    Tony Tuff's Wha we a go do Sly on drums (RIP). Amazing album that VP just reissued, digitizing it for the first time. Been a reggae fan for decades now and have never seen this one before. Better late than never.

    Leroy Smart's Musical Don: https://leroysmart.bandcamp.com/album/musical-don From '88. Recently remastered by Crucial Bunny. Steely & Clevie involved, as was Jackie Mittoo. Unexpected quality on this one. Definitely recommend if you dig reggae and don't mind/enjoy that 80s Jamaican sound.

    Thanks 🍻 Looks like a great price.

    Thanks guys. Makes me wish they could include those liners in their downloads then. Any recs for shopping their CDs online?

    Does Storyville include quality liners with their archive CDs? I've never seen them in US stores and only know about them via Bandcamp. The pics and descriptions don't seem to indicate anything.

    I had no idea this was even made. Wondering if it was even distributed in the US at all. Edit: Nvm. See it's the premier of the movie so it's brand new. Reading comprehension is a great thing that I should practice more of.

    I can't think of Jekyll & Hyde without thinking of this tune. It's burned into my brain at this point:

    So the ezz-thetics beats the Impulse! release? In what way would you say? I'm a little surprised that's the case.

    I'm hoping sites like Bandcamp are helping some of these labels with driving some revenue and getting exposure, especially since the American market for CDs is a fraction of what it once was. I really dig the Jazz in Britain label along with several others you mention. Without Bandcamp I'm not sure how I would have heard about some of them.

    I'd be willing to bet some of these tracks could be found here at archive's site: https://archive.org/search?query=subject%3A"V-Discs"

    Some great albums there, most of which are new to me. Thanks for the list/link.

    No doubt after reviewing their Discogs page. there's some really good stuff. I got there after listening again to Tony Coe's Axel: What Say We Play Today. Really enjoyed that one, esp Gordon Beck. So starting digging around and found that Merrill record. Fruitful search so far.

    Helen Merrill, Gordon Beck, Stephane Grappelli, & Steve Lacy "Music Makers" recorded in Paris, 1986. Issued on Owl Records, a label I know nothing about but one that's got some interesting looking titles.

    That's a great quote from Janek. Setting up unusual combos that he thought would go over well. Sounds like a mix tape session only with live performers.

    That's it
