Guess it didn't take you long to get your hi-fi equipment set up and the LPs unpacked. Then again, some things are priorities.

[clifford_thornton]

Yep. I was waiting on a new cartridge for about two weeks, too.

Now:

Steve Lacy - Esthilacos - (Guilda da Musica)

[jazzbo]

Duke Ellington Orchestra: The Duke 1940 - Live from the Crystall Ballroom in Fargo, N.D. (Jazz Society)

Never heard the Storyville CD release, but this sounds very good to me.

The Storyville CD release sounds very good, from the same source discs and mastering was also by Jack Towers.

Frank Lowe - Doctor Too-Much - (Kharma)

[colinmce]

Now:

Steve Lacy - Esthilacos - (Guilda da Musica)

Damn! Last eBay copy went for around $350.

The Johnson Mountain Boys: Working Close (Rounder)

[clifford_thornton]

Now:

Steve Lacy - Esthilacos - (Guilda da Musica)

Damn! Last eBay copy went for around $350.

Really?!? I got mine years ago for around $50, which I thought was reasonable for something you never see. Pressing's not stellar, but it's an excellent date.

Aaron Bell 'After the Party's Over' (RCA, mono)

[mjazzg]

just arrived in the post. Straight on the deck. fantastic!

[jazzbo]

I've always loved this material from Duke (that I have on several cds) but man. . . the sound on these lps just astounds me. Why did I stay away from vinyl so long?

[paul secor]

Buena Vista Social Club (World Circuit/Nonesuch/Classic Records) - 2 LPs

Just noticed after all these years that Ry Cooder gets top billing on the cover. WTF is up with that? Here's a record with all kinds of gifted, original musicians and a mimic gets his name out front.
