bickster Posted February 20, 2022 Moderator Share Posted February 20, 2022 This must be the most bizarre release ever on Trojan Records. It really doesn't fit their profile Jah Wobble - I Could Have Been A Contender. A 3 CD anthology of his early career which is ordered somewhat randomly and not chronologically so his PIL output is massively different to his other work and it just sort of jarrs against the rest Some great stuff on here, I just don't think the PIL tracks were neccessary Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

bickster Posted February 20, 2022 Moderator Share Posted February 20, 2022 Just now, Seat68 said: Do we include The Boiler as a Specials track? Not really, it's only Dammers and John Bradbury from the band on it (I suppose you could argue Dick Cuthell on trumpet too), there's a Swinging Cat and a Bodysnatcher on it making up the numbers, the main rump of the actual band had got sick of Dammers by then 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

bickster Posted March 1, 2022 Moderator Share Posted March 1, 2022 So, sometime at the end of November, start of December someone posted about a three Jazz albums for a tenner deal on Zaavi. You got three random "classic" jazz albums. I thought why not, the missus can give them to me for xmas and as I won't know what they are, it'll be a surprise for me. They finally arrived today. Because of the cheapness of the deal, I kind of just refused to cancel the order. The money came out at the weekend but again I forgot all about it so it was still a nice surprise to come home to This is the first one of the three Eric Dolphy - Out To Lunch with Freddie Hubbard on Trumpet, Bobby Hutcherson on vibraphone, Richard Davis on bass and Anthony Williams on drums. Originally released in 1964 on Blue Note. Discogs describes it as... Free Jazz, Modal, Hard Bop and Post Bop. Me not a clue what that means It's slightly warped but plays fine, at under £4 inc postage I'm not that bothered. I'm nearly at the end of side 1 and it is the sort of Jazz I quite like because it makes me listen 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I’ve never heard of this album before… I had a copy in my hand today, but eventually swapped it out for something else. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
