What albums have you bought lately?

I think they were / are on at something I went / am going to.

I am very sad if it was the past tense version of that.

Great bundle deal Ā£15 for the glass-master CD 3 comps on bandcamp -



I greatly like Iona Laneā€™s music (and sheā€™s really nice in person) so was happy to chip in to the Kickstarter for her next album. Itā€™s a good way to help artists remain independent and creative.

I got the Blakey for my birthday last week, along with the Donald Byrd release from October.

Iā€™m planning on listening to both the Tone Poet release of Kofi and the Classic Vinyl release of Royal Flush before I decide whether to get one or both. Iā€™m a big fan of Donald Byrd but you canā€™t buy everything. Which did you get?

Imported? Or do they sell these UK?

Imported.

Great LP but as it is one of the ultimate lo-fi recordings it cracks me up to see this sort of reissueā€¦ Bet it is good though.

Its not ā€˜audiophileā€™ but then again it shouldnā€™t be. To me the recording captures the sound and energy of the music really well and still manages to recreate distinct instruments etc, without it turning into a murky mess which it so easily could have.

It also hasnā€™t suffered from modern EQing and compresssion etc. Simple and primal sounding - yes and thatā€™s an essential part of the character of the album.

Has the want. Did you get stung for customs or did it just waft through?

Hasnā€™t arrived yet. Iā€™ve had a lot of luck recently with records at least, but it has to come to an end some time.

I ordered John Coltrane and Van Morrison from the same series from the US site, and didnā€™t get stung for customs. Not going for the Stooges but hope same happens for a future order.
