  • Did you find out? If not the ear is the pretzel like scribble signature on the run out of NY pressings.
  • There used to be a few record shops nearby the Bluecoat, been a a while though. There was Probe records near the Beatle's Cavern - might be gone now. Check out Crosby beach maybe, 100 Gormley cast men on the beach - if you're into art ish. Also ju…

  • Very nice find, cheers. I wrote a piece on these boys for waxpoetics a while ago. Even managed to get some unreleased shit from their sound man, Wolfgang hirschmanb, 21b, 21Frankb,121b, 21www.proteusgraphicdesign.com/a1
  • Tenoria Jr - embalo Edison Machado - samba novo Dom salvador - s/t (more funky than straight hard bossa jazz though) Quarteto novo - s/t various bossa tres and som tres...
  • I've seen on ebay at least once - i think Anthony Pearson had a copy a couple of years. Doesn't Pickin up on the E-string have the better tracks from the same session not issued on Better Days? Is Burning Spear on Better Days?
  • Has this one been bootlegged? Is there an official reissue? I found an a copy today, the front is very blurry, but the back text is very clear and the label on the vinyl is the green original, I'm confused .. maybe it's a later issue .. I've seen t…
  • No question. How is this even up for debate? When this album dropped in 1999 it was a masterpiece of hip-hop/rap production. It was on some Quincy Jones and Morricone shit. You can't front. You should change the title of this thread to "Oth…
  • Maybe someone would help share some knowledge ... I am looking for suggested listening for any specific recordings or artist who may have flirted with unconventional instrumentation during their career. I have been specifically attracted to Alice…
  • It's worth going around Bankok by boat. There's a world on water you wont see on foot/taxi/tuktuk. It's risky not to book ahead but I remember negotiating good rates at reasonable hotels on Phuket - like ??5 or so. This was 10yrs ago though. Only th…
  • i'm disputing the 'modality' of at least SOME of the records in this thread... it's a bit of a trick question though- even Kind of Blue isn't entirely modal. nice pictures though many of these records are not modal. Yes, I'm agree with you 2. But…
  • I just pulled a few out that are modal or have a modal feel, there's endless bluenote, impulse, strata east... but I have no order in my racks and I can't be arsed to go on - can't find the likes of Coltrane - Crescent or Joe Henderson - Inner Urge,…
  • I just had a look at my vinyl copy of "picking up on the E-string' it's a 10" 33rpm - issued 1995. It's got all the re-mastering details and dates on the notes, etc - need to play it again but I remember mastering/sound was fine and I've got a 5 gra…
  • It's hard to say but I also reckon the best was Elvin Jones as well. It was late 90s or early 2000s I think, at Ronnie Scott's. He was playin with Ravi Coltrane, can't remember who else. Just about everyone left after the first half, deserted the ga…
  • Geeky euro jazz label question: Anybody know which saba label pressings had a "tree" and which were originally pressed sans-tree? (same pink "saba" label, no MPS) The switch had to come around 67... but I'm not sure which got a "tree" label press …
  • I'll have to pick that up - I was at that concert second row from the front - it was dope, even with that bloke from Verve...
  • Appollo 5 and que se sepa is tasty but dont sleep on appollo 1 for breaks style latin soul cover tracks, sing a simple song and spinning wheel. Also Appollo 2 has heavy heavy latin jazz number 'puerto rican blues' which is a killer and another latin…
