 .... this Sabicas LP was also originally released on Columbia (see below):

I understand that Sabicas was a huge influence on Paco de Lucía.  

Listening now, it's not hard to understand why.

Excellent ....

Now spinning:

Sabicas - Flamenco Virtuoso (MHS); licensed by CSP

I just noticed an odd coincidence.  Like the Fajardo LP I posted above, this Sabicas LP was also originally released on Columbia (see below):

I understand that Sabicas was a huge influence on Paco de Lucía.  

Listening now, it's not hard to understand why.

Just finished: Jazz At The Flamingo - 10th Anniversary Tribute (Ember Records/Future Noise). This is a various artists compilation that I picked up cheap at Acoustic Sounds a few years back. Good stuff. It's still there for $15 if you're looking for an addition to your cart for free shipping.

Now playing - Baritone Madness - Heavy Berries (Swing Master). I found this one in a dollar bin years ago and rarely play it. As much as I like bari sax, the music isn't very compelling.

The Beatles - Magical Mystery Tour (Apple Germany). I was able to pick the "true stereo" LP (A1/B3 matrix) a few years ago before the prices went nuts. I actually had this "back in the day" as I had heard about it from a local record shop (Shirl's Record Whirl in Holyoke, MA) when I was a teenager so I had her special order me a copy. The release of these stereo mixes on CD kinda ruined the novelty of this LP as it's not the best vinyl I've ever owned but it does make for an interesting story.

This LP sounds like it is monophonic! If il had a mono switch on my amp l would have checked it.

Just put on the CD for comparison - the LP copy l have is indeed mono!

I don´t usually listen to that kind of jazz but "Stompin´at the Savoy" is a tune I always did like, you really can do still a lotta things with that fine tune in that beautiful key of D flat. 
If Oscar doesn´t overdo this one I mean if he plays at least a bit more sparce (like he would on some records like "Night Train" or on that Pablo think with Lockjaw Davis, I think it could sound nice.......

I seems there is not many bari players around here since I must admit I never played with one.

But who is the players here ? There was really a good conclave of bari on Mingus´ "Something like a Bird" where you have them great players Pepper Adams, Ronny Cuber, and who knows else, and the really flippin´ on there chorusses and taking 16´s , 8´s , 4´s , there is no better bari battle I have ever heard. 

But who is on this one ?

Now spinning:

Jack McDuff - The Heatin' System (Cadet, 1972)
Essential Soul-Jazz.

I'm spinning the Bellaphon version of this album issued in Germany. 

[Teasing the Korean]

Pat Williams - How Sweet It Is OST (RCA Victor, stereo)

[HutchFan]

Next up:

Herbie Mann - St. Thomas (UA Stereo, 1962)
This LP is a reissue of a title originally released as Herbie Mann's African Suite in 1959.  For contractual reasons, it was credited to Johnny Rae's Afro-Jazz Septet.  I'm not sure why UA reissued it just three years later, this time under the actual leader's name.

It was also reissued on Solid State as St. Thomas later in the 1960s.  I've run across a few copies of the original African Suite with clean covers and trashed vinyl.  I ended up putting a clean St. Thomas vinyl inside an African Suite cover. Some record collectors are horrified by this kind of mix-and-match, but I don't have room for trashed vinyl and boring covers (as my reply to your record storage thread would suggest).

I'm not horrified by that sort of mixing-and-matching at all.  If it floats your boat, then it's CORRECT.  We're not museum curators at the Smithsonian.  We're music lovers!

Yup!

[JSngry]

I would, however, hope that being a music lover is not intrinsically incompatable with being a music curator at the Smithsonian.

Then again, I've never looked at the Smithsonian's job reqs, so maybe it is.

It is, after all, a world gone wrong.
