Jazz Crusaders 'Steppin' Out' (Toshiba Pacific Jazz)

It certainly is ! Originally issued on vinyl by Deram (and quite scarce), Dutton Vocalion have issued it on CD with slightly revised cover work (requested by Mike) and with bonus tracks - 45rpm 'Magic Garden' and 45rpm alternate take of 'Original Peter'. I spin this one regularly and it is an all-time favourite ! Wondering why this is posted in the 'Discographies' forum though?

You guys still have milkmen?

Blowing a gale my way through last night. Looks ominous..

Just burning in a new cartridge- Jazz Crusaders 'The Freedom Sound' (King Pacific Jazz) Gerald Wilson Orchestra 'On Stage' (Pacific Jazz blue label)

A misterious finding at Stamford of unlimited spare copies of OOP Mosaics just for me, starting with the Stuff Smith set !

Happy Birthday to The Rooster !

LA4 'Pavane Pour Une Infante Defunte' (East Wind direct cut)

Remember seeing Williams on UK TV back in the mid-70s as part of a BBC TV broadcast of Clark Terry's Big Bad Band. Still have the audio of that on cassette, somewhere.

The freeview HD satellite receivers to use on Astra are coming down a bit in price, now below the £100 level. Good for the BBC HD 'demo' and no subscriptions to Rupey Boy. Maybe now is the time to go for one?

You bet! And will it be completed in time? Ho ho! And let's all have a bet what the cost will eventually come to. My guess: £29 bn MG Including or excluding the VAT?

This man has the perfect lifestyle !

And probably not entirely unrelated, the BBC announces: "Blair exit timetable to be agreed Two MPs have so far declared their intention to run for Mr Blair's job Labour's ruling National Executive Committee is expected to agree a timetable next week for the leadership election to replace Tony Blair. The BBC understands Labour officials have settled on a seven-week campaign for both the leader and deputy leader to run simultaneously. It would be followed by the "coronation" of the new leader and deputy leader at a special conference." Bring 'em on ! :rsmile:

"Prime Minister Tony Blair, speaking before the figures were announced, defended the government's planning." There was Planning?

With Tessa Jowell's hand controlling the tiller, you can be sure it will come in both on time and 'budget'. (Insert appropriate "New" Labour spin/apparatchnik-speech here - dust off tested old material from 'The Dome' courtesy P. Mandellson)

Jimmy Smith 'At Club Baby Grand, Wilmington, Delaware' (BN 47W63rd DG mono)

Just checked my Gabor Szabo 'More Sorcery' and that is red/black - I assume it was the same also for 'Sorcery' and the others.

Cool ! Now spinning: The Jazz & Classical Music Society Presents - 'Music For Brass' (Columbia 6-eye DG mono). With Gunther Schuller, John Lewis, Jimmy Giuffre, JJ Johnson and Miles Davis.

Pharoah Sanders 'Tauhid' (Impulse white label promo MONO)

That would be the original UK Polydor issue by Alan Bates !

Just checked it Porcy - your WLP Theory stands up, it is in mono. Even though the gatefold sleeve is marked stereo ! Sounds great by the way.

Happy Birthday !!

I've got a Pharoah Sanders 'Tauhid' WLP that seems to be in stereo.

Please PM if someone buy it. I have a spare near mint copy on my shelves, deep groove, RVG, 'ear'...oh wait it's on cds... Same here !
