Signed Pence is grossly overpriced as you'd have to pay me to take it.

Resale prices on these are absolutely insane

I am definitely going to get Formation. I have only seen it at auction one or two times in many years. I really like Maki. Also a very tough one to find. Hopefully they will get around to Trio by Trio +1. It was supposed to be reissued a year or so ago but was suddenly shelved. My hopes of...

That first solo on Status Seeking has always been a personal favorite from this album.

Any word on what Lee Morgan material will be in a box set? One of my absolute top Blue Note albums is Search for a New Land but almost every one of his albums is killer, regardless of whether it is hard-bop or post-bop. Many many years ago I was working in a record store and an OG of Candy came...

Misty and Midnight Sugar are the workhorses of TBM. I see at least 56 different issues between the two titles. They sell very well because they appeal to the jazz purist.

I do not know the sourcing on the Project Re: Vinyl series but I have not been disappointed by any of them so far.

Hideo Shiraki's "in Fiesta" and Takao Tomoyori's “Dah Nah" are getting reissued: 白木秀雄の日本ジャズ史における名盤と沖縄出身のTs奏者、友寄隆生唯一のリーダー作が再発決定|Jazz

Well overdue for another reissue. Originals are impossible to find.

Maybe Black Jazz had a radio station strategy with producing so many promos. Sales never quite caught up and there was a lot of cut-out and sealed stock left around even in the 90s when I started collecting. Even now, it is weird how many sealed Black Jazz albums are still out there.

Interestingly, I've seen more promo copies of this record than regular copies of this record. Killer album.

Very special find indeed. I've been after this for years myself with no luck. Last copy I saw for sale was listed for a crazy price.

As I understand it, licensing some of this work is super complicated because of Japanese intellectual property law but it looks like whatever was holding up a repress was sorted out. That is great news because this was getting crazy on the secondary market.

I thought I read that Chad Kassem hated Alice Coltrane so this is interesting to see.
