That's one expensive LP for such a little known leader. Is it because he just died?

Yes, in memory of him ...

No, I was asking if it was so expensive but he just died? In my experience, Fresh Sound LPs generally don't fetch big money. This one appears to be an exception.

Implausible, Pedro Iturralde died today! I don't know the current price, for example this is an ongoing offer https://www.vinyltom.com/product_info.php/iturralde-pedro-quartet-featuring-hampton-hawes-p-11784. I've owned the LP for a long time. 

PS. These price differences are strange though https://www.discogs.com/sell/list?sort=listed%2Cdesc&limit=25&master_id=794925&ev=mb

The Greatest Jazz Concert in the World (Pablo)

[mjazzg]

Smoke - s/t [Session]

This went on my 'to buy' list a couple of months ago after a discussion on this board made me aware of it, can't remember where now

It's now on my 'bought it' list and I'm very pleased that I have. Really interesting session

[Dan Gould]

I don't know if I've ever seen a reference to this one but I can't imagine no one else has it ...

[Dan Gould]

This is an interesting one ... bought for Teddy Edwards (of whom there isn't really enough)

Missed this one the first time round. A few annoying crackles, which seems to be a common complaint with this pressing/title. 

Huge kudos to Resonance - they are shipping out a replacement disk 1 to me. Excellent customer support.

Good ....

[clifford_thornton]

Yeah, had that on deck recently as well, same pressing. Very nice album indeed. Altissimo, the follow-up of sorts, is quite good as well.

Yes , those were the days. SABA later MPS produced a lot of Beautiful stuff then. And Joachim Ernst Berendt was a key figure for me when I was a Young Boy. His "Jazzbook" was the ideal guide for me as a jazz starter to dig into the history of jazz, the musicians, the styles, the bands, the records, everything. Later he would write books that seemed more strange to me, to much exotic Philosophy, but the "Jazzbook" still is an important item in my jazz library….

[sidewinder]

The Berendt ‘Jazzbook’ in the English paperback was one of the first books on jazz  I ever read. Still have it.

Unlike Rex Harris’s abomination, it actually covered modern jazz very well.

Well yes had  about the same experience like you both and  still have my first "The Jazzbook" and a later edition as guideline.  He was voted for some time as CEO of the Berlin Jazz fFestival and introduced many (at that time far out and unknown artists). Produces also some albums whuch are really good.  I do agree about his later work. Jazz wasnt enough anymore after he was voted as "professor" and did lectures. I have corresponded with him about leaving the road of jazz. At that time he way allready away in these strange philosopies and had left the radio station SWF  after taking with him the complete collection he had buildt with the stations money. But somehow the judges gave him right.

Now we should say De mortuis nihil nisi bene

Yes the original and the new enlarged edition - still in use here and then.

These were the times (no Internet at all) but only snail mail. We did survive it.

and how about this
