You're really giving me itchy purchase finger with these Owls 😀

👍

Thanks again. I'll definitely investigate further. I love vibes so not too sure why Friedman has largely passed me by Just realised the Tidal one is not 'Of The Wind's Eye' but 'Shades Of Change' with Geri Allen which is a pretty good thing as it stands

Thanks, just found it on Tidal so will try before I buy

That looks interesting. I have a Double Image album and the one with Chet but no more Friedman, worth investigating?

That's a masterpiece, beautiful. It's difficult to go wrong with Togashi though Playing here: Joe Chambers - Samba de Maracatu, first listen and the production seems really boomy. Music is arresting

Oh yes of course, my clue is in the thread title 🙂

Idiosyncratic brilliance...

👍🏼 That's another good Hampel. How are you finding it? And those Gibbs Dreams are special too

That looks interesting, thanks for posting. I'd have liked a complete set covering those releases more though

No major warping issues on any of my recent purchases of new issues except one that came the furthest, from Australia. Biggest warp I'd ever seen, looked horrible when played, sounded OK but I wasn't keeping it. Label replaced it immediately. I'm with Sidewinder, if it effects the sound or just looks too much of a wave it goes back. A very slight hardly noticeable warp survives.

The last great album Van made as far as I'm concerned, right up there with his best

Not sure the Captain was ever striving for literal descriptors 😄

Lakecia Benjamin - Phoenix

I need to get a copy of that

'In Berlin' a favourite, the other's pretty special too

The discogs listing has been on my radar for a while with the hope that someone will either reduce the price or another will be listed at a more reasonable price No cricket for me but I did attend the festival acouple of times in the early 80s, other recreational activities...

One day I'll find a copy not for silly money

Another vote for 'Stone Flute'

How did I forget 'Music From Europe', has to be included

Tough call but without overthinking it, here's six, couldn't get it any lower 😀 '8th July 1969' 'Wellen Waves- Berlin Soloflight' 'Oasis' duet w. Jeanne Lee 'That Come On Down' 'People Symphony' 'Heartplants' very early but very good That being said I haven't been disappointed in any I've bought. I will be very interested to hear what you make of your imminent arrival.

Too many to list. Coincidentally listening to 'Salute To The Flute', nice run of tunes on Side 2. And earlier I was listening to 'Riggt Now' whilst cooking and wondering where this album gets filed in the magnificent filing system at @Teasing the Koreanmansions.

The Traveller is great, you'll enjoy it I'm sure. I have 20+Hampels but not that one...got me thinking. Sure it'll be good too

But OJC didn't go that route and released all those titles including 'Eastern Sounds', as has been pointed the music is readily available elsewhere in numerous formats, including streaming. So I can't see that the Craft edition is in any way detrimental to the fans of the music or anyone who wants to see if they like it or not. Craft are operating in the post-OJC market offering a niche product to a niche market, if they were doing so contemporaneously to the OJC reissue campaign and in some way preventing the CD reissue then you would have a point. But we're not time-travellers and that didn't happen. That there are so many for sale sealed just goes to show that there's always people out there who will try and play that market, not very successfully it would seem as they remain unsold.
