"I recently purchased a Pro-Ject Debut Carbon DC turntable from you, and I am really impressed with the level of detail and customer service I’ve received so far. The instruction folder is a great touch, and your excellent site gave me tons of info and insight into buying and setting up the turntable. Bravo!" - P. Cuffari
"Wow. I just got the turntable. It is amazing. I love the bags, I love the fact that I got it literally less than 24 hours after ordering, I love the cartoon easy set up pics, the stickers, record cleaner brush, and the sound is great for the money. SOOO Happy!! Thanks guys and gals--you just created a customer for life."- R. Montgomery
"I love the Turntable Lab, great service & great products. There's no other store or site I'd rather buy my gear from. I'll sure keep on purchasing my equipment from TTL."- D. Martinez
"It's always nice to feel like you're appreciated, and you guys have done a great job with that."- R. Abeel
"Turntable lab constantly deliver the best and most current selection of modern music on all formats. It's my first stop for vinyl house and disco music. The reviews are accurate and I can trust the buyers to source quality product. Customer service is second to none and Bret has been nothing short of outstanding in every interaction we've ever had. Proud to be a Labhead." - G. Laurie
"First off I just want to thank you and your team for everything you do! The equipment and products you sell are awesome and exactly what artists like me need. I remember when I first discovered Turntable Lab by searching online for DJ equipment. I was looking all over for different equipment that I needed and when I found TTL I was relieved to find out that you guys basically had everything I was looking for." - C. Arroyo
"My Rane mixer arrived safely yesterday. I just wanted to say thanks to you and your team for your speedy response to my initial enquiry and efficient delivery. Great price and great service, I'll definitely be telling my friends about it." - A. McConnell (Marrickville, Australia)

Part 2 of BBE's landmark J-jazz series, compiling artists and composers whose names are generally only known to committed collectors of Japanese jazz. This triple vinyl set documents the vibrant soundtrack of Japan’s jazz cafe culture, an elusive network of enclaves tucked away in urban sidestreets with little in the way of signage or advertising of any kind. During World War II, Jazz music was banned by the wartime authorities of Japan, and during the allied forces’ subsequent occupation, jazz was reinserted into Japanese culture just as it was on the cusp of the bebop explosion, playing a major role in Japan’s cultural reconstruction. This compilation collects the finest examples of Japan’s unique interpretation of the music between 1969 and 1984, highlighting the progression from an early copycat style to a thriving period of progressive innovation and experimentation. None of these recordings have ever been released outside of Japan until now, and were previously only available on the original private press LPs which could easily amount to several thousand dollars spent for just a handful of these tracks. J-Jazz aficionados Tony Higgins and Mike Peden illustrate Japan’s calculated mastery of any flavor of jazz you could imagine; check out the lush, latin-infused 12+ minute "Dragon Dance" by Makoto Terashita Meets Harold Land which opens the set, Kosuke Mine Quintet's liberated "Daguri," George Kawaguchi The Big 4’s effortlessly funky "Vietnam,” the Herbie-influenced fusion of Electro Keyboard Orchestra’s “Mother Of The Future,” or Teru Sakamoto Trio's hard rolling "Teru-Teru Bozu (Black Keys)." 14 tracks altogether, pressed on six sides of vinyl and housed in a dazzling gatefold with extensive liner notes, artist photos and original album art compiled by Higgins and Peden. Highly recommended.
- black triple vinyl pressing
- housed in deluxe gatefold sleeve w/ extensive liner notes
- includes full color printed insert + obi strip
- music label: BBE 2018
