    Phono Cartridges - Your favorites and least favorites?

    Just put a VM95ML on the AT-120 that is my basement/covid times office table and am pretty impressed so far. A lot more sonic info coming through vs the stock green stylus. I think the overall gain may actually be lower, but I am hearing more lows in a big way and clearer highs as well...

    I suppose it could just be a random sleeve, but makes me wonder. I will still definitely purchase though based on my love for 1 and 2. I do have to say my copy of 2 was one of the worst shipped records I have ever received. Super weak mailer, no support pads or even bubble wrap. It made it...

    looks like the wildflower is titled outtakes. hopefully its up to the level of quality of the first two. the first wildflower is may favorite release of the modern UK jazz explosion.

    Devastating loss. If you have not watched Full Mantis I cannot recommend it highly enough. Graves was a genius and a multi-faceted creative mastermind. Corbett and Dempsey have reissued Babi and his Yale recordings on CD in very nice packages. Babi is one of the most powerful free jazz...

    Sorry if this has been covered before, but can anyone give me some good starting points for Tubby Hayes?

    This one was all sold out by the time I checked this morning. Bummed to have missed it.

    The Blue Note Thread

    Got to listen to my 71 RVG copy and the new Classic "Speak No Evil" back to back. The classic series definitely sounds good, well worth the 22 buck, but I would say it is not up to snuff against the RVG. To my ear there is a lack of punch in both the lows and highs, as if the whole soundscape...

    The Blue Note Thread

    Just placed an order for "speak no evil" that I will pick up from a local tomorrow. I have a Van Gelder stamped Liberty pressing of it already but since it is one of my most listened to jazz records I figured it would be the perfect title to do a comparison on so I can see about picking up more...

    Thanks for the heads up on the Rendell/Carr! The price point is rough for the US, but I suppose that is how the rest of the world feels all the time...

    I am not sure if it is streaming anywhere. I got my copy from Dusty Groove. I think Forced Exposure has copies as well. The band is amazing. Jeff Parker on guitar, Ari Brown on sax, Abrams on bass and Gerald Cleaver on drums.

    My list looks pretty similar to a lot of what has been posted but I would add: Anna Hogberg Attack - Lena Joshua Abrams - Cloud Script

    So stoked that the Awakening LP is getting a good reissue.

    This is my favorite record out of the whole UK jazz explosion by a long shot. It is so damn good! Dusty Groove usually gets copies of their stuff if you're looking to avoid the shipping cost, but not sure if that'll still happen with this pressing and how whacky overseas shipping has been lately.

    Agreed here! Besides there are plenty of great reissues done of needle drops. Some of the Sun Ra stuff that has been reissued officially have been taken from clean OG vinyl pressings and one of my favorite reissues in recent memory, Khan Jamal's Drum Dance to the Motherland was as well. I...

    I really hope we get a reissue of Babi some day. I thought the Milford Graves doc might finally bring his records back into press.

    So much great stuff! I think I like the Riverside era the best.
