Sat. morning’s 1st listen. New release on the great small label International Anthem. Damon Locks Black Monument Ensemble. Really nice sounding vinyl. Stunning performance by all. Heavy gatefold with gold metallic cover and obi. Red in Black vinyl. Edition of 333. Recommended.
Phoenix - Wolfgang Amadeus Phoenix (VMP, 2019 pressing)
Had great fun listening to this with my girlfriend. This is her pick-up really as I was going to pass on it but she listening to it a lot when it was first released. Surprisingly flat copy from VMP.
There's a few somewhat recent VMP releases I still haven't gotten around to listening - Phoenix is one...
Oriental Jazz and Left My Blues In San Francisco are a couple more. Haven't listened to their X - Los Angeles exclusive, but I have recently listened to other pressings of the album.
