sidewinder Posted September 7, 2014 Report Posted September 7, 2014 £5 each in Fopp ! No Fopps even in English Wales. Better look in Spillers next trip to Cardiff. I looked on Amazon UK and was surprised at how expensive it all is. MG Nearest would be the one in Bristol for you, MG. They are located up by the University. Quote
kh1958 Posted September 7, 2014 Report Posted September 7, 2014 Coleman Hawkins Quartet, No Strings (Prestige stereo, Moodsville). Great recorded sound and stunning playing from the Hawk and her group. Frank Wess, Southern Comfort (Prestige, Stereo, silver and black label, Status sticker on cover), fine date arranged by Oliver Nelson (who also performs in the ensemble but does not solo). Quote
clifford_thornton Posted September 8, 2014 Report Posted September 8, 2014 The Can - Monster Movie (Liberty GER stereo) pretty sure the stampers are identical to the Music Factory version. Sounds incredible. Quote
Homefromtheforest Posted September 8, 2014 Report Posted September 8, 2014 Really? I have a pristine German Liberty pressing with the "SRS..." stamp on side one but just the Liberty matrix number on side two. Is yours different? It is a classic record. I have original German issues of "Tago Mago", "Future Days", "Soundtracks" and "Ege Bamyasi" as well. My "Soon over Babaluma" is a UK UA pressing...all classic stuff! Quote
clifford_thornton Posted September 8, 2014 Report Posted September 8, 2014 SRS on both sides for me. Sounds wonderful. I need to get originals of Tago Mago and Ege - sold Future Days (German UA) many years ago, found it dull then but my opinion might be different now. Quote
Homefromtheforest Posted September 8, 2014 Report Posted September 8, 2014 Huh...mine must be a later 70s issue then! Ugh now the collector bug in me is itching to get a 1st press now haha...such unhinged nerdiness.. Quote
clifford_thornton Posted September 8, 2014 Report Posted September 8, 2014 it sounds unbelievable, at least compared to the crappy Spoon version I was used to. It wasn't expensive. Quote

mikeweil Posted September 10, 2014 Report Posted September 10, 2014 This LP arrived today - it doesn't disappoint. Sympathetic backing from Buddy Tate (even pulling out his clarinet), Hank Jones, Milt Hinton,and Oliver Jackson; Hibbler's voice had aged a bit by then, but his very personal phrasing was still intact. Must have been a great day for him. He's the only singer whom I forgive his sometimes extremely wide vibrato. Quote
A Lark Ascending Posted September 10, 2014 Report Posted September 10, 2014 (edited) Louis Moholo Octet - Spirits Rejoice! [Ogun] today's arrival, rejoice indeed! You could have had my vinyl! I only use the CD now. One of my favourite Oguns (though be aware they have the titles on side 2 reversed on the LP cover - not that that will affect listening pleasure).

niels Posted September 10, 2014 Report Posted September 10, 2014 Finaly got myself a very nice looking cocktail chair (I'm a sucker for this kind of furniture) last weekend, so I can sit comfortably near my turntable and listen to records with a headphone on in the evenings. Wasn't able to do that for way too long! Got the following stacked up for this evening: Dave Holland - Conference of The Birds (ECM) Grachen Moncur III - Some Other Stuff (Blue Note) Chick Corea - Now He Sings, Now He Sobs (Solid State) Paul Bley - Open to Love ( ECM) Quote

Homefromtheforest Posted September 11, 2014 Report Posted September 11, 2014 Jackie McLean "destination out" (Blue Note, NY USA mono). Interesting that this does not have a DG on one side like my 2 stereo copies. Sounds a bit punchier in mono but I think I prefer the stereo presentation actually...or maybe it's just my ears have gotten so used to the stereo issue! Alas still not a dead silent copy...just enough soft crackles in spots to annoy me a bit Quote
Homefromtheforest Posted September 11, 2014 Report Posted September 11, 2014 Black Unity Trio "al-fatihah" (salaam, USA). Finally got a copy of this killer album...not the best copy but it will suffice considering I got this for a small fraction of the price top copies have gone for in the past few years. Quote
Homefromtheforest Posted September 11, 2014 Report Posted September 11, 2014 Neu! "s/t" (Brain, green metronome) a stone mint copy of their amazing debut...have not played this in at least 15 years...if I can stay awake I might pull out "2" and "75" off the shelves too! Quote

Homefromtheforest Posted September 11, 2014 Report Posted September 11, 2014 King Crimson " court of the crimson king" (Canada , Atlantic 1st press)... First Canadian pressing and actually quite great sounding! Quote
clifford_thornton Posted September 11, 2014 Report Posted September 11, 2014 Black Unity Trio "al-fatihah" (salaam, USA). Finally got a copy of this killer album...not the best copy but it will suffice considering I got this for a small fraction of the price top copies have gone for in the past few years. Sick. I've been trying to get one for many years, though often the copies that come up are hammered... excellent session though. Quote
Homefromtheforest Posted September 11, 2014 Report Posted September 11, 2014 Yeah it's a killer album for sure. My copy is a bit crackly and the cover is a pretty worn too but for less then $200 I'll take it. Really too bad that proposed reissue years ago never happened... Quote
clifford_thornton Posted September 11, 2014 Report Posted September 11, 2014 yeah, that is a "good deal." Bid much more and lost several times. Quote
Chuck Nessa Posted September 11, 2014 Report Posted September 11, 2014 While in my last year of high school I took a chance on a record because of the cover shot of a "crazed musician". It was a clear/yellow vinyl pressing in stereo with the blue label. That record went the way of much vinyl to finance cds on my label. When my father died a few years ago I found a copy I had given him. Sadly, only black vinyl but it still sounds great. Quote
