I don’t understand the references to “photoshop” and “frustrated graphic design”. The guy obviously uses a stand in order to get squared up pictures and controls his lighting to get accurate color. He does not edit out cover defects, scratches or anything as far as I can see (which anyone can do with far less intrusive programs than Photoshop). His background program takes a little too long to load, which might be a legitimate gripe.

guys, what’s the problem with our auctions????? Are you jealous we scored the Dr. Herb Wong collection? come on’ we are a STORE and we have to pay the bills. The purchase price is not of your business but please go ahead and discuss for hours the prices we fetched on ebay…

Clifford Allen .. totally agree
vinyl.unlimited auctions are posted by someone with a very frustrated graphic design itch!!
I hate seeing over polished pics in listings, makes me very dubious about bidding.

I have a Japanese XRCD of the Dorham that I bought for a blow out price of $15 a few years back; it sounds incredible so no need to borrow from the bank on an original!

My one annoyance is that vinyl.unlimited postings don’t allow zooming of the photos. You have to save them in PNG or JPEG format, to allow more intense scrutiny. But, he offers excellent titles, and his feedback shows that buyers are satisfied.

I am consistently weirded out by the photoshop presentation of the vinyl.unlimited auctions, though apparently they do sell despite this.

“Quiet Kenny” is an amazing record – Dorham really goes places on the horn – while “Cliff Craft” is a good record. Quite good, but to me it doesn’t have all the spectacular pieces put into place that the Dorham does, in some places even prefiguring someone like Bill Dixon.

Is it the artist or the music? Just wondering. Mr Dorham vs. Mr Jordan.
