Gil Melle 'Tome VI' (Verve, stereo)

I was just listening to that one the other day. Better than the AMG review would suggest. The one I hope to get my mitts on someday is the Andromeda Strain, which has some the coolest packaging ever.

Yes, a fine group--with Charlie Mariano, Walter Norris, Stan Levy, and Max Bennett.

Alan Shorter - Parabolic - (Verve/Polydor UK)

Damn - still looking for one of them. The CD will have to do.

I see both pressings often on the 'net; will let you know the next time one passes by.

Tome VI is a real favorite of mine.

Andromeda Strain is almost impossible to find at an affordable (for me) price.

Never had it but would enjoy hearing that.

Fanga - Dounya (EP)

This is a tasty Afrobeat group. The vinyl looks tasty too (it's semi-transparent and chocolate-colored).

I recently won this in a waxpoetics contest.

The question was: "In which African country is the city Fanga located?"

Would you have won too?

I knew fanga mainly as a traditional hand-drumming rhythm.

It's nice to finally have the turntable connected up in my new digs...
