Nice find . . . probably my favorite Shakti album!  

Suprisingly amusing album indeed full of expertise ! It rates pretty low on Discogs maybe because it is uptempo stuff.

#1-6 originally released as Purdie Good! (Prestige 10013), 7-12 originally released as Shaft (Prestige 10038)

In Discogs some people rate pressing quality instead of the music.

I used to be pretty blase about this album. Team ups in general don’t usually impress me much, and early on in my exploration of Jobim and first exposure to Regina. . .I just was not impressed.

That has changed over time. I recently found an affordable copy of this sealed Japanese cd and am revisiting the session. Really enjoying it tonight! The system is really making this edition shine.

A very cool morning. New pet Memphis is finally settled rather clumsily in the listening chair. Starting off with

Charlie Haden Liberation Music Orchestra “Time/Life” Impulse cd

 

[jazzbo]

Yusef Lateef “Live at Ronnie Scott’s” cd

This is a relatively mellow live date, with the blue elegance of Stan Tracey on piano and future Mahavishnu Orchestra member Rick Laird on bass.

Memphis has big "shoes" to fill...

I enjoy that Haden a lot but feel it's not quite up to heights of other LMO albums
