Vinyl that is impossible to find

$150 seems like a decent price for NM.  
Or just wait for a reissue. The in demand discs all seem to get reissued these days. 

I remember several Lost Highway titles having noise/pressing issues. So there’s something to consider when thinking about a remaster vs. an original..@bdp24

Chris- I think I’m the only person on this thread that used the term "spiritual jazz"- which is a loosely defined subgenre for that era in the late ’60s and early ’70s when elements of free jazz merged with Eastern influences during the Black Power movement, reflected in works like those of Pharaoh Sanders, a lot of the output on Strata-East and many small or private label "one and dones" from the likes of Milt Ward and Jothan Callins, or bodies of work from Horace Tapscott and others, mostly claiming "A Love Supreme" as an antecedent or inspiration. 

I’m open to any categorization to help define this era- what do you suggest? All of it as jazz? It really isn’t "free jazz" in many cases and certainly isn’t "straight ahead" and defines a period of cultural change. 

Foggy- what would you use to describe the music that came out of the delta, later electrified in Chicago, used as inspiration by the UK rockers in the mid-’60s to bring back our own native form of work song /lament in the form of blues-rock and is still a recognized genre despite changes over the decades?

In a sense, all music has certain elements in common, but even musicologists use genre categories as a short hand despite strands of origin that may go deeper. I ask out of intellectual curiosity, not pique.

@bdp24  Just get the Intervention vinyl or SACDs of those Judee Sill albums, you’ll thank me later!

I have a US original s/t and a UK press of ’Heart Food" and they are nothing special. Even the Rhino handmade cds and "Abracadabra" (the current 2-cd slipcover set) sound better than those original albums, and I am squarely a vinyl over cd guy for most titles.

@thom_oz: I've been waiting on Intervention to repress the Judee Sill albums, which have been out of stock for quite a while. I have some other Intervention albums (Flying Burrito Brothers, Dillards, Dillard & Clark), which are made very well.
