Heh. It's a strong one. I'm a bit of a Dulfer fanatic, though admittedly his more recent work with DJs and electronics I am less curious about...

Happy belated!

Actually, I didn't come up with it, though I've quoted Cuscuna, Rooster and others in using it.

Hans Dulfer, Roswell Rudd, Arjen Gorter, Martin van Duynhoven - Maine - (BVHaast)

I like the cover. It's a painting by Moqui and entirely appropriate!

Is that Amy Winehouse?! Yikes. And I'd thought she was a fox...

You remember that the Mobley auction was for a fucking Classic Records reissue, right? Total scum selling it as an orig, and total fools taking it "there."

I'm not normally a fashion plate, but this shit is actually killin'. The Angela Davis tee is also very nice!

I bought mine for maybe $6 and wouldn't spend more than $15 - then it had better be NM.

That one I remember... The Herbie Hancock is not with the original jacket!

Ugh, what a cunt.

Academy puts everything - or nearly everything - decent, and some not that decent, up on eBay. They didn't used to be that way. I would have SHIT myself on a $60 private-press edition of Cosmic Music.

Um, iPod and Lombardo translations work for me. Kansas is a great, and very eccentric, state.

That's what you should be doing. Or invest in some other kind of book (a good novel, perhaps) and post questions here.

And if it were all the Homestead, Blast First! and New Alliance vinyl I could ever want, you bet I'll start walking there now!

Ronnie Scott & The Band - Live at Ronnie Scott's - (CBS Realm orig mono)

That dude should've got the smackdown for such behavior (on all counts), unless this is deemed common practice in Zweitausedeins.

Coltrane - Ascension, edition I - (Impulse orange/black mono) Roommate isn't home, I'm off work, and the volume is at about twelve-o'clock.

I'm not surprised (especially these days) and it's definitely a fair cost-to-benefit ratio. Wish I'd known more about Cecil in 1989, but I was twelve.

PM sent.

I've always been fond of the Black Druid thing... That LP is the shizznit.

13th Floor Elevators - Easter Everywhere - (Get Back 180g reissue) Goddamn... as always!

This is not often seen, and something I've long lusted after, but... Cecil Taylor FMP Box

Thanks for the read, Clem. Easter Everywhere is a favorite. I saw him perform a Kinky Freidman function, and was unimpressed - but that's coming from someone who has spent little time with his solo career. I run into Sumner every once in a while - last time at the post office - nice guy, and apparently he has custody of Roky, if I am not mistaken. Oh, and a friend of mine from wayback had Roky as his supposed godfather; his dad and Roky were close back in California. Weird scene.
