somehow As long as I don't buy the LP in the final photo

Add me to the completely love crew too

Yeah, it was stifling. Also miss the Red Rose, some great gigs and also union meetings attended there

I was at the Shipp Red Rose gig, great evening. Needless to say I wasn't at the Dalaschinsky but it sounds like an impressive event

That's just brilliant

Great watch, thanks for posting it.

I am. Preorder up on BC. Strong line up Always a good thing to have a new chapter of this, can't wait

I hope you enjoy it

That sounds so bad I'm almost tempted to stream it

I had no idea that exists, luckily by the sounds of things I saw The Stray Cats live when they first appeared, one of the best live bands I've seen

Sound quality is weakest on disc 1 (I'd say acceptable given the historical nature and importance). Beyond that disc I'd say it is uniformly good. There are only about three tracks on later discs where quality drops. These are live recordings though and probably not recorded for release. This is a treasure trove of great music across a spectrum of styles all featuring great work by Skidmore. If that interests you, I'd say buy without qualm, you'll get hours of great music with less than an hour in less than perhaps ideal sound quality.

The Norman Yoke 😄

Yes, I agree it's early days. Just goes to show how quickly most things turn up Thanks, I tend to agree. . It'll probably appear over on the east coast at some point then leap over the water from there. PayPal covers for 180 days so may as well give it a good chance

I'd hoped not to have to post in this thread but... Purchased an LP on 23/5 from Tacoma, took a couple of days to get to Carson (via Seattle) where it sat for a week enjoying a Californian rest. Since 2/6 it's been 'Moving through the network' Thankfully covered by PayPal and a helpful, so far, seller. when do I give up on it?
