David Ayers Posted January 19, 2014 Report Posted January 19, 2014 Steve Lacy--- Moon----(Affinity) Sunny Murray----An even break ---(Affinity) Archie Shepp--- Yasmina/ A Black woman ---(Affinity) Ok, these are probably boots of boots ( I think ) but sound ok and clean enough to hear the music. All 3 bought yesterday for £8 seemed reasonable. BYG originals are hard(ish) to find and can sound pretty poor in my experience. Interesting music all worth hearing. All good - but why boots, according to you? Quote

These don't sound like needle drops but I gather some reissues of this material are. Good music none the less Quote

David Ayers Posted January 20, 2014 Report Posted January 20, 2014 Well we are often told that musicians didn't feel well-treated by labels, but it is really clear these performances are properly licensed and this has never been challenged. I just feel there is sometimes too much of a rush to denounce label practices. I know you didn't mean anything. Affinity was a label that served us well, even if apparently they may have occasionally seemed a little sharp to some musicians. Good haul, good price! Quote

The Magnificent Goldberg Posted January 24, 2014 Report Posted January 24, 2014 Quick post arrived from the US for Kasse Mady - Manden djeli kan - Universal France (Wrasse) I think I've got all of his albums now - probably the greatest male vocalist from Mali and one to me mentioned in the same breath as Kouyate Sory Kandia.

xybert Posted January 29, 2014 Report Posted January 29, 2014 I'm really in to hard bop at the moment. It's a side of jazz that i've only really warmed to in the last couple of years, hence i have some major gaps in my collection. Some recent accuistions: Sonny Clark - Sonny's Crib Sonny Clark - Cool Struttin' Sonny Clark Trio Red Garland's Piano Wynton Kelly - Piano Kenny Drew Trio Quote
Kevin Bresnahan Posted February 5, 2014 Report Posted February 5, 2014 After many, many years of searching for an affordable copy, I finally found a copy of Lew Tabackin's "Angelica" for under $30 at amazon.de. Now I only hope that it comes in. There's even another copy left: http://www.amazon.de/Angelica-Lew-Tabackin/dp/B008Y255T2/ref=sr_1_1/279-0380511-0524428?ie=UTF8&qid=1391624616&sr=8-1&keywords=lew+tabackin+angelica Quote

colinmce Posted March 5, 2014 Report Posted March 5, 2014 I also bought some Mark Whitecage today. Hope to go back for a few more from the cleanfeed sale if it's still on next week. Quote
Clunky Posted March 5, 2014 Report Posted March 5, 2014 On my wish list!,, Sampling this set on Spotify, lovely although the recordings/ masterings seem to lack depth Quote
Steve Reynolds Posted March 5, 2014 Report Posted March 5, 2014 The Nu Band: Live in Paris (NoBusiness) The Nu Band Live (Konnex) What We Live: Especially the Traveller Tomorrow (Metalanguage) I really like that What We Live recording. Expansive, relaxed and a great sounding recording to boot. Quote
Leeway Posted March 5, 2014 Report Posted March 5, 2014 I also bought some Mark Whitecage today. Hope to go back for a few more from the cleanfeed sale if it's still on next week. That Parker/Guy/Lytton/Evans is a real good one, one of the best in the Clean Feed catalogue. Quote
imeanyou Posted March 6, 2014 Report Posted March 6, 2014 Picked up a first stereo pressing with NY labels and Van Gelder stamp. The only copy I've ever come across in 15 years of Tokyo crate digging! Cover is in great condition and the vinyl unscratched though dusty. Music ain't bad either ! Quote
