Nice!Needed a new stylus timer for my incoming XML and decided to grab those cheap jazz records shared a few pages back from Elusive Disc: Blakey in Tokyo, Fast Livin Bues and the Lester Young/Sam record.
Didn't realize this was getting a Contemporary Acoustic Sounds Series reissue:
Prince Lasha Quintet - The Cry! [Contemporary Records Acoustic Sounds Series]
Prince Lasha Quintet - "The Cry! (Contemporary Records Acoustic Sounds Series)" / Released in 1963 on the Contemporary Records label, "The Cry!" Is a free jazz album by saxophonists Prince Lasha and Sonny Simmons. Also featured are Gary Peacock and Mark Proctor (bass), and Gene Stone (drums)...www.plaidroomrecords.com
Anyone have thoughts on this album? The sample I listened to online has me intrigued. I suppose this is "free jazz," but in a 1963 way.
it's been on my wantlist for awhile. really like that reissue label and this album is rad.Did you just convince to me to buy a record I've never heard of based on a few sound snippets and (mostly) FOMO? Yes, yes you did.
I got a $100 settlement yesterday from some data breach so I basically turned that into this record and an Evans RSD from a couple years ago. I suspect I'll like this record based on skimming the tracks, but if I don't I also suspect I can quite easily make my money back on discogs.it's been on my wantlist for awhile. really like that reissue label and this album is rad.

Seeing as it's now starting to pop up for pre-order, time to share something cool.
A few months ago, the Universal Music Group approached me to ask if they could borrow a few of my British jazz albums to obtain high-quality scans of the album artworks and labels. I headed over to their headquarters here in London and chatted to them for a while before lending them the records, and they were kind enough to give me a few of their recent reissues as well as the promise of having my name associated in some small way with the upcoming reissues (which would be super cool!).
Well, looks like the first album has been announced as its up for reissue, Joe Harriott's 1964 "Movement".
