Anne Briggs – Anne Briggs Such a beautiful album that I haven't listened to in an age, since selling my CDs.

Interestingly, at the market today someone was selling four boxes of brand new still sealed Strata East reissues for 15 quid a pop. I asked what the reason was and he said they were overstocks, and suggested that they weren't really selling so much any more.

Paul Desmond – Easy Living On my tod today in the office and back in the mood for jazz for the first time in a couple of weeks.

Dave Holland Quintet – Seeds Of Time

Charlie Rouse / Paul Quinichette – The Chase Is On It has been too long since I listened to this one.

Count Basie - At Newport Why are they discontinuing? I had assumed that these were amongst their bigger sellers. Has the market dropped out of spiritual jazz? Or is this just a feature of having sold the items through to maturity?

Carcass – Necroticism - Descanting The Insalubrious

Cecil Taylor - Silent Tongues

Esteban Jordan - The Many Sounds Of Steve Jordan

Blind James Campbell – Blind James Campbell And His Nashville Street Band All killer

Lester Bowie - The Great Pretender

David Murray Octet - Ming

Gentle Giant - The Power and the Glory Still one of the more palatable prog bands.

Les Rallizes Denudés – Heavier Than A Death In The Family

Comus

Dave & Toni Arthur – Hearken To The Witches Rune

Randall Stephens – The Music I Love Is Gospel More a gritty instrumental funk record than a gospel one, although there's a bit of the latter on the vocal tracks.

Lee Konitz - Meets Warne Marsh Again / Warne Marsh - Meets Lee Konitz Again Now one that definitely isn't haunted, that I discovered thanks to this forum.

Fred Neil - Bleecker and MacDougall I bought this one early-ish in my vinyl buying career when I was not quite making informed decisions yet (£24.99 for a buggered Fred Neil record in c.2007?!). I play it with trepidation because it has been the record that I have played both times my former hi fi set up stopped working. I suspect it is haunted. Anyway, I randomly read something about Coconut Grove yesterday so this had to be played today.

Jerry Lee Lewis – Another Place Another Time

It does tend to have a good assortment. Ray's also used to have good stuff, after it had moved into Foyles. But I haven't seen it's like since.

John Hartford – Mark Twang Keeping the theme going.

One thing that this thread really brings home is how great the art department of practically every salsa record label was.

Does anyone know a record shop in London that specialises in folk / blues / roots / country of vinyl record? Or at least has a good selection. I'm coming up with a complete blank.

Francois Tusques - Free Jazz
