What's Spinning

[Selaws]

The Curtis Fuller Jazztet With Benny Golson ‎– S/T (Savoy, 1959 First Mono Pressing)

Very sad to hear of the passing of trombonist Curtis Fuller. Every album he appeared on was elevated in my opinion. @Andy reminded me of this fantastic album which was one that I was hunting down for ages, it always seemed to slip past me until I finally secured this copy. Fantastic from start to finish.

Larry Young - Into Somethin’

#1561-1562

The National - High Violet
Blind Willie Johnson - Rough Guide

Love this album from the National but not convinced by this murky pressing, and fabulous old-time blues.

John Coltrane - Blue Train (Blue Note, 1957 First Mono Pressing)

I just realised that Curtis Fuller was the last surviving musician to have appeared on John Coltrane's legendary and only album for Blue Note records, Blue Train. There's an interesting (well to me at least....) oddity with this album that related to Fuller's photo. On the first pressing, the photo seems overexposed on his head. With each subsequent pressing, a mark appears on his head and becomes bigger and darker. I have attached photos of my first pressing and a later 1972 UA pressing and the difference is really weird.

PJ Harvey - Uh Huh Her

My original copy in NM- condition. Plays like new. No exact matrix match on Cogs. SP US pressing likely mid 70s right after label #variant. Cogs closest match is ‘77

The first album I can remember listening all the way through. Shit plays in my soul. This reissue sounds great, and for a solid price

Some 80’s bands have aged better than others...Tesla was also one of my faves and this album still sounds great to me!
