Fresh Grabs

I received a fairly big box that was stuffed with careful padding and a padded envelope in the center which contained this.

The Buffalo Tom reissues had a bundle and sale discount so finally bit and am excited for this listening session.

And this came from the Target sale, all beat up, but they will only do a refund no replacement and only if I print a label and return it. That's a lot of work for a better jacket...

Those Buf Tom reissues are great. I need to pick up Birdbrain, even though I have a cd copy
 
Demon Fuzz - Afreaka! (Dawn, 1970 Janus Pressing)
David Mack – New Directions: Essays For Jazz Band (Columbia, 1965 Serenus Pressing)
Tommy Whittle & His Orchestra - Spotlighting (Esquire, 1956 First 10" Pressing)
The Bert Courtley Jazz Quartet – Bertrand's Bugle (Decca, 1959 First 7" Pressing)
Yazz Ahmed - Finding My Way Home (Night Time Stories, 2024 First Pressing)


A great 'haul' from the past few weeks. "Afreaka!" has been a favorite since the first time that I heard it, but it's rare as hens teeth so it's taken a while to find a copy. "New Directions" is the US pressing of David Mack's Columbia release, which I already have so it will be interesting to hear which pressing is better. "Spotlighting" is the final 10" in Tommy Whittle's discography that I was missing. The deal of the week was the Bert Courtley 7" which I lucked out on and typically goes for an eye-watering amount. Finally, a new release from Yazz Ahmed which is actually a first vinyl pressing of her debut release. Great stuff!
