this is the first LP till today that I dropped on the floor. I still remember how it slipped from my hands and as a I tried to catch it I pushed it against the wall which made even more scratches. Side B was destroyed. I love this music so much that I decided to replace it with a clean copy. Great stuff. On the Nile 🥰

I've dropped one or two over the years. I've definitely had a few covers fall and get banged, which is always a drag.

Yeah it happens before you know it even if you take good care. Maybe I’ll put rubber mats on my floor 😜

I broke 3 copies of Ray Charles 78 of "Greenbacks" without ever getting to play one. That was all the shop had. I took the hint and tacked the remaining label portion of the last one over the inside of my bedroom closet as some kind of reverse-energy talisman.

Frank - Come Fly with Me - (UK Capitol, mono)

The superior mono recording.  The UK album replaces "On the Road to Mandalay" with "It Happened in Monterey," because of copyright issues.

[mjazzg]

Xhosa Cole Quartet - K(no)w Them, K(no)w Us [Stoney Lane Records, UK 2021]

I like this more evrey time I play it.  More straightahead than many of his contemporaries' recordings.  Will be seeing him in an improv quartet at Cafe Oto soon

Just arrived, spinning now - Joshua Redman - Where Are We (Blue Note). I ordered the special clear vinyl with the signed poster. Nice presentation. Dead quiet vinyl (so far) and very well recorded. I wish i was more of a fan of Jazz vocalists but even after saying this, Gabriella Cavassa is OK.

Blue Note is rather annoying in not offering a digital download when one purchases an expensive LP copy. I usually order from Amazon for this very reason, but chose to go with Blue Note for the signed print.

I heard her live with the New Orleans Jazz Orchestra last year and she was indeed okay.

I think my biggest issue with her on this release is that it sounds like it should be Gabriella Cavassa - Where Are We and not Joshua Redman - Where Are We. To my ears, any time a vocalist is part of a band for every track, they are pretty much the leader.

For jazz that is...
