Discs 3 and 4.

When were you last there? It’s probably a year since my last visit.

Paul Butterfield Blues Band East West I’m Cutting Out - Mike Bloomfield The Live Adventures of Mike Bloomfield and Al Kooper. Incredible album. Canned Heat (their first album) CH was steeped in the blues. Alan “Blind Owl” Wilson was something else. Their Woodstock performance was eye opening.

Just finished this.

I think they still have the dollar bins at Princeton.

Plus Canned Heat.

Actually, I think it did, at least in my area.

There are a few, but not many, copies on eBay at varying prices. 1800 were made.

I’ve been looking online and this one seems sold out everywhere. A hard one to find.

This store has the Ayler at 114. However, purchasing for non North Carolina residents is not available until this evening. https://lunchboxrecords.com/collections/rsd-drops

A lot of places seem to have the Ayler set after checking online. The people at Hoffman have posted a few sites that are selling their RSD material online. I can’t speak for other stores but the record shop in Summit NJ was very crowded yesterday. The wait lines were very long. It seems that after three years due to Covid, the crowds are back at RSD.

Tone Poet

Listened to it but doesn’t work for me.

From what I see on Discogs it looks like he does both. I can’t imagine a JM record with vocals.

I use to read his stuff but I found he tends to go on and on.

Cue TTK.

Never seen or heard of one.

The amount of teeth gnashing going on about Nate Chinen’s post is beyond comical.

A Biography of a Blues Legend, Five Decades in the Making “Mack McCormick’s long-awaited book about the musician Robert Johnson has arrived, in modest and expurgated form.”

RIP. Great magazine in its heyday.

Since there already was the Jazztet Mosaic, which was terrific, I’d doubt we’d see another Farmer Mosaic.

Are the Bird sets from a PD label?

When I posted that a few years ago, Mr. Sngry got very upset!

In this case legal and inexpensive doesn’t mean good. I expect we will now have another long post about copyright law in the EU.
