  1. the last 10-20 years or so?? Just curious, as I spend most of my time with re-issues I have no idea which label has been turning out the best new titles.
  2. Got it yesterday! Listening now. I'm going to love this set
  3. Top.. for one more time through. Thanks for looking!!
  4. That term means nothing to me. There is no agreed upon definition for it. IMHO audiophile recordings start at the recording session and continue through to the playback system. When an early Stax/Volt recording becomes an 'audiophile' re-issue it's just a selling point. There are only a few re-issue labels doing great work. Classic Records, Speakers Corner, Acoustic Sounds, and whatever Steve Hoffman is working on, are a few.
  5. I wish I had that recording, but I've never gotten around to getting it. I here it's one of the best. Not to be a smart ass , but if the recording is inaccurate you could reverse the channels on your stereo and it would be accurate.
  6. I couldn't disagree more! In my opinion the importance of a musician should be judged by the music he played, not by the number of recordings he made. Chaloff was one of the most significant improvisers on the baritone saxophone. I agree, but I get I get tired of listening to his 2 or 3 good LP's over and over again. As far as a baritone led session nothing tops Blue Serge, but then what? What he did on the baritone was pretty unique and I give him that, but I feel he was influenced by another sax player more than he influenced anyone else.
  7. I'm curious about his relationship/feelings about Shirley Scott, Gene Ammons, Eddie Davis and Mose Allison.
  8. How did you luck into them?? Not many left in the USA.
  9. Does not look like it.
  10. I think he gets plenty of attention for someone with such a small recorded legacy. As much as I like Blue Serge I do not rate him high at all do to his lack of production. Just because he is one of a few to lead with a baritone is not a reason for me to recommend him to friends. Had he done 6 or 7 good records my thoughts would be different.

  14. I bought one a few years ago. I think it was Cherry title. Man, did it suck. Sounded like it was mastered from a cassette copy. I sold it or took it back ASAP.

  17. "Sharks in the water...." Sonny Rollins "A Night at the Village Vanguard" BN 1581 Crap, he said in the 20 years. How time flies.
  18. Yep!
  19. Seems like Undergroundagent can 'take it' as well as 'dish it out'.
  20. Take your vote to connoisseur series500's thread.
  21. Oh!! There is the poll tab.
  22. Should Undergroundagent stay or go???? I vote stay. I think he has handled this situation quite well.
  23. I would contact Sundazed to get the answer to your question. I own about 15 Sundazed LP's and think they sound very good. All analog. Many of the recordings/tapes they have to work with were nothing special to begin (small labels, limited budget, etc..) with so they are limited on how good they can make them sound. Do not expect miracles. Their Stax/Volt re-issues sound as good as the few originals I have. Buy one and check it out.
  24. Mods need to lock/delete this one, too.

I may adjust by a few bucks or two if you want more than one LP. These are doubles or I have the original. Feel free to e-mail or PM with questions. I'll be glad to take another look/listen to the LP and make sure my grading is correct, if you are serious about getting it. I hate surprises as much as the next guy. The pics are not of my LP's.
