I felt the same about the Hammer LP. Flogged it on and just kept the cheapo San Fransisco sampler LP with "Tuame" on...

I too have a German copy (thanks to the Divine one) but there is supposed to be a UK release on the collectable Tangerine label (45cat entry)

Pretty rare but it could turn up cheap given who the record is by!?

You'd think so innit...only reason I clicked the link is through incredulity, really...

I was disappointed with the Hammer too, I found it a one tracker as well.

I love the Philamore Lincoln, I'm sure you've got the LP, if not I'm sure you'll dig it mate.

Ive only got the US single, what else is on the EP then?

**gogo** · 09-07-2011, 12:48 PM

From "c" I took all the Coltrane's records that the guy has. I have done the same with Miles, Monk, Mingus and Rollins albums. I don't know if here (Coltrane) there is something rare. If someone can tell me. And I have no time to listen all in the near future - I'll be grateful if someone tolds me with which album to begin my introduction with Coltrane.

Phew....I know they did another single, not quite as good, but still worthy if you can grab it for cheap.

Yeah, it's great mate, theres a couple of other good garage singles on the label.

*EDIT* Just noticed yours is on Piccadilly, mines on a different label, still theres great stuff on both!

it's all good, but the Harpsichord is the thing that made me go wow.

**medlar** · 09-07-2011, 02:59 PM

Found today for pence Earl Bostic's well known number "Flamingo", backed by "Sleep"; great stuff

the two Village Vanguard records are probably the gateway, but Impressions is one of the pinnacles.

Solid advice, and to answer your other question none of those are rare and many of them look like reissues and budget pressings.

Still, if you've never given Coltrane a real chance they'll all be worth wading through.

All the records I paid with C - some I know, others - no

Nice score, reissues or not. However Duke & Trane and the two Village Vanguards look original.

To me Impressions, Duke & Trane and the first Village Vanguard are classic and fairly accessible. Sun Ship is probably the most free/challenging.

Seems like a really good collection - nice Can find, for example. Looks like an original.

I've never bothered with the Duke and Trane for some reason, maybe because I can't really easily imagine how it works - worth getting, yeah?

**gogo** · 09-07-2011, 08:35 PM

I had listen the 2 Lives and Ole. Really good records like music -thanks to "advisers". No time to listen other this evening, but tomorrow I'll try other one.
CCCP - Ortodosia is a funny punk from Italy (I took it only because of name and because of the red vinyl). Is it popular?

**gogo** · 09-07-2011, 09:35 PM

I found this signature on one record. If someone know something about the Ray's signature... Is it real?

**lord dunsby** · 09-07-2011, 10:13 PM

surprisingly good hand writing ...

For someone who started going blind at the age of 5, and was completely blind some year later if I remember correctly - yes. But what do I know about blindness - maybe I underestimate their ability to learn how to write, but it does strike me as odd that not only is it a signature (that I guess many blind people learn for signing legal papers and stuff??) but also added "best wishes"...

**d7bohs** · 10-07-2011, 02:47 AM

According to Battaglia, the cursive “Ray Charles” autographs that you see offered on Internet auctions are signed by a designated signer who was authorized to sign for Mr. Charles. “Doesn’t anyone ever find it peculiar that they are aesthetically signed so that the signature is perfectly positioned on the white of the photo?” questioned Battaglia. “That would be quite a feat for someone who couldn’t see what they were signing.”

The bottom line for collectors hoping to secure a genuine Ray Charles signature is to proceed with great caution and to be very leery of purchasing Charles autographs that do not appear on legal documents.

It's very nice, if a bit mellow and bluesy.
