  2. So coming out of the closet on this - next week my girl and I are heading up to NYC to look for an apartment in the BK. We've got a few areas tentatively mapped out, and it'd be great to see some of you in the prelim stages. Also, any leads on Crown Heights/Kensington/affordable GP digs are most welcome. We are looking to be driving the u-haul out at the beginning of August.

  3. Wouldn't mind having those LPs either. I have "Invitation" but that's a somewhat different bag.
  4. Yeah, it's going to be "redonks" as the kids say, but we're looking forward to it. Lon, we should get a beer before I split!
  5. Thanks Rod! Yeah, sure Pete, that'd be great. We'll be in town next week to settle on an apt. Looking in Crown Heights and Kensington for sure, maybe parts of Greenpoint if there's still anything affordable there. I'm a little leery of Bed-Stuy and Bushwick though I suppose like anywhere else, there are good blocks and bad ones.
  6. Haha, it'll be interesting for sure. Thanks guys. So spine up, you say? For stacking purposes I presume? Also, I've amassed a bunch of UHaul boxes. Container store boxes are preferable?
  7. Hey all, So in August I'm moving from Austin to Brooklyn. It's been a while since I've moved a record collection, and the last time I had to was not in summer heat. I'm a little leery of boxing 'em up and putting them in a U-Haul truck that's not temp-controlled, but I've been told not to worry, that if they're packed tight enough, no heat damage will occur over the few days' drive. FWIW, it's about 3000 LPs, which is what I'd call a medium sized collection but too big to fit in an air-conditioned panel van. Thoughts on how to do this safely and securely? Thanks.
  8. Cheap ECM vinyl bonanza at End of an Ear yesterday, all minty. I left some for a few of the fellow hounds, however.

  9. Nice one! Now: Haazz & Co. (aka Kees Hazevoet) - Unlawful Noise - (KGB)
  10. Cecil - Nefertite - (Fontana Holland)
  11. Ayler & Co. - The Hilversum Session - (Osmosis)
  12. There was/is a seller on eBay going under the name "jazzanese" which I thought was hilarious.
  13. More about this album here, complete with audio samples : Giles Farnaby's Dream Band The track 'Newcastle Brown' was apparently issued as a single. I really like this - thanks Bev Yeah, it's really good. I'd sort of let my fascination with Brit-folk languish for a while. Time to start digging those LPs out again. I'm sure the original Argo pressing of this is pretty expensive.
  14. Wow, congrats!!!
  15. Huh. Never seen cassingles of jazz or improvised music. Growing up, my younger sister had a bunch of them - pop hits of the day - and almost every one was gawd awful.
  16. Yeah, sure, a little boxy but a fine, fine session.
  17. It's part of a series of Mercury Japan CDs but I don't know if that means anything.
  18. Here is a link to directly send aid to Carter & /or his family.
  19. Really good record.
  20. Jeez Allen, I can't wait to hear the fruits of this.
  21. Seems like Alan Wilkinson is trying to blow out my speakers - sweet jaysus.

  22. Spitball was Joe Diorio's label.
  23. I guess I didn't realize that the Spitball man himself played with Horace.
