Yeah, same here.

@MikeH and I were talking about this earlier in the thread, but the guy asking $330 bought that last week from a great shop here in NJ, who always prices stuff very fairly. They probably had it for around $200 or just below. He bought it just to flip.

I actually messaged him and asked how much they charged and he got all offended that I even knew he bought it there. Told him if he’s going to flip records from a shop, he should probably remove the very obvious description card they place on all of their wall records, with their shop name on it. Hope he has to hold on to that for a loss now.

May I ask what shop? Roll through a few times a year and would love to do a flip - always happy to support shops who get it. There are sadly plenty who don't! I was in Charleston, SC a couple weeks ago and a shop had new stock of Blue Note Classics for $40 and Tone Poets for $50. Promptly walked out.

Nat Birchall : Akhenaten (LP, Vinyl record album)

Mindblowing work from a tenorist we only just discovered with this amazing debut album – a deeply spiritual player who comes off beautifully on this set of original compositions! Nat Birchall blows with a range of feeling that takes us back to the 70s best of Pharoah Sanders, Billy Harper, and...

It's a great listen, but I'm not so keen I'd pay that much for it.

Not gonna defend the price of the Pan Afrikan Peoples Arkestra 60 Years release bc it’s obviously expensive, but as an explanation, The Village is a tiny label working on a relative shoestring. I know small labels can put out cheaper records, but, today, a new local shop near me posted on Instagram that someone from The Village dropped off two copies.

I picked one up for $60, avoiding shipping and we have no state sales tax. I was happy to support a small shop and label and the band/musicians. Again, not defending and not trying to preach, but if I’m willing to pay $35 for a single Cars album to a mega corporation when there are plenty of cheaper great-sounding copies available, I feel ok spending $60 under these circumstances.

It helps that the music is great.

Yusef Lateef really didn’t play a single note that wasn’t perfectly placed on Don’t Blame Me. Always have to pause when that song comes on.

What are other jazz songs that you feel you know every twist and turn on?
