Tell Sid Sid Viscious Sid Snott

It is a really nice set. I'll be giving it a spin or 3 over this Yule break..

Very best wishes to all !

Yet more bl**dy dressmaking !

Francy Boland 'Fellini 712' (French MPS) Fats Sadi 'Ensadinado' (Saba, stereo)

Have a good one !

Really excellent time, thanks and no hitches. Thanks again for the pass ! I would have a hard time walking to Shinjuku without popping in every time to Disk Union..

Good to hear ! I'm still recovering from the 20k we covered in Tokyo !

Keno Duke/Jazz Contemporaries 'Reasons In Tonality' (Strata East) Followed by Lalo Schifrin 'The Dissection and Reconstruction of ... etc' (Australian World Record Club). Late 60s Aussie version of the Schifrin classic. Doesn't seem to feature on the internet for cover art !

Oliver Nelson's playing on soprano is very under-rated. Much of his best work on this instrument is on the Mosaic set.

Romania But there again, my excuse is that I have just returned from holiday. I was pushed over the edge in Vancouver..

Nice one !

The extra tracks are most definitely up to the standard of the original LP tracks. Essential !

Interesting - decimalisation came in around 1972 so one must suspect that this one was a deletion from the early to mid 70s. Wish I had a Tardis to snag such gems at this sort of price !

That's certainly a great one and in my top few Wheelers as well. Love the opening track and Vesala shines throughout. Started with a USA pressing and now own a Japanese pressing. May one day try a German pressing just for comparisons sake as it is a gem... The German pressing of that one sounds predictably nice !

Weren't those pressed somewhere in Lancashire? I have the feeling that it was something to do with that budget label Everest.

Belated Happy Birthday Ghost !

A hint at closer cultural ties that used to exist? Congrats anyway! Thanks - yep, one of the LPs still has the Chappell of London export stickers for Sydney on it !

John Eardley 'Hey There' Esquire 10" in not far off mint vinyl - 9 NZ dollars !! (£5) Kenny Graham/Don Rendell "Tenorama" on Nixa/Lansdowne series for 29 dollars, again in great shape for a nearly 60 year old UK LP. A nice haul of UK LPs located many thousands of miles from their origin !

So maybe the story is true then that the master tapes have been lost?

Another fan of Peter Clayton here. Charles Fox too - I have some tapes of his 'The Arranger In Jazz' series for Radio 3 somewhere. Always a great education listening to his shows. Alan Dell's big band show was always good value back in the day too...

The early Stan Tracey's?... there's plenty of them that have never seen the light of day on CD. The Big Brass 'Latin American Caper' would get my vote.
