I'd was tempted enough to do some research and a found at least one reference to questionable sound quality. Is this the case?

Looks like you can't order direct from the label or Jackson'sown site. Only CD option is CDON who are always ridiculously expensive. I'll be waiting on an alternative source before I order

I had to miss that trio at Oto last night. Enjoy it. Drake and Parker are unbelievably good in a live context.I don't know Dikeman so will be interested to hear what you make of it

Birthday greetings, belatedly. Hope the day was at the very least Near Mint

Joshua Abrams - Magnetoception [Eremite]

Joe McPhee - Graphics {Hat Hut]

I love the idea that someone has a "Australian Jazz Orchestra" section in their collection.......can't be too many of them about outside the Antipodes. Full marks for such an eclectic taste Bev. I order mine strictly alphabetical (ex-librarian in me, I suspect) so my TUM releases don't huddle together like yours but I wish they did as they do look very nice like that. I also use the space saving sleeves and have found the only drawback is when I'm too greedy to space save and they get too squashed together which does then obscure the spine. But as Mjzee says above as their alphabetisized I always know where to look even if the spines aren't obvious

Niels, the Chamber 4 is very good Just back from Honest Jons with Konstrukt & Akira Sakata - Kaishi, Live at Kargart [Holiday Records] Enrico Rava Quartet - Wild Dance [ECM] Lloyd McNeill - Tanner Suite [Universal Sound reissue]

Thank you! and to continue.... I've a duplicate of 'The New Standard' - Jamie Saft, Steve Swallow, Bobby Previte https://www.rarenoiserecords.com/jukebox/ssp/tns/ UK or European home required. please PM

It's a lovely disc of slowly unfolding English folk music. Will post within Britain or Europe. PM me if you'd like either. Otherwise they go to the charity shop. Yes please Bev. I'm very happy to stray into outlying territory

Aretha prevents premiere http://www.theguardian.com/film/2015/sep/04/aretha-franklin-documentary-blocked-from-telluride-film-festival-by-judge also explains why doc wasn't aired sooner I think

Holy cow, me too! Only the best!

The Revolutionary Ensemble - The People's Republic [Horizon]

Gerry Hemingway - Kwambe (Auricle) I wonder whether this is the first recording of the Hemingway, Helias, Anderson trio. Appear on one track. rec 1978

Big Bad John by Jimmy Dean and they didn't call me John but whether I'm big or bad I'll let others decide. I wonder what the UK #1 was? Just checked the 'conceived' link and got Calcutta by Lawrence Welk and His Orchestra. So glad my folks weren't in the US

Don Ellis - New Ideas [Prestige]

how was it?

That's good news. I've enjoyed his two previous (very different) Delmarks a lot

Package just arrived from US. Should've contained LP and CD but only the LP in it. Not surprising considering that the package was open and you can see where the tape has been sliced open across the width of the box (customs or postal service?). The LP only survived through luck as the poly sleeve was partially secured by tape inside the box. Otherwise empty box. chalk this up to bad luck and reflect on how many international packages arrive complete and safe And yes, I too hate those US CD closures. How don't they drive you all mad?

couldn't Kamasi make it?

thank you

Ark building in London. Traditional Bank Holiday weather putting dampener on Carnival no doubt, shame.

Sirone - Artistry [Of The Cosmos] never tire of this great album

I suspect the timing of 'Amin' has been transposed. It's 9:51 on disc one so 13:57 would be a likely alt on disc 2, no? That would make disc 2 about 80 mins long by my reckoning whichever way it stacks up I'm mighty grateful we're getting the original LP let alone how many minutes of extra material
