JAZZ A CONFRONTO 21 - DON PULLEN - HLL 101-21

"Don Pullen was one of those rare creative geniuses who could inspire others not only through his music, but through the example he set as a human being." (D.D.Jackson)

I bought this vinyl on e-bay, and the seller knew that the cover identify the first printing of the record, but when this record I was delivered, inside label identified it as a reprint (you remember the specifications of this label?).
Once placed it on the turntable, I understood the reason for this exchange: the B side is just VG-, because of several clicks away disturbing listening, especially toward the end of the track "Traceys Of Daniel".
Happens.
But the music of Don Pullen, and his companions, made me forget the trick of the seller.
