That makes a lot of sense. They said their next stock was due end Nov and would be 1500 so worth keeping an eye on Accidents do happen...

Stenson The Necks or The Knack?

Just found the card they gave me 'VDS', only web presence is Instagram. Had a good few hundred all Japanese stock. Jazz, Funk and other sections I didn't look at. Jazz was 50s through to new releases. Two I bought are NM, looked a pretty good set up. I stumbled across it whilst killing time after picking purchases up from WoE. They had the Texture Sextet which I have been after for ages.

World Of Echo and another on Columbia Road. The second is stocking Japanese imports exclusively and is split with a wine retailer.

Yes indeed. saw them play it live. Speake deserves a higher profile. I'm not even sure how he got that ECM date really. Me too now

As this seems to be turning into a bit of a Prince thread...I'm happy to say that I thought at the time, and still do, that he was a major talent producing some great albums - the run from 'Dirty Mind' through to 'Lovesexy' was one of the strongest of the time. He wrote some great songs, just try listening to 'Parade'. I was hearing and buying these as they came out and I always thought 'Purple Rain' was the weakest of that fine bunch though. Back to 80s Jazz, really looking forward to the blog as it runs through from the time I was starting to listen to Jazz from about 80/81 (hope that album's in the list )

Yes, I suspect as much. I read that BN have posted the cover on one of their social feeds with a 'watch this space' message so they probably want to tease it up a bit more

And for me it's Maupin's playing that makes the boxset. I love how we all hear things so differently, this would be a mighty boring place if we didn't, that's for sure

highly recommended to anyone who enjoys some Folk and those who might

£££ and space, no other reasons. Love the albums, all of them in their different ways and have them on LP and/or CD. I've really enjoyed the TP remasters and will be sorely tempted by this set

Me too now. What a version of 'Gypsy Woman'

Murakami owned and ran a Jazz club 'Peter Cat' in Tokyo. I've read a number of his novels and don't remember much Jazz featured, possibly in the 'Wind-Up Bird Chronicle'. not sure that's SF though.

listening to this, from 2016, on the recommendation of a friend and decided to Google Salim only to find this old thread Looks like he's still active, very little on Discogs. His son is a piano player who's recorded for Challenge Records https://www.ladepeche.fr/2021/08/06/abdu-selim-quartet-a-lauditorium-9717246.php And your Spanish is better than mine you'll get more from tis page than the bare bones that I managed https://clasijazz.com/clasijazz-big-band-profesional-abdu-salim-music-el-sendero-de-la-luz/
