Some words on this issue: NOAH HOWARD: “The Black Ark” (Polydor – 2383-093) Top Notch Copy, Original 1st issue UK pressing. This is the stunningly rare original UK pressing of Noah Howard’s “The Black Ark” - one of the most legendary/unavailable/whispered-about free jazz sessions, featuring a young Arthur Doyle (his recorded debut!!!), Norris “Sirone” Jones, Mohammed Ali, Leslie Waldron, Earl Cross, and Juma ... The excellent cast of supporting musicians that included Sirone (who was then still going under the name Norris Jones) and (in his recording debut) Arthur Doyle who sounds on fire and viciously deranged throughout. Recorded in 1969 in NYC and later released on the UK’s Freedom label, this was also one of Howard’s earlier releases as a leader. This album features four solid compositions by Howard, who is also excellent on alto throughout, whether crafting soulful themes or pursuing more aggressive solos. The whole disc sounds like a napalm bomb dropped on unsuspected villagers and burns throughout its whole duration.
New to the e-bay game but long experience in selling records so bid with confidence.
Our grading scale: Mint/ Near Mint/ Excellent/ VG++/. We don’t sell anything below VG++. VG++ grade is basically that the record has some scuffs and has wear. Excellent: record has hardly no visible defects and is preserved with care and attention, the condition most collectors take pride in to file away. Near Mint: a dash below mint, just perfect. Mint: like new.
