Just playing The Cry again... When I bought it, the salesperson already commented on the great sound (and, of course, it's also a pleasure to have a physical store in walking distance where a record like this doesn't arrive unnoticed)... It's been a favorite record for a long time, normally I'm not in the market for fancy reissues of things I already have on CD...

Chaos and malignancy. Finally together. Leave the entry level Brotzmanns at the door. 

This is a reissue from a few years back. Not the original. Although I think that Honest Jons East has an original for £200.

That reissue's price is creeping up it would appear. I had a stream and hear what you mean, bet it's on the Thurston list?

Now playing, diametrically opposed

The Herbie Mann/Sam Most Quintet [London Records, UK 1957]

The vinyl is in absolutely pristine condition which considering its age is pretty amazing. Definitely for flute lovers only

I found it in Spitalfields Market one day. Not too expensive.

And yes, I think it is on the Thurston Moore list. Good guess.

Thanks, I'll take a stroll sometime

Herbie/Yardbirds - Blow Up OST (MGM, mono)

For those who don't know, the mono LP has edits of a few tracks that are significantly longer than their stereo counterparts. Mono is definitely the way to go with this one.

I love that version of The Train Kept a Rolling. 

Like a lot of British blues stuff, its secret weapon is that it is a bit inept.

Now spinning:

Bobby Watson's debut as a leader.

Purchased from the Zayre cutout bin for 99 cents, circa 1980.  It was the victim of a record purge 8 years later.

Wow big compliments to Craft records. This sounds amazing. 

I might give it a try. 

As much as I like 60´s avantgarde I fear that both names "Prince Lasha and Sonny Simmons" where lesser known over here in Europe or in my countries. 
We heard late Coltrane, Pharoah Sanders, Ornette Coleman, Don Cherry, Cecil Taylor but I fear those were only the most popular artists. 
I think I have Prince Lasha or even Sonny Simmons on a very strange Dolphy LP from a totally obscure label  "Trip Records" which has an ultra strange tune "Music Matador" which sounds outright melodically for 60´s free jazz.....
And I think I read sometimes the name Sonny Simmons on ESP records, but imagine how hard it was to get that semi obscure label (at least in Europe then, where only a part of the American market was brought in). We all had "Town Hall Concert by Ornette Coleman", but very little else.....

I love the whiplash between the delicate post bop on side one and the track "Jug's Not Dead" that opens the Freemans' set. But its also immediately obvious which of the two is going to be the deeper.

Sorry, I realise that it is actually called "Jug Ain't Gone", not "Jug's Not Dead".

Herbie Hancock - Death Wish OST (Columbia)

Part of a holy triumvirate of fantastic Charles Bronson scores, the other two being Jerry Fielding's The Mechanic and Morricone's Citta Violenta.

Roscoe Holcomb - Close To Home

[adh1907]

Chic Chic Chico - Chico Hamilton (UK HMV Mono 1965). Interesting record, I bought this mainly for Albert Stinson whose playing on Bobby Hutcherson’s Oblique blew me away. Has some good Harold Land blowing space among some arranged pieces with flute and French Horn. Stinson impressive, esp on Carol’s walk. Not released on CD I understand.
