I think that top one is one of the only Birds I don't have.  How is it?

It depends on your geek factor, but I find it fascinating.

Now moving up a decade or two.

But you've already heard it. I've got something to look forward to.

Honestly, I loved them both and couldn't pick. Volume 2 has a lot of New Orleans music in it, just recorded in Chicago. There's also a volume 3, Sounds of Harlem, which I don't have.

Nice, I got that earlier this year. Some interesting stuff on India Navigation.

On further thought, I would give the edge to Volume 1 because it devotes an entire side to Sam Morgan's Jazz Band.

Paul Bley with Gary Peacock, ECM 1003, 1970, German release, I’m assuming it’s an original pressing. 
An introspective, wild, and searching trio recording, not very good from the engineering  aspect, to me it sounds recorded on a single stereo mic directly to a reel deck, in a rehearsal space somewhere in New York.

Nice sounding LP and the music was better than I expected. I don't know why, but I always thought this would be boring funk, especially with the All Music review. I think it's a fun record and Idris Mohammed is great.

The Lou is a good one, in excellent sound. ‘No fusion confusion’, to quote the maestro.

 

Rearward LP - in mono !

That review is hilariously bad.
