Soul Stream Posted April 26, 2005 Report Posted April 26, 2005 oh , i forgot ... how's this Leo Wright? I have the original LP and it is very, very, very good in the sense that it is just a good hunk of 60's organ soul jazz. The kind played in bars with little fanfare. Nice to hear Gloria Coleman in her element. Songs and solos are kept to 2 or 3 choruses for the most part and it's all blues pretty much. If you're a critic, steer clear. If you like it greasy....buy it. Quote

wolff Posted April 26, 2005 Report Posted April 26, 2005 Runt Distribution(and their labels) sure has filled a niche for me. I believe they've reinvented quality, also. Both in packaging and sound. I own the following: Aretha Franklin - Never Loved A Man (The Way I Love You) LP Sonny Sharrock - Black Woman LP Otis Redding - The Great Otis Redding Sings Soul Ballads LP Art Blakey's Jazz Messengers - With Thelonious Monk LP Aretha Franklin - Soul 69 LP Aretha Franklin - Spirit In The Dark LP Herbie Hancock - O.S.T. Blow-Up LP Linda Thompson - Fashionably Late 180 gram LP Solomon Burke - Don't Give Up On Me 180 gram LP Jesse Sykes & The Sweet Hereafter - Reckless Burning LP Jesse Sykes & The Sweet Hereafter - Oh, My Girl LP And these will be purchased very soon: Aretha Franklin - Live at Fillmore West LP Judee Sill - Judee Sill LP Judee Sill - Heart Food LP Albert Ayler - Holy Ghost 3LP(and the to be issued sets) Albert Ayler - Nuits De La Fondation Maeght 1970 Vol. 1 LP Albert Ayler - Nuits De La Fondation Maeght 1970 Vol. 2 LP Eddie Gale - Eddie Gale's Ghetto Music LP Eddie Gale - Black Rhythm Happening LP I wonder if the artists appreciate/notice the care their music is given by these guys?

Tony Pusey Posted April 26, 2005 Report Posted April 26, 2005 Well Wolf, I am not sure that either Ayler or Sill are in a position to notice one way or another! Quote
wolff Posted April 26, 2005 Report Posted April 26, 2005 Well Wolf, I am not sure that either Ayler or Sill are in a position to notice one way or another! No record stores in the after-life? I like to think so. Quote

sidewinder Posted April 27, 2005 Report Posted April 27, 2005 No record stores in the after-life? I like to think so. Stacked full of Blue Note deep groove originals and Mosaic OOP vinyl sets, all at the original selling price.. Quote
Tony Pusey Posted April 27, 2005 Report Posted April 27, 2005 But in Hell the vinyl melts and you are reduced to burning your own cd s! Quote
