Experienced a bit of jazz vinyl related controversy.

Back in 2019, Yazz Ahmed released a 12" record limited to 50 copies (@Skalap I believe you were thinking of picking this up at some point?). I picked it up from the Ixchel Records in January, along with her full-length album. On the website the big selling point they used was the limited pressing with a promise of no repressing. I just checked up on discogs and it turns out they repressed another 450 copies with another caveat of 'no more repressings'. Very shady if you ask me, especially considering that they changed the text to say that the first 50 came with a signed print (mine didnt). So looks like they potentially had the repressed records and never updated the website, and therefore misled customers.

Still, its a great track with a cool etching.

Yeah and I've found a bit too much that she kept sending an email every day before Bandcamp day to say there are some 'exclusives" available in store the next day. Apparently she'll have signed version of her two albums today. [EDIT] and she sells her signature for £7 more.

Thank you very much for this response! I’ve only heard 3/24 and LOVE IT. How’s 3/21?

You will like it just as much. Coltrane is a man eager to find independence and he expresses his desire with passion in his solos. Davis, on the other hand, is confident and plays with poise and grace. The contrast works to great effects on these dates, certainly. I wish Columbia will get to issuing the 3/22 concerts in Stockholm on vinyl, too.

Its great because you can almost hear Miles' annoyance at Coltrane when he pushes a little too far at times. :ROFLMAO:

Hi mate, hows that Mingus Detroit box you picked up? noticed it going for £30 so wondering whether to jump on it at that price.

Its a really great set, well worth picking up. I believe the original tapes were given to BBE by the drummer, Roy Brooks', widow and from there they built up the story. The extras are decent as well, plenty of info in the booklet and if memory serves me there is also a replica poster from the original event. Theres hours of music on there and for £6 a record its worth it IMO.

Looks to be on Discogs for £32. I'm quite tempted myself - love Mingus and the only thing that stopped me was its high price (it's equivalent of £90 here in Norway). Always envious of @Selaws getting it gratis

Still cant quite believe it myself. Its value was higher than the record I was actually supposed to get.....and they sent me that anyway!

I can only see the CD box at this price, where did you found the LP box at £30?

Yeah. Discogs. Just ordered. It actually £36 including postage but based on what @Selaws has just said it sounds a proper bargain.
