Damn list. I keep putting it off. I'll get to it. Probably best to write it in word pad and mail it.
Actually not much opera, all the early Rick L. albums, Joni Mitchel. Nina Hagen etc. Nothing rare or collectable there. Nice if you've worn out your copy and want a double. Lots of jazz; Latin (Cal tjader, Claire Fisher...some GREAT albums) odd and little known early fusion, nothing traditionel. I repeat this cause I know what it means; LPs ONLY played on top machines, always cleaned, always in those special sleaves. I used to live where you could listen all day in the shop, handle the records. If they were warped
or noisy, took them back. Even the well-played ones are as perfect as the day I bought them. The covers are worn/scuffed from shipment, lugging them around in boxes. Can't be helped. I was a nut for good sound so most have. Some, like early Tony Rice and Andy Narell, are in the super disk class, never beaten. I'm holding back a few for sentimental reasons. I could have my arm twisted though (hard)
here's one.: Gary Burton Quartet in concert (Carnegie Hall) RCA '68.
