1) Strata East Fan Club
Strata East is a "spiritual jazz" record label created by Charles Tolliver in the 70's. All the LPs are consistently dope, and consequently they consistently pull down anywhere between $20-$200 on eBay. Rare.
These fine gentlemen took it upon themselves to put up every Strata East LP on this blog with links to places to download them. Uh... free downloads of every rare Strata East gem I've been coveting on eBay for the last 5 years? Yes, please.
2) Pharaoh's Dance
Here's another gem i found clicking around. It's like myjazzworld but 100 times better with focus on funky jazz, out jazz and spiritual jazz.
Between these two here are just a few of the winners I found:
Those are all certified dope, but that Don Cherry record is especially good.
Oh, and maybe you've also heard that the new Tortoise is on radiobutt, and it's totally fucking awesome?
What a world, what a world!

God, I'm on the verge of anxiety over all the good music to download on these blogs. Those stupid Rapidshare delays are the only thing keeping it from taking over my life. Of course my new fave is
http://mps-love.blogspot.com/
which is a MPS label blog I found. That Stata East thing is a whole other can of worms. I'm considering just grabbing those 2 comps on there and then pretending I've never heard of it.
Checking out this MPS/BASF shit now. I don't really know where to begin, but under the "misc" section i already came up on a few gems. Another score.
