I've never been a fan of "Some Other Stuff", so a premium LP pressing isn't going to change that.

I think I could see why. It’s not an easy listen, in my opinion it’s even less accessible than say Don Cherry’s BN stuff. Some Other Stuff sounds abstract and unstructured. It took me quite some listens to appreciate. Now that I do I still have to listen with full focus.

Yes it is. It’s great, though not as outstanding as for instance Now He Sings Now he Snobs or Oblique. But still highly recommended

One of my favourite BNs, Moncur is such a great writer and player. I have an original but like it so much I may be tempted by the TP.

Also, a great cover

Yes to all of this!!!

(except the Tone Poet part, I'm too old for that) But otherwise, yes!

Yes I think that cover is among the most beautiful in the Blue Note catalogue. And that surely says something.

I'm a big fan of Evolution and Spring, but not so much of Some Other Stuff, not at all sure why.

Your previous post of this prompted me to have it as a soundtrack to a very stressful all night journey. It was just what I needed, thank you

My copy comes with scratch on the title track for added vintage authenticity...

It's a fine album
