Chico Hamilton and nowadays, Mike Reed

Most of his catalogue... Same for me with added earplugs

Sonny Rollins - The Bridge [RCA Victor, Canada 1962]

John Tchicai - Cadentia Nova Danica [Polydor, UK 1968] such engrossing music that cuts through the slightly distant live sound. Must have been great to have been in attendance.

Both my local Morrisons and Sainsbury's have noticeably empty shelves.

I streamed some of it before pulling the trigger. Sounds interesting and the Coltrane album is really hitting the spot

Karl Berger

the 2021 reissue

Wow! Where did that come from, just found it on Spotify. Thanks for posting David 'Fathead' Newman - Davey Blue [HighNote] mentioned on another thread recently, lovely album

It is

And there I was all ready to give the album a chance to convince me of Adams/Pullen (I know, I know....) and you go and mention Ken "Hushpuppies" Clarke

I think VDS is great too. The flower market was crazy 30 years ago when I stopped going because it was too busy Doing the search again you get these - Kristina (used to be in Dalston I remember), Tome, Lion Coffee & Records, Jelly Records, Lobster Records, Vinyl Pimp. I guess a couple could be labels thinking about it now And moving slightly beyond the initial search map there's Harry's Record Shop, Play Vinyl, Love Vinyl, Stranger Than Paradise. I know the last two

Mr Nessa tells that story somewhere on the board, I'm sure. He ended up with a consignment to sell as payment iirc

sounds like the strongest J Jazz series issue for a while

That is keen pricing indeed, I need to make a trip. When I did a Google Maps search there were something like 5 other record shops highlighted on the same page. Hackney is vinyl heaven these days. Must apply for my hipster passport...

That's interesting, thanks. They've been adding tons of stuff if their Instagram posts are anything to go by. Shop looks fantastically haphazard too, like ten years ago perhaps. That's a nice Lindberg

Wow! Where did that come from, just found it on Spotify. Thanks for posting

Great read, thanks for posting. The heartbeat thing reminds me of Milford Graves

Couple of these have cropped up in London in the last few years. Also it's noticeable that once used-only shops are now stocking new releases

But they're such thoughtful and constructive sighs...

Thanks, I'll have a look around

That's good to hear. I only have this and two with Satoh, 'Canto Of Aries' and one I can't recall its title. I'm a bit wary of a MOR tendency that I have no evidence to support. Any pointers for others? Now onto this recent discovery. Some Billy Harper I didn't know about. One of the weirdest band names ever New York Saxophone Madness - Danjiri [CAC, Japan 1985]

Toshiyuki Miyama & The New Herd - Orchestrane, New Herd Plays John Coltrane [Denon, Japan 1977]
