Just bought a bunch of downloads from Amazon, as I didn't ask either wife, daughter or grandsons for any music for Christmas and didn't have much time yesterday.

Yaya Bangoura - Wo koberato!!! - Amacif

Got this on a K7 when it came out but only just found out it was on a CD, so I looked in Amazon and there it was. (I can't be arsed to rip stuff unless it's vital).

And while I was there, got three by Chief Commander Ebenezer Obey that I've had on my waiting list for a few weeks:

Got a very generous family in law and a less generous but very sweet own family. December the 25th was my birthday and that means money for me to spend in any way I want. Without the interference of my bossy wife.... who I love very much but has no musical taste. I think I have spend the money quite well. Quite a lot of trouble with the postal companies so most of them arrive pretty late. These week I received these, all on vinyl:

Most of it is new and sealed. The two Nimbus' releases are on Outernational, that do a pretty great job releasing Tapscott's work. The Rivers is of course a Tone Poet and Tolliver is on Pure Pleasure, the British label that does a really great job remastering and releasing the Strata East legacy.

Definitely money well spent. Those two UGMAA ones are really good re-releases. I love the Oscar Peterson cover art.

I don't know the Doug Hammond, but the line up looks enticing. What's it like?

Happy birthday!

Thanks!
Not sure yet... I saw the line up, listened to some samples and just ordered blindly! Will let you know as soon as I have given it a spin. :)

placed a large order from Cedric at https://japanarchives-mailorder.com. This is my favorite site to peruse from Japanese artists and Cedric is super reliable. Highly recommend anyone looking for this music to start here. I have bought every Makoto Kawashima release from him and they always arrive fast. Really excited for the Masayoshi Urabe 3 LP set he released on his label in Dec. Beautiful packaging.

Makoto Kawashima - 2020-11-13

Makoto Kawashima - 2020-10-01

Masabumi Kikuchi/Masayuni Takayagagi - Live at Jazz Inn Lovely 1990
