Binker & Moses - Dem Ones [Gearbox]

possibly even better than very good......I must give it another spin

The Talkin' Loud connection's no surprise. He was big in London's Jazz dance/Acid Jazz club scene. It's how I first heard him and then bought Rah

LondonJazzNews reporting his death too http://www.londonjazznews.com/2015/10/rip-don-rendell-1926-2015.html also that of Mark Murphy

and I've only just heard it, thanks to Steve's advocacy on this board. Live will be explosive

James Newton - Flute Music [Flute Music Productions] arrived today. Been after this for some time. Sounding good and minty

I think it very much depends on what you're buying and to a lesser extent where you're buying. I started re-buying vinyl about 5 years ago predominantly to get the ECM titles that had never been CD released. Except for particular titles, often the the first ten or so releases, I could buy most for £10. However I got the bug and in no small part to the "what vinyl are spinning now" thread started buying FMP. Po Torch, Ogun, Incus and other improv/free jazz titles. Buying these I'm spending upwards of £20 on most NM titles and I will consider £40 and above for something I really want that's in good condition. However an 80s Stanley Cowell LP cost less than £10 inc postage from Italy recently Analysis of Discogs pricing history does suggest a steady price increase, not many sellers will list below the highest historical price (no surprise there). Ebay is always more costly (unless you're lucky with a no-one else bids listing = £9 for Gil Evans' Parabola felt lucky) and it never fails to amaze me why folk make higher bids that the current Discogs price for equivalent grade LPs, London shops are Discogs and Popsike savvy and prices reflect that fact Interestingly it would appear anecdotally from posts elsewhere on the board that the prices I'm paying are often higher than US boardees have paid for these titles. Wherever you are they do take up the room, I agree

? Whenever I come across a clean ESP pressing, I feel like there's something wrong with it. Yes, it doesn't feel right. Listening to New York Art Quartet now which is surprisingly blemish free Globe Unity Orchestra - Jahrmarkt/Local Fair [Po Torch] first listen.Side 2 might just be the maddest piece of music I've heard in a very long time

yes please

Ginkai is beautiful

that Umlaut is a fine release

having spent some time on his website, it's a goldmine of potentially very interesting music

That's some interesting line ups indeed. Very tempting. Thanks for highlighting its existence

welcome aboard Harbour thanks for posting this reminder of these releases. I've just ordered Poesy, In Concert and the one with Henderson. Very much looking forward to hearing Poesy and not having to pay the vinyl premium on it (and the others)

Josh Berman - A Dance And A Hop [Delmark] always happy to have more Berman. I wish he'd visit London

I think the "or more" is standard layout for all Bandcamp pages.I don't recall ever seeing one without that option

Paul Bley Quintet - Barrage [ESP] complete with lovely thudding pressing fault for authenticity

you need to buy another three to participate in this thread. and buy all the CD versions as well.. I know that......withdraws to corner, head hung in shame......... I'd better join you as I only have one vinyl edition ( NYC mono ?) NYC mono means you don't have to go quite so deeply into the corner, I suspect

ABs have looked unstoppable, both individually and as a team. However SA have looked like an immovable mountain so their clash will offer one hell of a contest Shame for Scotland who played so well to stay close to the Wallabies. Sometimes the ref is the most important person on the pitch and he surely was with that decision I loved the way that Argentina walloped the Irish, who I was supporting (after England's dismal showing it was time to shout for the country of my grandparents' birth).I'd very much like to see them take on ABs in the final Is the all Southern hemisphere semis real that big a surprise? Maybe Argentina but the other three were always likely to be there

Jackie McLean - Destination Out! {BN Liberty] my only copy

Deborah Solomon - Utopia Parkway, The Life & Work Of Joseph Cornell

FB not required it would seem . Fun indeed. I've only ever seen this band once, about ten years ago, and the thing that stood out most for me on the night was Blade. He did something very similar that night too

Yusef Lateef - The Phoenix And The Centaur [Prestige] Woody Shaw - Love Dance [Muse] the first made me think of the second. Not sure why, maybe the brass voicings. Anyway both are my favourite leader dates by each musician I think, for today at least
