Superlative !  A major find from the Beck Estate, put out by the revitalised Turtle Records.

I readily hear this as a Who album; material largely derived from a fruitful period circa Who's Next, which certainly sat in high cotton no matter which direction you travelled along the release chronology!

I need to listen to that more. Maybe it's the mix, but I always have trouble understanding what's going on.

Yes - CD1 includes pretty well a re-run of the ‘Gyroscope’ LP about a week after the Morgan studio recording and is equally brilliant. CD2 has recordings also from the 1975 Gyroscope group with Mathewson in place of Jeff Clyne from the earlier group. All of this material is unissued and came from the personal archive of Gordon Beck - check out that thread on the Hoffman Forums concerning how this release came about (it is a veritable saga with a happy ending). Add to that there is rare Beck Septet material from 1972, solo material and later stuff with Frank Ricotti and Stan Sultzmann. All topped off by a really superb booklet essay by Simon Spillett. End of sales pitch..

Audio quality is variable but in no cases is it offputting and in some instances is surprisingly excellent. Apparently the tapes had ageing/damp damage so considering this, the achieved audio quality is pretty impressive.

Turtle have also just issued a single CD from this archive by the Beck trio plus ‘Johnny’ Mclaughlin (as per the ’Experiments With Pops’ LP) plus vocalist Joy Marshall. Haven’t yet heard it but it is on my list (of course).

Sales pitch sucessfully executed  .... btw Simon Spillett`s writing is always a strong argument for a buy ...

Bill Henderson's Blue Note sides with Jimmy Smith or Horace Silver.

I’m sure his essay for the Joy Marshall CD will be equally enlightening too - given that she features in the Tubby Hayes bio that he authored. I look forward to reading it.
