The more I read this site, the more I enjoy it. I just put some albums in an auction EBAY (7) Nothing exciting TEB2007. But since I value you guys and your comments I would like to have some comments on how to inprove on the write ups. You know years ago when I put out catalogs. Would just list the grading standards and what the abbreviations meant, most collectors understood! listings would look like this
Crystal Joy – Hanover 8002 M-/M- MB $35.
Thanks

I only have the stereo but would love a mono too.

I’m a big fan of stereo but I agree with you 100% about A Love Supreme, the mono version is the definitive version IMHO with Coltrane front and center.

I know some people worship this recording but I have the same pressing and its sonically the most odd stereo recording I have. Coltrane, who should be the focal point, is parked on the far left side, the other musicians muddy in the middle, and its like the right speaker is unplugged. Its so “unnatural” a soundstage I find it near impossible to listen to.

The seller positively salivated in his description which might account for the late interest.

I bought some very pricey records from them when i was rich :-). And some cheap, too. Always cooperative, fine people. Fore sure its a good adress. Just like Roundagain, they deserve their success.
