Musical Heritage Society records get a bad rap in general... obscure orchestras and pieces.  But I have always found the quality to be acceptable to pretty good.
Beethoven's  Piano Concerto #3  by the Hungarian Philharmonic, Caridis conducting, and Ludwig Hoffman soloist.  Solid performance and recording for  $.50

  Still cannot figure out how they got away with that cover. Looks like child abuse.

Well, it wouldn't pass censors today, but in the 70's we accepted that humans had a sexuality before 18 years old. 
I'm all for protecting kids, but we are kinda crazy about it today.  If a 17 year old high school senior nailed his 28 year old French teacher, he wasn't traumatized and the teacher didn't go to jail.   
As a high school teacher for 30+ years I saw plenty of 16 year old girls that were the predators and not the prey.  It obviously a loaded topic.

Miles Davis: Rubberband



Qobuz 96/24

Believe it or not, just released yesterday, this is a brand new Miles Davis album.

From Qobuz:
Recorded in 1985, these pieces were not strictly written during the trumpeter’s heyday. That year, Miles shocked everybody by leaving Columbia, his record label for over 30 years, to join Warner. The move was all the more surprising given that over the preceding few years he had enjoyed commercial success thanks to The Man With the Horn (1981), Star People (1983), Decoy (1984) and the rather commercialised You're Under Arrest (1985). In October, at the age of 59, he began recording a new album entitled Rubberband in Los Angeles with producers Randy Hall and Zane Giles. During the sessions the trumpeter took his playing in a radically new direction, incorporating funk and soul grooves into his music. He even planned on recruiting Al Jarreau and Chaka Khan for the vocals. However, the album was never released and instead Miles Davis turned his attention to working on his famous Tutu with Marcus Miller, leaving Rubberband’s tracks unreleased for over three decades. But now, the treasure chest has been finally opened. The album was completed by its original producers - Hall and Giles – along with Vince Wilburn Jr., Miles Davis’ nephew who played the drums in the original sessions. The eighties synth-drenched sound features a funk/disco rhythm section. In fact, some tracks, on which Miles is rather discreet, do not sound jazzy at all (especially those featuring vocals by Ledisi and Lalah Hathaway). In any case, it is impossible to listen to Rubberband, which was conceived with keyboardists Adam Holzman, Neil Larsen and Wayne Linsey, percussionist Steve Reid, saxophonist Glen Burris and drummer Vince Wilburn, Jr., without thinking about that very distinct musical period. Nevertheless, on themes such as See I See, Miles’ distinctive phrases are still as impressive as ever. And throughout the album he unleashes a few soaring solos. More than enough to satisfy his fans anyway. © Max Dembo/Qobuz
