alankin Posted January 20, 2015 Report Posted January 20, 2015 At any rate, this cover looks VERY much like a later pressing to me, particularly that centered STEREO typeface at the top looks looks VERY 60s-ish (or even 70s).. The original LP number was UJLP 1201 and the cover shown here ... http://www.popsike.com/COLEMAN-HAWKINS-ACCENT-ON-TENOR-SAX-URANIA-UJLP-1201-OG/140651071950.html ... looks much more like a 50s cover. Anyway, thanks for the reminder. Might as well spin the LP later myelf. What throws me off is that this newer "STEREO" pressing shows all the signs of being old itself. It has a deep groove. So if it's a later pressing, I'm thinking it's still late 50s or very early 60s. Could the LP be from old stock and placed in a newer cover? Quote
jeffcrom Posted January 20, 2015 Report Posted January 20, 2015 Serge Chaloff - Boston Blow-Up! (Capitol). A gorgeous copy, which I found at the late, lamented Magic Bus on Conti Street in New Orleans. This "Body and Soul" ranks with the best-ever versions of the tune. Quote

So if it's a later pressing, I'm thinking it's still late 50s or very early 60s.I think that the time period for DG pressings is variable, depending on the plant doing the pressings. I have a 1964 Earl Grant LP (UK Brunswick) which is DG. And my 1966 copy (UK again) of Jackie Ivory's 'Soul discovery' is also DG.Though maybe the UK's plants weren't 'upgraded' until later.MG Quote
Homefromtheforest Posted January 20, 2015 Report Posted January 20, 2015 Tuohi Klang "penselmann hits" (UFO, Finland). Killer 1972 album with Edward Vesala on drums. Splendid choice! The "Nunnu" album on Blue Master Special, which features the same musicians (plus Juhani Aaltonen, Heikki Sarmanto, etc.), is another great one from the same period. You know I think that's the one album from this vintage I still need with Vesala! Have pretty much everything else(nana, I'm here, hot lotta, ode to Marilyn, etc) but one day I'll have to get "nunnu" as well. I have heard it though and it is a nice enough album... Quote
B. Clugston Posted January 20, 2015 Report Posted January 20, 2015 Captain Beyond, Live in Texas (Purple Pyramid). Great music, but bootleg sound and, like many standard North American vinyl releases these days, heavily warped. Anthony Braxton, Saxophone Improvisations, Series F (America). Quote

Clunky Posted January 20, 2015 Report Posted January 20, 2015 Ray Warleigh--------Reverie-------( Vinyl )UK pressing Really very nice session with a tougher than ECM type feel. It's not exactly a swinger nor is quite a fjordic as most ECMs. John Taylor is mercurial as ever.I've a small handful of Vinyl Record releases this one is a UK pressing the others I think are German. Fine release all round. Don't think it's been reissued. Quote

Kevin Bresnahan Posted January 21, 2015 Report Posted January 21, 2015 Wayne Shorter - Adam's Apple (Blue Note). A dark blue label Van Gelder UA pressing that looks worse than it plays, which doesn't happen often with these pressings. Quote

Yeah, it was totally news to me when I came across it in a bin for the easy- to- deal- with price of $10. Prices seem all over for this one. 298 BRIDGE ST - Ken Werner Sextett - Werner (p), Joe Lovano (ts, fl, musette), Billy Drewes (ts, ss, as), Bill de Arrango (g), Ratso Harris (b), Tom Rainey (d). 1981. AMF Records. An interesting obscurity. Might make a good BFT. I'd like to hear this one. It looks interesting. There's a song on Side 2, "Ballad for Paul Motion [sic], which gives you an idea of the aesthetic direction of the album. It would not be out of place if released today, and quite surprising for a 1981 release. Quote
A Lark Ascending Posted January 21, 2015 Report Posted January 21, 2015 Babbington/Austin/Gallivan - Home From Home [Ogun] Don't think I've ever heard of that one! Quote
Kevin Bresnahan Posted January 21, 2015 Report Posted January 21, 2015 Doug Sertl - Uptown Express (Palo Alto Jazz). I saw Nick Brignola's name on the cover and I grabbed it. Unfortunately, the recording is wonky in places. Some of the soloists sound off mic, it has the dreaded bumblebee bass and the piano sounds like an upright model in the corner of a bar. The music is rather tame. Surprisingly with this killer band, Sertl holds his own fairly well, putting some of the better solos. Quote
Leeway Posted January 21, 2015 Report Posted January 21, 2015 LIVE IN LONDON - Sal Nistico/Stan Tracey Quintet: Tracey (p), Art Themen (ts, ss), Roy Babbington (b), Clark Tracey (d). Steam LP. A nice, somewhat disregarded date; the two tenors play off each other well. Isn't Babbington a perfect onomatopoeia name for a bassist? Quote

clifford_thornton Posted January 21, 2015 Report Posted January 21, 2015 (edited) David Panton/Nick Stephens/John Stevens - Trio - (Panton EP) curious privately-released alto, bass, drums trio from this very obscure UK saxophonist. Pretty grimy pressing but a nice artifact with some heavy playing. Edited January 21, 2015 by clifford_thornton Quote
