On the road Saturday in Kingston, Ontario I found this impossibly cluttered used record store.
It was one of those places where the aisles are not quite big enough for one person, let alone two. At one point I had to back out of the store to let other people - a couple of tolerant, but bored wives - in.
Little slice o' heaven, it was.
Anyway, I grabbed a Stephane Grappelli/Roland Hanna/Mel Lewis/George Mraz session from 1973 on the Arista/Freedom label.
As far as I know, most of what's on Arista/Freedom has never been reissued, though obviously the Anthony Braxton was on Mosaic this past year, and CT's 'Silent Tongues' has been available on the Freedom label for years.
First, does anyone know different? Second, does anyone else collect the label?
