What vinyl are you spinning right now??

[clifford_thornton]

The Melvin Jackson is a really funky album on with a lot of double bass on the experimental side. This album should have a renaissance.

I like that record quite a bit. Even an odd AACM connection.

A couple of albums that I have just picked up:

Pacific Eardrum 'Beyond Panic' (Charisma) - Dave MacRae/Joy Yates/ Billy Kristian etc. Nice Nucleus-ish fusion from 1978

Lucky Thompson 'Dancing Sunbeam' (Impulse 2LP)

[JohnS]

Inspired by John L's track of the week

Johnny Griffin Sextet, Riverside. Ace UK issue.

[JohnS]

Still with Johnny Griffin; Change of Pace. Riverside (French Carrere issue). Decent sound and pressing but back cover reproduction very sooty.

[jeffcrom]

Lonnie Smith - Think (70s pressing BN). I've been listening to the Dr. quite a bit lately. He's just crazy enough to be interesting.

[kh1958]

Jam Session No. 1 (Charlie Parker, Johnny Hodges, Benny Carter, Ben Webster, etc.)--Mercury (light blue trumpet label)--Very vivid sound from this 1953 record, a happy find this week.
