ejp626 Posted March 20, 2008 Report Posted March 20, 2008 Broke down and pre-ordered Miles from India and Very Saxy from CD Universe (they have the best price by far on Miles from India) Some odds and ends from Amazon marketplace and eBay: Illinois Jacquet: The Soul Explosion Jack McDuff: Screaming Willis Jackson: Soul Night Alive Milt Jackson: Night Mist Nik Bartsch: Holon Toumani Diabate: The Mande Variations I should like all of these but am the most interested in hearing the last two. This weekend I hope to pick up Horace Silver and Jimmy Smith CDs from a local shop (supposed to be on hold but it doesn't always work out). Quote

mikelz777 Posted March 23, 2008 Report Posted March 23, 2008 (edited) Fleetwood Mac - Complete Blue Horizon Sessions 1967-1969 I combined my 10% member discount with a 20% coupon code for Barnes & Noble online to get a pretty nice deal on this 6-CD set. This version of Fleetwood Mac has nothing to do with the pop/rock most people are familiar with. (Stevie Nicks and Lindsey Buckingham weren't yet part of the group.) This is edgy blues lead primarily by Peter Green and Jeremy Spencer with Mick Fleetwood and John McVie on drums and bass. I was in the record store the other day as they were playing some Cream and I got a yearning for some British blues. Edited March 24, 2008 by mikelz777 Quote

Chuck Nessa Posted March 25, 2008 Report Posted March 25, 2008 Still trying to fill some gaps created by the sale of the bulk of my lps. Now concentrating on old Fantasy reissues. Mose Allison, Lockjaw, Moondog, etc. Quote

The Magnificent Goldberg Posted March 26, 2008 Report Posted March 26, 2008 Three very nice CDs turned up from Ghana lunchtime They're all by HipLife rapper Tic-tac Masom was his first, in 2001 Masem was his second, in 2002 Wope was his fourth, in 2004. Interesting to get three at once. He developed away from his primary influence, Busta Rhymes, towards a much more Ghanaian style by 2004. I think I'll get a few more of his if (I can find them) in a while. MG Quote
WorldB3 Posted March 27, 2008 Report Posted March 27, 2008 (edited) Ron Blake's latest, Shayari Let me know what you think of that, I found it to be well played and very nice sounding yet its still not grabbing me. I think it may be one of those its me not the record kind of thing. Latest purchase, need more classical in my collection. I really like the other Michelangeli I own.

Niko Posted March 27, 2008 Report Posted March 27, 2008 I finally got VISA and I decided to buy *some* cds i feel my first credit card is coming nearer as well, always avioded one for reasons of (lack of) self-control... while in britain i bought much more diverse stuff than i usually buy, guess because there was a half-decent brick and mortar store (Fopp) and buying there always leads to other results, and there was this nice sale of whatmusic albums at 4 pounds... 23 pounds well spent on Jacques & Micheline Pelzer - Song for Rene Open Sky Unit - Open Sky Unit Vitor Assis Brasil - Tajeto (the winner of the bunch so far) The very best of Ethiopiques (2CD) Beth Orton - Central Reservation (first cd of pop music i bought in quite some time; i used to really like "Stars all seem to weep", smoother than i had remembered but some nice songs) 7 pounds i should maybe have avoided Deodato - Prelude Deodato 2 Deodato/Airto in Concert (haven't listen to most of the three so far) Paulo Moura Hepteto - Fibra Quote
The Magnificent Goldberg Posted March 27, 2008 Report Posted March 27, 2008 I like the first 2 Deodatos. Got them on an Australian twofer. Very influential stuff - course, you may not like the results of that influence... MG Quote

Very influential stuff - course, you may not like the results of that influence... MG ok, Prelude is now getting its second chance (more accurately, the first three minutes get a second chance, the rest gets a first chance)... just hate it when i leave a shop having bought something just because it was cheap, thinking for just 1 or 2 pounds more you could have gotten something you really wanted... (say, Andrew Hill's Judgement) but then, three pounds total for the three albums (two of them influential) can't really be a bad deal... Quote

Fopp has always been excellent for bargains. It's the only UK store where I've ever bought a CD for as little as £3. (It was Lennie Tristano and Warne Marsh, Intuition on Spanish Blue Note.) And, of course, at the moment as a Euroland shopper, you have a huge advantage when buying items priced in the sliding pound or dollar. Quote
king ubu Posted March 28, 2008 Report Posted March 28, 2008 Ordered several discs from EMI's "Americans Swinging in Paris" series, which I only just noticed is OOP by now, from various marketplace sellers on French and German amazon: Kenny Clarke Lucky Thompson both Bill Colemans (hopefully the sellers have logged them correctly and I don't end up with two of the same...) Zoot Byas Sammy Price Phil Woods Slide Hampton Lionel Hampton Decided to skip the Memphis Slim, Golden Gate Quartet, Earl Hines, Wild Bill Davis and Mezzrow. The Cat Anderson is gone, and the other four (Art Ensemble, Dicky Wells, Benny Carter & James Moody) I already have. Weird little series, not nearly as good as it could have been... (short discs, weird compilations, including sessions included on too many similar compilations already) Quote

Manchester's was re-opened by HMV (but retaining Fopp's name) and from what Niko says it sounds as if Cambridge's is OK too. Quote
