Is it best to keep original covers and LPs together, or do you upgrade each individually as long as it’s the same pressing?

I’m a big fan of Gary McFarland, and the two of them put out a lot of under-appreciated LPs (that you can find dirt cheap!) on Skye, their own label.

Also agree with the free jazz roundup- digging the DIY aspect of the art direction of some of this stuff.

This is an area I collect in, and, in a funny way, it is more interesting from a price perspective, as it is far less clear what is worth what, and what powers price changes. I usually have a pretty good idea what my first issue Blue Notes are worth, but that strange Cecil Taylor album, a hand stencilled Sun Ra, or that Braxton recording from Greece….thats often surprising!

I believe I saw him in 1978 (college days), performing at the Catamaran Hotel in San Diego.

At that time, I was listening to records on the CTI label. One of my favorites was Gabor’s “Mizrab”- such a haunting and lovely piece of music.
