Horace Parlan on BLUE NOTE: Stereo or mono??*

It is

 

On the topic of Parlan, I would highly recommend the Mosaic box set of his complete Blue Note recordings. It is one of my favorite Mosaic box sets.

Hey, I like your avatar. Still got my copy hiding out in the stax as well. I wonder how many of these were pressed? Remember that whacky promo flier they'd often have posted outside...on yellow paper, it had a picture of a kid petting a rat, and said something like "Kids like rats, but kids can't go to the rat unless they have proof of ID 18"...

 

ha! sure do. i was one of those kids....starting hangin' at the rat in '74, all of age 17. man, what a great time. boston music ain't been the same since they decided to close most of the clubs, starting with the rat. ahh, progress...

 

well, well, well....Acoustic Sounds has the Stereo version at $29.99 tonight8/10/07

 

I like the sound of that one too. It's been a good listen for me. After a few listens, I've found the vibe maybe a bit too low-key at times, for my taste, but I guess it's sort of a classy and sophisticated kind of album and I am glad to finally be hearing it after being without it. I like Up and Down very much, and am looking forward to the upcoming XRCD of On the Spur of the Moment.
