[LF: Digger's Harvest by Schlippenbach & Oxley]

Please PM me with an offer to sell, thanks.

[Who remembers the stores where they would go to buy stereo equipment?]

Sound Mill in Mt. Kisco….  Sold to nearly all tastes and price points.  Loved the well-matched starter systems offered there.  Owner Martin was usually pleased to play our favorite LPs on McIntosh gear for our kicks. Old days. 

[Warne Marsh]

Bought both VV volumes from cadnor yesterday for $35 incl tax and mailing. It’s been quite challenging for me since mid 2020 to explore Warne Marsh’s recordings, when very little is on major labels or in what’s left of used-goods circulation. Yes, thank god/CN for All Music, a massive treat.  Has Warne Out ever been legitimately issued digitally?  It’s posted on youtube….  Why not some beat-the-boots for sale/stream on bandcamp by the artist estate?  

[LF: Warne Marsh - Warne Out (CD, +5)]

bump up

[Jones/Lewis Mosaic]

Funny!  I saw it.  Thought about it for a day.  Figured out a few things to sell.  Then I went to get it. But, no... no...

[LF: Warne Marsh - Warne Out (CD, +5)]

re-bump:  I know it's as rare as can be.    Anybody see it? 

[LF: Mosaic Larry Young box set]

I "bid" $95 for this great charitable cause and the excellent 6 CD gift premium.  And, I'll tuck in some nice CDs in with my check.  Does Rooster hear $100?     

[What is your favourite Mosaic for listening pleasure]

What Clunky said and Soul-pope echoed.  OMG yes Herbie Nichols.  Cheers! 

[Av Receiver Replacement]

You might try calling or connecting via online form with Echo Hi Fi in Portland.... tell them what you are looking for. They post used gear everyday, and modestly priced AV receivers from Arcam, Rotel, and Marantz are seen regularly.  Definitely reputable for buying used vintage amps and receivers.  

[LF: Borrow arrangement for Harry Miller Ogun set]

Would a member be willing to allow me to borrow their set, for a cash deposit?  I’m clean and tidy, and would barely breath on it.  It’s not out there to buy.  

Thanks. 

Dan

 

[LF: Harry Miller on Ogun]

I'm searching for the Miller Ogun set.  I know it may take years.  Has anybody had success buying mere CDRs from Hazel?   

[Need UK help buying CD online...]

If anybody is game to buy and ship a few CDs for me from amazon.co.uk marketplace seller, I'll pay for such services. (I'm in NY.) 

Thanks!  

Dan

[Bookcase speakers?]

I wholeheartedly recommend the B&W 601 series. Value miracle for a few hundred bucks. 

[LF- Hampton Hawes All Night Sessions]

I sent a PM with the link. 

[LF- Hampton Hawes All Night Sessions]

$70 on Amazon.  Great set. 

[The Grateful Dead Dark Star]

Morning Dew... **THE song that perhaps best enabled young and old Deadheads to bear similar witness to the band's best**  ....good to the last drop.       

[Bandcamp - thumbs up for user experience]

I have had nothing but EASY, positive experiences buying lossless music on this site -- Nels Cline, Brotzmann (Outspan!!!). More obscure and OOP FMP... just a few pay periods away! .

They have a  nice little mobile app for playing purchased music (and trying free tracks), No problem enjoying favorite long tail out stuff on an out app.

And I have no idea if Bandcamp represents better economics for artists, but let's hope so.

Saw this on their landing page:

Fans have paid artists $139 million using Bandcamp, and $4 million in the last 30 days alone.

A $50MM annual gross ain't peanuts. Hopefully that monthly figure gains steam.

 

[What to Reissue Number Two]

Here's a long shot: The Don Ellis Orchestra. CDs eventually covered just about all his LP releases, but I'm curious if there's more out there somewhere and in glorious hi-fi. 

[FS: Valve Audio Predator hybrid amp]

Beautiful, like new.  200w/ch, no remote*  $1500.

* it's in South Africa, long story...

[Stanley Cowell recs]

I enjoy the Piano Jazz edition with Stanley Cowell.  And SC's ECM release from way back, I think that's one of the three MP's i've ever paid for.

[FS/FT: Avant garde sax players: Butcher, Lazro, McPhee, etc.]

London Air Lift for me, please.  Thanks

[Best work by Ornette Coleman sidemen]

Sunshine of My Soul???

[Sam Rivers: Streams]

I have Sizzle on CDR from the go-go days of "free" downloads. It's good, I listen to it a few times a year.  Streams, while good, isn't suitable as $25 lust-for vinyl. I would suggest spending on blank CDRs that your "friends" could use to "lend" you "play" copies of some of the very good but rare and OOP sessions that Rivers released in the 20 years before his death e.g. - Configuration, Winter Garden, and Eight Day Journal. 

[Where the hell is Phil Schaap?]

For me Schaap was an essential part of my portal into the music. 1990-93 as a reverse commuter, so much fucking driving and heavy traffic to mid-Jersey... WHAT??? would I have done without Phil and Sid Gribetz?? Thank you dudes!

And so much beyond Bird and Duke and bop and swing... the birthdays... Mingus, Vaughn, et. al. an amazing projection of interest, love and care.

[Ornette Coleman, New Vocabulary]

Stollman: "I made all these calls, all these visits, set up things with record companies for you".... A few hours of "work", one might guess. A few hundred bucks worth? Loss leader for the privilege of a business relationship with a genius?
