The rendell/Carr lps actually show up for sale on eBay fairly often, but they still go for big bucks nonetheless.

Not sure of the original quantities but it must have been only in the hundreds, certainly no more than the low thousands. 'Shades' in particular is very scarce in good condition. I remember reading about the Michael Garrick Argos that his biggest seller ('The Heart Is A Lotus') was only about 1000 copies.

Sold my copy of this to a Japanese collector when Vocalion reissued it on CD. It was the only time I ever got "big bucks" for any of my vinyl sales and even then it was only about £120.

...if I knew then what I know now.......

edit to apologise for intriguing image. Decided not to delete so that following posts make sense

edit 2: to wonder why initial odd image disappeared after first edit - I just give up!

KH Stockhausen or ECM?

Neither I'm afraid. Sorry about that, the image was there when I pressed 'post', honest. Something very odd is happening today because as I type this it's in a different font and small without the usual 'font' and 'size' adjust options available.

Anyway the image was of the cover for Brotzmann/Hamid Drake - Solid and Spirit [Nero's Neptune]

edit to add: having posted I'm relieved to see the odd font issue hasn't translated to the post - too weird

Glad to see you got a copy. A few outlets in the UK seem to list it. Its a fine album. I'm not sure of there really is afrenzy over getting hold of this one or whether Oto just sold what they had quickly. Recommended whatever

Yes, I'm enjoying it. I think Oto quite successfully created the "frenzy" - at least in my head

DUKE PEARSON- it could only happen with you

1st of all this lp is audiophile quality, this lp sound quality is on par with Victor Feltman- Secret of the Andes. rvg recorded, but non rvg stamped. rvg, i think, made this sound like one of his CTI records, it sounds incredible, very clear sound, its not all compressed and maxed out like some art blakey bluenote, its almost light a straight pass of the master tape.

has this ever been issued on cd, wasnt there a duke pearson box set at some point? well i cant believe it never got an early stand alone issue, its a great, modern work, it really one of pearsons most cutting edge projects. so blessed i finally found a copy of this, but i never expected the SQ to be so good

Chewy - It is included in the Duke 'Mosaic Select'. Don't think it appeared in the 'rare groove' series. I have a Japanese King pressing of this one and it sounds predictably excellent.
