April Acquisitions
City Pop
Naomi Akimoto (秋本奈緒美) - The 20th Anniversary
Anri (杏里) - ウェーブ
Mari Iijima (飯島真理) - ブランシュ
Mayumi Itsuwa (五輪真弓) - 春愁
Momoko Kikuchi (菊池桃子) - Adventure
Takako Mamiya (間宮貴子) - Love Trip
Taeko Ohnuki (大貫妙子) - Sunshower
Mariya Takeuchi (竹内まりや) - Variety
Hitomi Tohyama (当山ひとみ) - Next Door
Yuko Tomita (とみたゆう子) - Deux
Junko Yagami (八神純子) - Mr. メトロポリス
Akiko Yano (矢野顕子) - いろはにこんぺいと
Outside of Mayumi Itsuwa (五輪真弓), which I took a gamble on for only ¥500 (~$3.75), I enjoy all of these. I would love to have more city pop, and while I'm thankful MP keep a small selection stocked at all times, the stateside import markups can be a bit much. I would love to have more city pop...though something (or a genre) has to give.

μ-Ziq - 1977
Found a cheaply priced ($12) color copy of the debut KLO record on Discogs. Seemed too good to be true, but it arrived as described in excellent shape! Swapped the jacket out with my signed one and will give non-autographed jacket + black vinyl to a friend.
MP convinced me on the newest from μ-Ziq...which is on a very new label that I have enjoyed so far. Mixture of ambient, ambient techno. Very good.

Akiko Yano as well, which I wore at my DJ set yesterday:

My mom got me these sans the Moon Glyph logo (peace sign) and "New Age" pins:

Al Di Meola, John McLaughlin, Paco De Lucia - Friday Night In San Francisco that one's such a gem. it's a travesty they fucked with the cover for that bullshit promo banner, but at least it makes it easy to find on 'cogs

Dodo Greene – My Hour Of Need (Blue Note, 1962 First Mono Pressing)
Dorothy Ashby – The Fantastic Jazz Harp Of Dorothy Ashby (Atlantic, 1965 First Pressing)
Sonny Rollins – Saxophone Colossus (Prestige, 1959 7" Pressing)
John Coltrane – "Live" At The Village Vanguard (Prestige/His Master's Voice, 1962 First UK Mono Pressing)
A few fantastic records that I picked up. The seller of the Dorothy Ashby threw in the Coltrane for free, which is pretty amazing!
Howard Riley Trio – The Day Will Come (CBS, 1970 First Pressing)
Tubby Hayes – Tubbs (Fontana, 1961 First Stereo Pressing)
Jack Bruce - Things We Like (Polydor, 1970 First Pressing)
Stan Tracey Octet – Portraits Plus (Blue Note, 1992 First Signed Pressing)
Melody Maker - All The Winners (Pye Nixa, 1957 First 10" Pressing)
Some brit jazz goodness. I haven't seen a stereo pressing of Tubbs until now and it was cheap enough to double up with the mono. The Stan Tracey was an intriguing release, recorded for Blue Note in the 90's!

April grabs… there were lots of them! First, that sale:
Next we have a couple of RSD releases, plus the used stuff I bought along with them:
These (3 ECMs plus an ECM-adjacent: this fantastic Annette Peacock record) are all from last week’s visit to Dearborn Music:
Lastly, estate sale grabs:

Shout out to @Plaid Room / Colemine for packing their shipments so well. The outer box was shredded in three places but since they packed it so well the albums were in perfect condition.
Jack and Chet arrived unscathed
