    Is it me or does that bird look like he's surfing? Now, that's a nice idea for my next taxidermy project.

    The same record also later came out on Kimbo with a different cover and re-titled "Afro-American Jazz Rhythms." Johnny Frigo's name doesn't appear anywhere on the later issue.

    "Apollo" and "Lennox" appear on the Johnny Frigo comp that Ubiquity put out a few years ago.

    I think that's too high. I've seen one or two go on eBay for less than $100. The Groove Merchant had one a while ago but don't remember the price. I'm pretty sure it was under $200 though.

    well, its the toughest Orion LP to pull imo. we'll call it 200 and thats a wrap. The Ubiquity comp is what made it HOT

    There were a bunch of ebay copies about 4 mo back. I copped one for $75, buy it now, and was surprised that the other copies I saw were not selling for much more.

    Btw, the Kimbo's version of this lp has a completely diff b-side. Only the a-sides are the same. Both have "apollo".

    I remember when Jake One had the Orion Lp for $50 (or mebbe it was 75. I should have scooped that back in 99).

    Indeed. I have the Kimbo issue and it is really good.

    I think they retitled a couple songs ("White Sound" became "Peace", "Black Sound" became "Cool"), but it's the same music.

    Interesting - I guess I didn't bother to listen to 'em side by side.

    Brw, M***, you need copies of my cd for the station?

    Here's a pic of the Back cover of the Kimbo issue, just for the sake of comparing the tracklisting.

    i posted mp3s of this in the real headz forum a while ago along with Chicago Jazz Rock...but i dont have them anymore.

    great record, goodwill find for me.

    Just looking at the tracklisting difference between the original release and the Kimbo (kids educational) release, I'm wondering if they changed the 2 track names (white sound and black sound) because of the racial undertones of the titles.

    Anyone else think that?

    "black sound" is the cut! delayed out wah wah is for me. I sold one for around $120 a few years back. For some reason this record is mentioned on lysergic lama clipart site.
