    I didn't know about this - Marion Brown solo - interesting.

  2. On his own Sweet Earth records. 2nd album is Amina Claudine Myers playing Marion Brown's music on solo piano. 3rd is Marion Playing Jean Bosco's music on... guitar and was never released. The man deserved better than this scanty discography...

  3. thanks pablo. I have this record, but have never digitised it - your 'Blue Circle tube' version is a surety for listening on the train tomorrow morning.
    Great record.

    IB, I've never heard the Amina Claudine Myers playing Marion Brown LP - you don't have a copy do you?

  5. @Serviceton: I have a copy, I do. It's waaaaaaayyyyyy impossible to find. I am currently learning how to plug a turntable to a computer, so I guess I will give it a try!... the results might even be listenable...

    I've split the side-long files into separate tracks and had them converted to flac to reduce download time.

  11. I've only recently discovered your site and these great rare recordings. I've been looking for this particular one for quite a while. Any chance that someone has it for a re-up?
