I must admit - that 'Jazzwise' 2 star review that Roger mentioned has put me off. Maybe I need to sample this one.
Quite a bit of Bruce on double bass during the Cream/pre-Cream years. Mike Taylor 'Trio' comes to mind (where he doubles with Ron Rubin).
Congrats and good luck with the move, Clifford. My LP collection went over the Atlantic and back in a container ship so you shouldn't have too many problems. I ended up boxing them in substantial cardboard boxes and also utilising some old record cases that I had. For high value/rare items you might want to consider transferring them separately 'in person'. I think that's what I would do.
Sounds like you'll be near the Academy Records Williamsburg Annex with your move - and consequently able to spend an absolute fortune on rare and wonderful stuff before the rest of us punters get a sniff. Lucky you !
I have the horrible feeling that it's going to be another Germany/England semi and a penalty shootout.
Germany/Spain final looks odds-on favourite - I agree.
A rare copy of the 'Le Dejeuner Sur L'Herbe' came up for sale here in the UK earlier this week at about £200. Was snapped up pretty well immediately. Let's hope that Vocalion put it out on CD in this forthcoming new release batch (well - we can wish ). Still looks to be no word from them on this.
Empire?
Oh - you mean the Falklands?
Most definitely there's the greatest big band version of 'Naima' ever on this LP. Stunning !
Never thought I'd see Patsy Kensit on this board ! She was fit back then though..
If I remember right, this film co-incided with an absolute flood of French DMM Blue Notes, so that we all thought we'd gone to heaven.
