    Narrowing it down this past month. Los 5-U-4 is the Venezuelan issue of the Cuban original; "Baila, Ven Y Baila" was included on the first 'Si, Para Usted' comp.

    Shawn Lee is great. I've been a fan since someone gave me a copy of the Ping Pong Orchestra "Moods And Grooves" for free way back.

    Been in a Brian Eno mood lately. My Antilles copy of "Music For Films" isn't in that great condition so it ruins the ambient vibe somewhat, but I really enjoy it





    Dom Salvador is coming to LA this summer so I listened to this for the first time. 



    This one is next




    Sons Of Kemet are also playing here soon.

    Some are hard to make out with that picture: Ethiopian Dread "Rasta Liberty", Flora Purim "Butterfly Dreams", Peter Sprague "Bird Raga" (a couple of the records above may be from his collection, according to the guy at the counter), Andrew Cyrille & Maono "Metamusicans' Stomp" (I really enjoy this one. I also have "Junction"), sealed Four Tops "Catfish", sealed David Liebman " Sweet Hands", Charles Earland "Dynamite Brothers" soundtrack (unintentionally funny movie, by the way. Check out the "East Meets Watts" take on it), Phil Woods And His European Rhythm Machine "At The Frankfurt Jazz Festival", Barry Miles "Scatbird" (is it just me or did he used to resemble a young Roman Polanski somewhat?) Fearless Four "Problems Of The World" (no shit!), Ahmed Abdullah "Live At Ali's Alley" (Arkestra member's group playing at Rahshied Ali's NYC loft. First release on the Cadence Jazz label) , Joanne Brackeen "Ancient Dynasty", Marcus Allen "Petals" and Bertha self-titled.

    "Mitch McDowell pursued a career in law enforcement as a bail bondsman after leaving the music industry. He was murdered in January 1992 along with a nephew, Akili John Davis, 18, who worked in his office. Police noted that the office safe was empty."
      

    I read that one too. Also, GC often played the locally famous Swing Auditorium (which was down the road from the bail bond place where McDowell was murdered) before a Cessna crashed into it, leading to its eventual demolition, on September 11 1981, of all days.
