@spiritofradio Nice - I'll look forward to checking out the Piazzolla!

A friend found this in a used shop in Seoul and brought it back for me yesterday on the plane. It's a great pressing, and I like Cal Collins - he was new to me.

 

That Crusaders album last night was really special, one of the best recordings I’ve listened to in a while. Chain Reaction is one of their best records and this copy was amazing.

It appears to be a MFSL test pressing. It’s in a plain white sleeve with a stamp at the top that says "Sample Record Not For Sale" and "Record No. MFSL-1-010A/B Sample No. 5". I can’t find anything like it on Discogs. I have a VG+ standard MFSL pressing also and this sounds much more dynamic than I remember that one sounding and the vinyl is NM.

The best part is I got it at my local record store for $10.98.

@big_greg what a find. Crusaders we’re a great band. Joe Sample (May he RIP) one of the all time greats. In the 70s every decent high school stage band in America played their stuff - this included ours. Wayne Henderson was a idol of mine. You are so lucky to stumble on those test pressings. Love to hear that record sometime.
