thanks to the original, seeder-taper-trader

I've Lost the original File set, this has been slightly tweaked(Mastered), but not to the detriment of the music...no compression or digi syrup added...



They put heaps of great records out on Delmark, Silkheart, and No More Records, among others.

  7. Devastating. He was one of the few modern jazz musicians who are pushing the boundaries of music. RIP, Roy Campbell.
