Music Matters has a 33 rpm version too: https://www.musicmattersjazz.com/Andrew-Hill-Point-of-Departure-Blue-Note-33-rpm-p/33bst-4167.htm

It sounds very good to my ears and it's cheaper than the 45 rpm version, even on the used market.

and you only have to get up from your seat once. Less exercise though

I wish they reissued as 33rpm, though 45rpm is better sounding I am definitely a conservative about records.

Still not in my collection, but not for long.

bought a mono copy for fairly cheap years ago; little groove wear on the end of side two (last cut) but most of the record is unharmed. Fine date though I guess my fascination with Hill heads in other directions.

[Referentzhunter]

Mono, nice.

Ok, i am not that far in my knowledge concerning his releases. This would be my first record of him.

Imagine, Dave Liebman was one of the first musicians I heard in the 70. Since then he fascinates me. This record has a special meaning for me. Dave signed it for me. Wonderful tunes Goli Dance, Loft Dance, and a really fantastic version of Coltrane´s "Your Lady". .......

And topnotch musicians, almost an allstar band of the 70´s

Yes.  And Eugene Gregan's cover art is brilliant as well.

And I got mine signed by Dave Liebman ! Long time ago, the occasion was when I heard his band with Terumaso Hino, John Scofield, Ron McLure and Adam Nussbaum and imagine: JOHN SCOFIELD led me to Dave so I could meet him.

More from the box (mono securely ‘off’ ).

Spent a fair part of the afternoon putting this set under the VPI - to good effect.

Really? I don't appreciate the stereo separation of Atlantic too much.

Doesn’t bug me too much - probably because I am so used to hearing stereo Atlantic and immune to it. Having said that, by far the best ‘Giant Steps’ I have heard is the mono UK first release on the London label.

David Friedman & David Samuels - Double Image (Enja)
Excellent music. ... Top-shelf sound quality too -- like many Enja LPs from the late-70s and early-80s.

I have that one too. Great date. One of our U.K. members (mjazzg perhaps?) also has a copy. With c-t's, probably the only four copies to be found on the Organissimo forums.

I see that that whole album, "Jazz Bohemia Revisited," is on YouTube.
