Thanks, I will! I didn't even know it was out until I recently saw it in a local store!

I have the Elsie Bianchi and the first Mombasa - both fine! Will need to get the second Mombasa as well, eventually!

I ordered these, I hope they were good choices: Sounds Of Harlem 60336610652-HEP 1065 Sounds of Harlem 60336610662-HEP 1066 Groovin' High in 60336600152-HEP 15 1948-Transcripti 60336600172-HEP 17 [Claude Thornhill] They All Had Rhy 60336600482-HEP 48 I'd still love to get the Norvo and Wilson series, and more of the Thornhill...

Some earlier threads: http://www.organissimo.org/forum/index.php?showtopic=2499 http://www.organissimo.org/forum/index.php?showtopic=10489 Mario Pavone thread: http://www.organissimo.org/forum/index.php?showtopic=24595 I just looked at the rat, nothing much essential said about the box, except ravings by D.D., chaney, yours truly...

This is a mighty fine box, just in case anyone has doubts! It has been discussed in the funny rat thread and possibly elsewhere, too, and quite favourably so. Pretty intense playing by all involved (mostly Chapin's trio with the great bass of Mario Pavone, sometimes extended with some additional horns).

The Doran, Om (Leimgruber) and Hans Koch's Accélération are a couple of Swiss jazz classics - fine stuff! The Oliver Lake/Trio 3 & Irene Schweizer is a live recording from a couple of years back. I attended their Zurich concert and was rather pleased!

ah wait, I thought this was Rava WITH the Jarrett trio... would have been interesting I guess, to see Jarrett with some horn player again after all these years!

I guess the wonderful Colin Vallon trio would fit the bill as well. "Ailleurs" on hatOLOGY: Also Malcolm Braff's trios (the other one being the group BraffOesterRohrer): This is piano in I guess various traditions, Randy Weston would be an obvious point of reference, even more since Alex Blake is on this one, but Braff is his own man, methinks, and a marvellous pianist!

Yes please! If anyone could post those notes, that would be appreciated!

joyeux anniversaire! :party:

I won't replace anything... but "Spring" is great, in case you don't have it (I have the old US edition). "Stop and Listen" is good, too - I'll keep my Conn though. Have them all in in one way or another, all good ones I'd say. The Silver as a wee bit better than his usual album, I think (I tend to think of those Mitchell/Cook albums a "run of the mill" a bit...)

Kneebus? Ugly Beauty is the title of the album!

Sad news

Oh, don't be afraid, I won't dump it! Thanks for that recommendation!

I will think of you as soon as I can properly handle my new burning software ... and I haven't forgotten about the cats and the mouse...

Flurin I've just bought one of these Lenco 75s to play 78s and 45 rpm singles on. It needs a new arm. This site has all the possible information you could possibly want re Lenco problems, idler wheel flat would be my guess. Lenco Lovers !! Thanks for that link, will look at it... I guess I'll need to look up a lot of words, I don't know all these technical terms... next step then would be to find someone nearby who fixes these things. That could be quite a task, these days. They do sell new turntables again all over, but no one seems to repair any technical device anymore, just throw it away!

Hm, I have some Blue Notes on both CD and LP, like Griffin's "The Congregation" - though the CD is the RVG while the LP is the Conn, I gather that should not influence the playing time, but then who knows. As for 45, I'd still not have anything to compare it with a CD... but if anyone wants to unload his single of "Moanin'" or that bonus track on Adderley's "Sump'n Else", I'd not reject such an offer...

some Fantasy booklets were incomplete or with such repeated and missing sections... I have a twofer (ca. 2001 or 2002, can't remember what it was, but someone else once asked for a scan of the page in question and I added a request there as well... to no avail) where one page of the notes was just plain black. And the RVG of that Earland "Black Talk" album had a repeated section of the notes and missed the final parts instead.

I just got "All the Gin Is Gone" to listen from a friend at work... looking forward! Also I might have to look for "Out of the Forrest"...

hm, I think actually it's a tad too slow - but I only have 33 rpm albums, so I can't really check... though of course I could have one run at 45 and then do the math... but in the end it only matters in case I'd do vinyl rips (which though I'd like to do now and then), if I'm just listening, I won't notice it really. I can't remember what was fixed back when it was fixed, but I think it was something about the motor, so maybe it's still got the same problem after all and it wasn't properly fixed.

Nice album; no long trax. MG yup, forgot about that... how about this one: Hugh Masekela - Home Is Where the Music Is I'm lovin' it!

I have one of these: Lenco L-75 any good? it was fixed years ago by a local store (long since disappeared - hifi shops went downhill before music shops will... only those catering hi-end customers seem to survive, as well as the huge cheap discounters) - anyway, it seems to have some speed issues, but I have no idea how to fix that, or rather how I could adjust that other than just have it running slightly faster than at 33 rpm (it allows continuous setting of speed but there are "steps" or whatever you'd call that at 16[?], 33, 45 and 78)

this one? I'd love to hear side a of this album - side b is on that Coltrane Complete Bethlehem 2CD set (which is all material by Art Blakey groups in addition to side b of the Winner's Circle album) edit: the link doesn't seem to show, check it out here: http://www.discogs.com/release/1181811

Some of those Robin Kenyatta things would also fit - Girl from Martinique for instance! And another for "Elegant Soul" (and "Soul Symphony" or how that other recent Rare Groove by Gene Harris was called again). Both very nice, I found!

Yeah, but the Yurpeen Universal/Concord CDs only seem to include one of those US discs... had all three been around in the past Concord/OJCs sales, I would have grabbed them.
