Jazz

What does HMV's shipping to the US usually work out to?

I haven’t bought from hmv in a year or two so don’t know currently but, whatever it is, this album is worth it — or, at least, it would be for me.

It’s one I wanted for a while, enough so that I had a saved eBay search for it. A not insanely priced VG+ popped up this summer from a seller who deals almost exclusively in vintage toys and clothes. They apparently didn’t look at Discogs even with their initial price. I offered $60 on it, and they accepted my offer. It’s a very strong VG+ In great shape.

Next on the series OJC (2025):
- Joe Pass, Virtuoso
- Thelonious Monk, Himself
- Wes Montgomery, The incredible jazz guitar
- Miles Davis, Walkin'
- Miles Davis, The musing of Miles
- Bill Evans, Interplay
Hmm wonder if they found tapes for Incredible Jazz Guitar? I remember seeing something on SHF about those being damaged or lost

I won’t make you jealous but found a promo copy of it in a rando record store near me for $25 or so last year! The Japanese pressing has a different track list though? So I may have to grab it too…

It's me I'm jealous 🤚 haha

That's a good bit less than I paid for my copy of In Japan, which was slightly more than @Portland Sheriff paid.

I love this record and will buy this reissue even though I already own 75% of it!

Yep. That one jumped out to me, too. I tried two copies of the recent OJC off Amazon about 7 or 8 years ago, and they were both awful. I have a twofer from the '70s with all the tracks, but I'd definitely double-up to get a high-quality version of that one. It was one of the first records on my jazz journey--one that made me realize I had a very narrow conception of jazz up to that point.
