NME-vinyl

Recently we had a post on NME-cassettes. The magazine gave away some vinyl too, among other stuff some EPs taped to the paper. Still it is hard to beat the double Charlie Parker album "Bird Lives. The Complete Dial Masters" from 1988. They produced 3500 copies, and you had to send in a coupon to get it. The fantastic portrait on the cover is by Herman Leonard. If you click on the picture of the back-cover, you'll be able to read the tracklists too. Bird lives!
