JohnS Posted October 9, 2012 Report Posted October 9, 2012 David Murray 'Flowers for Albert' (India Navigation) An all time favourite. When I heard this back when it first came out it completely knocked me out. I've been a Murray fan ever since. Quote
JohnS Posted October 9, 2012 Report Posted October 9, 2012 The NYAQ qualifies as one of the jazz super groups imo. My early Fontana jacket doesn't have the 'stereo' legend at bottom left. Quote
Daniel A Posted October 9, 2012 Report Posted October 9, 2012 John Dankworth 'The $1,000,000 Collection' (Stereo Fontana, US pressing). Once again. Quote

clifford_thornton Posted October 9, 2012 Report Posted October 9, 2012 Great record; that's the version I have, too. I'm pretty sure (not entirely, but pretty sure) that the Marte Roling cover is only on the Japanese pressing. Quote

colinmce Posted October 10, 2012 Report Posted October 10, 2012 Human Arts Ensemble - Under The Sun (Arista/Freedom) Did A/F ever circulate albums that weren't promos? Because I swear I've never seen one. All my Braxton Aristas are promos, too. Quote

clifford_thornton Posted October 10, 2012 Report Posted October 10, 2012 Human Arts Ensemble - Under The Sun (Arista/Freedom) Did A/F ever circulate albums that weren't promos? Because I swear I've never seen one. All my Braxton Aristas are promos, too. I recall their promos had a gold stamp on the cover and a massive cut corner. My Braxtons are all normally sold stock... I have one A/F title, the Frank Lowe, with a small cut-out deletion mark, but it's not a promo. Quote

The Magnificent Goldberg Posted October 13, 2012 Report Posted October 13, 2012 A couple of R&B EPs Shirley & Lee - Aladdin (Vogue UK) ('Let the good times roll' and 'I feel good' plus their B sides) Wynonie 'Mr Blues' Harris - Battle of the blues - King (Blue Beat) Hearing 'I feel good' by the Young Tuxedo band on the Mosaic Atlantic New Orleans jazz sessions made me turn up the Shirley & Lee version. And thinking about the old Blue Beat ska records I remembered this EP which was a surprising release for the label (though the company's West Indian customers would have lapped it up, I dare say).
