I'm not if this is the same State side but here in UK Canon's own carts will cost me around £44 for a set, versus £14 for generic carts from an online supplier in the Jersey tax haven. I have little doubt that the Canon carts combined with Canon paper ( critical) provide really outstanding results but at a cost that cannot be justified for school project and travel documents that the printer needs to churn out on a regular basis. So I use cheap carts such as these on the family Mac but nice Canon ones on my photoprinter.

maybe it's because I'm not a musician but I've never noticed any flaws in this album. It remains one of my favourite Mobley sessions . good charts and instrumentation different from the usual post-sidewinder fare.

the Dean Ninesense on HUX which comes from BBC broadcast tapes is good but I do find the sound a little harsh. Interesting ensemble.

I've a few of the LPs (UK issues) and don't have a problem with the sound. I must fin my copy of the Alan Grant disc as I don't recall it being a CDR.

must checkout Ward, I found an undated minidisc recording of Jazz on 3 of Alex Ward with Derek Bailey which sounded pretty interesting .

Um, if they do then - uh - not very well... I did what any self respecting person does ...uses Google translate....

any suggestions for the more jazz oriented sessions ( as apposed to free improv) by Veryan Weston. I've listen to a few sessions recently where Weston impressed (John Stevens Freebop at Bracknell on Impetus)

Bud Shank Brasamba-Pacific reissue

The Goldmine Guide says that trident on the right is 1964-67, trident on the top is 1967-69, and purple label is 1969-72. thanks

Anyone know or care about the significance or otherwise of the Trident on blue labels being placed on the right versus top centre of the label ? And while I'm asking whats the significance of the purple label?

I've got a couple of LPs with Bialy Kruk Czarnego Krazka on the cover but no mention of the artists on the disc . I understand this translates as White Raven Black Disc The sleeves appear to be generic Muza sleeves. Anyone else seen this. The sleeves of the LPs are very low grade heavy paper and almost look like boots. Luckily the LPs themselves are perfect. They look like this.

Spirit The Family that plays together Edsel ( 1980s reissue) I've got a line on you :tup

Anyone know the Latin for 'Play that thing!' Or 'Yeah!' even. fabrefacta quod res

Tina was dead by the time this was released otherwise he would be in the picture, as per the original object of the thread

Rudolf Dasek Interlanding Supraphon with Andrew Cyrille. Pianist Karel Ruzicka sounds really good. Don't have him on anything else. V good session.

Per Henrik Wallin Trio - Caprice - 1979

A couple of 10 inchers tonight Miles Davis Blue N Boogie/Walkin- Esquire 20-062 Duke Jordan Trio Vogue LDE 099

Cedar Walton The Electric Boogaloo Song Prestige blue label- despite terrible name and poor cover design it's a decent album with Blue Mitchell and Clifford Jordan

Yes indeed! Was "Troppo" previously out in the impressed/re-pressed series? I remember mine having very lousy print and shabby info... Vocalion does better usually (not at home to check though. correct even with a magnifier the liners are illegible, luckily as Sidewinder pointed out the sound is fine on the Impressed/Repressed version. I played it through last night and found it more progressive than I remembered.

The HARRY BECKETT is excellent .

I thought this dreadfully sacharine when I first got it, but it has some merits and enjoyed playing it late last night . I think it's the synth that troubles me. Prefer Dark Warrior. Khan Jamal - Thinking of you- Storyville

Trevor Watts Moire Music Sextet Saalfelden Encore Cadillac , 1986, music much better the cover might suggest

I started with the Verves ( bacause that's all that was available at the time) and nearly lost interest in her. The Columbia sessions are the way to go. Avoid the late 80s CDs of this material as the sound is poor.

two interesting quotes about that record: "Damn, that's a real bebop rhythm section" - Roscoe Mitchell "Oh yeah, you got the real tapes" - Eli Thompson Lucky is cross eyed here. Great date, not with standing facial asymmetry.

No stupidity involved. I don't think there's a functioning website at the moment nor has there been for some time. I remember speaking with Hazel sometime ago and she was hopful that she'd found someone to rejuvenate it for her but that's obviously not come to fruition. Ogun's definitely a one-woman concern and I suspect there are other calls on Hazel's time. She's contactable via ogunrecords@googlemail.com and as stated above she's the most helpful of people. I second AH's recco of the Moholo/Wright disc and the latest Tippett Octet this list looks up to date http://www.efi.group.shef.ac.uk/labels/ogun/cogunc.html thanks , just what I was looking for....now where to start .....
