  7. seconding the comment from September - a Reup would be appreciated - thanks for all the great music here
    keen to hear releases from this label - noticed a few here but most not up and not reissued / available easily

  8. A reissue of this lp will be published by the label serie.woc aka eatingstanding in few weeks. But this reissue is a bootleg. On the Bandcamp page the label pretend that they have the authorisation of Khan Jamal II, the son of Khan Jamal, it is easy to pretend that because it is unverifiable. Legally the person who have the right for the catalogue palm records is Geneviève Quiévreux the widow of Jef Gilson the original producer of this record. eatingstanding never got in touch with Geneviève Quiévreux. Most of the master tapes of Palm have been lost and we can wonder where comes the source they have used, regarding the fact that for the Saheb Sarbib and also the Clarence Peters they have used the rip provided on this blog.
    Souffle continu records will reissue "give the vibes some" starting from a mint lp that will be superbly remastered by Gilles Lojol the sound engineer who works for souffle continu since many years. There will be new liners notes and also some unpublished pictures that will come from the private collection of Thierry Trombert. The souffle continu reissue will be published in the fall of autumn 2024, so if you are a serious listener don't buy the bootleg eatingstanding version and wait for the souffle continu legal one.

  9. Thank you so much for clearing this up, correct silence! I’ll be waiting for the Souffle Continu reissue then. I emailed with Souffle Continu about a year ago (or so), and they told me that they are going to release this in the near future. Therefore, I was a little confused about what's going on with these Italian reissues. By the way, does this mean that most of Souffle Continu's PALM reissues are not from the masters? I have them all and really like the quality, though I only have the rips from here to compare.

    In many case some producers of the seventies didn't imagine that their music could still interest some people several decades after. It is the case for Palm records. Jef Gilson have left this planet many years ago and his widow doesn't have any masters or when she have found some, they are in bad conditions. So yes most of the palm reissues comes from original lp and the sound is re-worked by the sound engineer. In many case the sound of the reissue is better than on the original, it is the case for the François Jeanneau "une bien curieuse planète". The sound of the original lp was very bad, particularly the sound of the saxophone. The reissue have really a better sound, same for the Jacques Thollot "watch devil go".
    The next reissues will be all the Byard Lancaster (3 lp and one double lp). There will certainly be a box. They will also be reissued on cd and perhaps also with a box. Then the Khan Jamal will come in the end of 2024.

  11. Thanks for the info! ...all the Byard Lancaster... Hold my tonearm – that has got to be the greatest box set in the history of music! The work those guys do at Shuffle Continu is... just... wow. Master tape or no master tape, the music Mr. Gilson & his merry men created & produced is profound, timeless, and as deep as a night sky. It's kind of sad that the creators of that era didn't even seem to realize it themselves.
