Clunky Posted March 1, 2014 Report Share Posted March 1, 2014 Picked up three John Lewis London Atlantics - all mono, Golden Striker, The Wonderful World of Jazz and Improvised Meditations & Excursions. All seem pretty solid sessions , I can see why Golden Striker might out live it's initial appeal but it sounds nicely done to me. Also got the Milt Jackson UA- London illustrated above. These London LPs are so good IMO. At £6 each , same price as a CD, not bad. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Clunky Posted March 1, 2014 Report Share Posted March 1, 2014 Nice finds - I think my 'Golden Striker' was a fiver, alberit US Atlantic mono version. Scott Yanow is pretty damning of Striker at AMG, I'd be interested to know what seasoned Lewis watchers here think of it. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
sidewinder Posted March 1, 2014 Report Share Posted March 1, 2014 Interesting that all 3 of those John Lewis Atlantics have just come out over here on CD in the 1000 Yen series - I wonder if someone has just 'upgraded' and dumped their vinyl? Always our gain.. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Leeway Posted March 1, 2014 Report Share Posted March 1, 2014 Another good one from No Business (and this one is still in print ): THE MAJOR - Nobuyasu Furuya Quintet - No Business LP-- Furuya (ts, fl, cl), Rodrigo Pinheiro (p), Eduardo Lalo (tb), Hernani Faustino (b), Gabriel Ferrandini (d, perc). (essentially Furuya with the RED Trio with Lalo added on trombone). This is a good one! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

xybert Posted March 2, 2014 Report Share Posted March 2, 2014 What's that? New? No. It's a vinyl only release on a label called Hardedge from 2005. It features HT playing a lot of solo Hubkaphone with Zooid passages interspersed - almost a concerto for Hubkaphone! I've always wondered about this album, one of the few Threadgill's that i don't have. I can't imagine it being bad, but is it worth me going crazy over?

Homefromtheforest Posted March 2, 2014 Report Share Posted March 2, 2014 Miles Davis "kind of blue" (Columbia USA 6-eye stereo) I also have a 6-eye mono, a Canadian 6-eye stereo, a Japanese Sony issue, the anniversary box set, the Columbia legacy CD, and the SACD of this title. A bit crazy but it's not that bad of an album Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

B. Clugston Posted March 2, 2014 Report Share Posted March 2, 2014 KAMPEN - Bobby Bradford, Frode Gjerstad, Ingebrigt Haker-Flaten, Paal Nilssen-Love. No Busines LP. Recommended. I gave that a spin today as well. Bradford is the Kenny Dorham of the cornet--as in highly underrated--but I'm glad this album is getting lots of love.

I felt it was pleasant at first but didn't have enough substance for me. Not bad music, in any sense, and I'm sure other ears will find things to like.
