Wax Treasure (Vinyl)

@endo It got replaced, at least in the UK by the skulls on a cross cover. My copy has the same cover as yours, but I bought it around when the album came out.

[endo]

I know. But it always pissed me off.

[Aetas]

@endo Even the painter Robert Williams found his painting from 1978 inappropriate for a record cover …

What's your thoughts on that Coleman record @GraemeE ?

[GraemeE]

@J-IV the sqwawk level is about what you'd expect but I can appreciate it even more now after finishing the last of 3 shades of blue where they briefly dive into the "free" era

[GraemeE]

Also the influence of that style can definately be felt all over this tune 40 years later

[NickD]

Ornette Coleman is on the approachable side of free jazz, same with most Coltrane. Anthony Braxton and Cecil Taylor are where it starts to get challenging!

[GraemeE]

@NickD said in Wax Treasure (Vinyl):

Cecil Taylor

I seem to remember Branford Marsalis describing his stuff as "self indulgent crap" on the ken burns jazz doc

[milesd702]

acquired a grail this past weekend. Anyone here up on Mach-Hommy’s music?

[J-IV]

@NickD @GraemeE Albert Ayler is when it gets a little "out there" for me. Free jazz / Avant-garde really takes off once it hits Europe or Japan. Folks like Peter Brotzmann or Kaoru Abe push the envelope of the boundaries of jazz

Los Paul - a bit of NDW with Dada and a pinch of punk

Girlfriend in a Coma @GraemeE :
“There were times when I could have muuuurdered heeeer.”
Loved the phrasing when the song came out and can laugh about this sentence nowadays ;-).

Lard - The Last Temptation Of Reid

Owned this only on CD.
But thanks to @endo, a vinyl version lingered into my life.

A new shop opened in my town, specialized to jazz.
Mentioned my desire for some old time punk and gates opened slowly. Looks like he is holding back a beautiful collection he bought years ago and is hesitant to pull upfront.
This is record one of three I could could squeeze out so far.

What about you @Mizmazzle …

[Mizmazzle]

@Aetas damn! I don’t have any Lard on vinyl. I need to remedy this

Can’t wait to see what else you were able to finesse from this mystery collection!!

[Aetas]

Record two out of three…

DK - Fresh Fruit For Rotting Vegetables

[Mizmazzle]

@Aetas classic!!!

And sounds so much more vibrant on vinyl …
