Fresh Grabs

Thanks for this review. It helped convince me to pick up a copy of the indie blue version. While I was not at that particular Umbra Penumbra show, I did see Elliott play a number of tiny clubs here in Portland back in the day.
Anytime, glad it helped. How does your copy sound? I've seen some other reports of noise... seemingly worse than mine

Top L-R: A pair from uber-talented South African multi-instrumentalist, Cara Stacey. The first, 2015's Things That Grow features Shabaka Hutchings on clarinet and tenor and Seb Rochford on drums. Cara on traditional African bows. Brilliant stuff; The second, 2018's Cedar has Cara largely on piano with Camilo Ángeles on various flutes and whistles including the creepy Death Whistle!); Next, a pair from Vibration Black Finger. This month's Jazzman release, Can You See What I'm Trying to Say and their 2017 debut, Blackism).
Bottom L-R: A pair from the Love Records Stores campaign. There really wasn't much I wanted but I did want to offer some support so I picked up these two that I'd let slide on initial release. Moses Boyd - Dark Matter and Floating Points - Elaenia.; Next, the magnificent EarthSeed from Nicole Mitchell and Lisa E. Harris. Tomeka Reid and Ben Lamar in support, it's a really superb album; And finally on this row, I really dig this new release from South African drummer Asher Gamedze - Dialectic Soul. Asher appeared on the Capetown track from Angel Bat Dawid's Oracle album.

I am listening to a mix by two of my favorite records sellers in Paris: Dj Psykut from Panorama Records and Manu Boulbi from Superfly Records. It starts with Asher Gamedze's song Siyabulela and I am really diggin' it. Made a quick search on here and I am not surprised that you already have it.

So the kinks album is so random. LP 1 has sides 1 & 4 on it and LP 2 has sides 2 & 3 😂


I've got plenty of these, and really hate them. Think they're from the days of automatic record changers. You would play side 1 followed by side 2, then flip them both and play side 3 and then 4. It's *really* annoying on live albums where it totally messes with the flow.

Yes I can imagine for a live or studio album it’d be a right royal pain. For a singles compilation I can’t imagine that playing it out of sync will make too much of a difference!

I was trying to remember which live album I have that is like this and after a bit of checking it looks like it's the Allman Brothers' Live at Fillmore East. Confuses me every single time I play it...
