Jef Gilson – Jef Gilson a Gaveau (SFP/Sam Records 2020 Pressing)
I have been talking to some of you fine folk about the Wax Buyers Club live version of this album today, so I decided to spin this one! Fantastic pressing, im always floored by the quality of Sam Records releases.
Ray Russell Quartet - Dragon Hill (CBS, 1969 First Stereo Pressing)
In anticipation for the Ray Russell Jazz In Britain release arriving (2 copies as I ordered one from Japan before a limited run of 14 signed copies were put on sale) I decided to spin this absolute killer album. I imagine Russell would appeal to a lot of people here as his playing covers a lot of different styles. This one has hints of avant-garde, heavy riffs, etc.
Just got this great PIF from @Ghost - and, despite USPS being delayed for everything else, they somehow fast tracked this record from LA to WI in 3 business days.
