In Reply to: RE: ECM on vinyl? posted by FSonicSmith on August 16, 2012 at 06:50:00
This is subject of much heated debate amongst my little jazz circle - especially after a little red wine has been consumed!
Top 10 ECMs (in order of awesomeness)
1) Afrika Pepperbird - Jan Gabarek
2) Ballad of the Fallen - Charlie Haden
3) Free at Last - Mal Waldron
4) Underwear - Bobo Stenson
5) Conference of the Birds - Dave Holland
6) Contrasts - Sam Rivers
7) New Directions in Europe - Jack DeJohnette
8) The Struggle Continues - Dewey Redman
9) El Corazon - Don Cherry / Ed Blackwell
10) Enrico Rava Quartet - E. Rava
Top that New Anvil!! :)

nocoastjazz,
I would add "Gateway" to that list. Holland, Abercrombie and DeJohnette (and some refer to that trio as Gateway).
"Gateway 2" is also excellent.
AND, you and I here in the Chicago area will have a chance to see this trio at the CSO in early November. Definitely going. Give holler if you decide to go.
Here we go:
I'll take three from you:
Afric Pepperbird - Jan Gabarek
Conference of the Birds -- Dave Holland
Ballad of the Fallen -- Charlie Haden
And add:
Rejoicing - Metheny/Holland/Higgins
My Song - Jarrett/Gabarek et al
Terje Rypdal - S/T (ECM 1016)
Deer Wan - Kenny Wheeler
Old and New Dreams - S/T (ECM 1154)
Nice Guys - Art Ensemble of Chicago
Gateway - Abercrombie/Holland/DeJonette
Paris Concert - Circle (yes, I know it's #11)
And, because it's on WATT, an honorable mention:
Social Studies - Carla Bley
I still have many ECM albums I purchased in college and grad school in the mid 1970's to early 1980's and they still sound great (much better than the same titles issued on CD.It would be great if they offered their new releases on vinyl
Their extensive Keith Jarret Catalog as well as the various Pat Metheny offerings.
But the Paul Bley solo Open to Love is an amazing recording/performance for those who love improvised piano.

I appreciate this info but I just checked and every single one of those are out of print. I love Mal Waldron. That LP goes for $100-$125 if you find one.
The Mal Waldron LP is the hardest to find on my list. After hearing a copy at New Anvil's I HAD to find a copy for myself. It only took me a year or so! Ebay - $25.
It can be done - just make a saved search in ebay for it. Even if you had had bad ebay experiences in terms of over-graded LPs (I risk I deem worth making if you want the access to all that vinyl!) ECM LPs generally were played sparingly and are mostly 20 to 30 years younger than other collectible jazz LPs.
The rest of the LPs can be had for an average of $10 to $15 - maybe a little more for the Afrika Pepperbird and Underwear LPs.
