is the vinyl reissue already out there?. Everywhere lists 4th September as far i can find....

[sidewinder]

Yes - it has been for sale on Bandcamp.

I had my suspicions on source as the John Thurlow book mentioned that the tapes were believed destroyed. This LP sounds to be from a master though - impeccable sound. Good news !

Cadillac have done a great job - flipback laminated sleeve  as well. to them !

Mine arrived too, yet to partake but heartened by your reports. "Free Mrs Beckett"

Within 2 days to my location. Two weeks - ridiculous !

They did mention by email today that the first press was about to run out and second press lined up. Suspect that is the reason.

Yes, i read the first pressing was sold out already somewhere.  Listening now, lovely job done. 

[sidewinder]

Strange that the master tapes turned up after that story in the book !

The Harry Beckett book by the way - like the Innovations In British Jazz tome by John Wickes - really could have used some serious editing as there are daft grammatical errors and some repetition even within sections. Still, it is gratifyingly full of detail and an obvious labour of love and for that it gets a big  from me. There are gigs in there that I had seen with Harry and completely forgotten about until reminded from the text. The Claude Deppa African Big Band in 1999, for example.

i can see why this one is so rare, it is very different, and in many ways the end of the real BN organ era.  Ronnie Fosters hella good, but hes more a "keyboard" player, its more a keyboard albums those, not "organ" albums......

Hopefully they bring ‘Drives’ out as a Tone Poet. A decent copy of this one has always eluded me and I missed the ‘Rare Groove’ version for some reason.

rare one -- have seen images before but never actually fingered a copy.

This was the original, mine is a later repress.

This cover is far nicer then later one. IMHO.

In the very early 70s, Down Beat offered that record as a bonus if you subscribed.

By the time I got my own, it was The Gap Sealer, so hey, still good.
