The original art is quirky, but the new art is just mind-blowing
Keith Jarrett - The Koln Concert
A quick question for fans of Japanese music : what's a good retailer to import from ? They'd need to ship to Europe. The cheaper the better, obviously.
The reason : I'm looking for a Jim O'Rourke curated hommage to Burt Bacharach titled "All Kinds of People Love Burt Bacharach", published, apparently by Indies Japan / Zoom and am not willing to pay the extortionate prices asked by Amazon Marketplace sellers.
Keith Jarrett - The Koln Concert
This remains one of my very best used vinyl puchases of all time. Being in good shape, sounds so so so good. And such an out-of-this-world record. I'm assuming there's only the ECM version out there.

I'm checking this out now after reading your recommendations, and WOW... this is such an incredible album, I am in awe.
I've also just called all my local vinyl shops to see if they have one in stock, but to no avail. I will be searching for this one.
I recommend checking out Keith Jarrett's "Sun Bear Concerts" which contains five similar concerts recorded live in Japan a year after his tremendous Köln concert. One of the best thing I own on CD. I know it has been released on LP as well but that might be incredibly difficult to acquire; costly definitely.

Even the CD is costly for this album (box set). The cheapest Amazon sellers have it for $95, and Amazon sells the MP3 downloads for $54. Think I'll check my local stores for used copies on this one.
I order typically from YesAsia. What's great about ordering from them is that they contribute their sale counts to both the Oricon and Hanteo Charts (an equivalent to the Billboards Charts here in the US). They also have a Global site that ships to Europe and other places in the world. Shipping prices aren't too bad either and I did a quick search for the item you are looking for, and it appears they have it for a reasonable price as well.
