Gregorythefish, wow what an impressive hunt!
If you can let me know the name of the shop I will check it during my next trip to NY.
Thanks!

TheLoner,

I have purchased from him on eBay and was quite pleased. But his store is not in any way worth it to me. I found a little hole in the wall in Brooklyn near him where I got an NM original mono “Round About Midnight” for $15 because the cover had a tear on the back. Now THAT is a store worth visiting. I will look up the name.

“Polite and professional seller, but certainly not the most enjoyable fellow around, quite cold.”

I think alot of online sellers open shops to move the trashed pieces etc. There is a store near me that does this. I wont even go in anymore

Been to Northern Lights one time during a trip, I am from Italy. Conditions are not that good it is true but they are priced accordingly. Never saw another cheap store in NY as this one, suggestions of other stores are more then welcomed if you think I am wrong.
Bought a lot of items from his ebay too and I don’t think he overgrades. Polite and professional seller, but certainly not the most enjoyable fellow around, quite cold.

As I Said there are Libertys an there are Libertys. The early Libertys are generally verk fine pressnings contesting the P NY pressnings. In later years the got thinner and of less quality. Thinner Sunding and less dynamik. But you know this already I’m sure;-)

The Van Gelder hit sound presents a mixed blessing since the records IMO are prone to get groove distortion.

yeah chewy-chew-chew-bean-benitez I believe he’s still alive (would be 76 right now). His records from the ’60s and ’70s are surprisingly hard to find.

oh and to make it even MORE mysterious i have never found one of the Pucho prestiges in the wild. i can totally see how they could “go for big bucks” with “whoever is actually dropping hundreds and thousands for jazz lps in 2015”. to this day i dont have any pucho lps in my presige section 🙁
