I've stumbled across exactly one copy in my life - the one I bought - and I've never seen another since. I file it in the zodiac section, which also includes "Soul Zodiac" by the Adderlys and Axelrod. Quote

Solid State was by then under the UA umbrella and Chick was a "star". But before then, the record had quite a cult following. Future Star UNT Piano Prof Dan Haerle did an annotated transcription of "Matrix" in DB long before the RTF era, and now, look at this, Bert Ligon was one of Haerle's star students (and a perfectly fine player). What I get most out of this slowed-down audio is that Roy Haynes! Don't know what DB or RTF are. I shopped in places like mall record stores, and then the larger stores like Peaches when they were around. By the time I started buying, I could find twofers on Groove Merchant but nothing on Solid State. Maybe it was a regional thing. Quote

clifford_thornton Posted April 30, 2018 Report Posted April 30, 2018 Rémy Couvez -- Paysages Intérieurs -- (self-released, FR) beautiful, intense hurdy-gurdy and electronic compositions. I'm new to this artist but am enjoying this record a lot. Quote

Clunky Posted April 30, 2018 Report Posted April 30, 2018 Nathan Davis——-Suite for Dr Martin Luther King Jr———(Tomorrow International Productions) reissue much as I admire Davis this album is uneven with the best bits being ‘gloriously dated’ and some bits just ‘dated’. No idea who is producing this reissue. If your a fan of Nathan you know what to do. If you’re new to him look elsewhere Quote

If only more ears were open...as relevant today as when it was first released especially given recent events in the UK Quote

Misterioso Posted May 1, 2018 Report Posted May 1, 2018 (edited) This one was reissued one day before RSD by Verve. It's the mono version The sound quality is very poor. I wonder how the original sounds. Does anyone here have a mono original? Poor pressing quality as well. Paper inner sleeves scratched all vinyl surfaces. Not recommended!
