Jacques Coursil Black Suite - which version came first ?

[ombudsman]

I heard years ago that for this title and for Arthur Jones - Scorpio, that it came out first on either America or BYG and was subsequently bootlegged by the other. But I can't remember which, and am not sure if that is true... anyone know ?

[Chuck Nessa]

First issue was on America.

[clifford_thornton]

yeah, that's what I thought too - the America pressings sound quite good, comparatively.

Thanks gentlemen. Looks like time for an upgrade. I have a P vine Japan pressing of Scorpio but it seems the America version is the best option for the Coursil.
