I just bought Joe Henderson - Power To The People which has just been reissued for the first time in decades by Craft as part of the Jazz Dispensary Top Shelf Series. Can recommend but not at the Amazon LOL price that I linked to. I paid considerably less at my local record shop. It's a really...

I'm selling the Blue Note 75th Anniversary reissue of Lee Morgan - Search For The New Land on LP for £18 delivered by RM Tracked 48. Both the cover and vinyl are NM. However, it is not the greatest pressing. There is a little bit of noise on side 1 but it's not bad or I would have returned it.

Last remaining Mullard valve now sold. All valves sold.

The matched pair of Telefunkens are sold. Single Mullard ECC83 remaining. Valve no. 4 in the ad.
