"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)

A lot of the culture in New York was moving further and further downtown in the 1970s and the jazz scene was no different. The 4-story loft at 501 Canal Street doubled as a performance space and home to alto sax player Alan Braufman, pianist Gene Ashton (better known as Cooper-Moore) and a handful of other young jazz musicians recently relocated from Berklee College of Music in Boston. After linking with bassist Cecil McBee and drummers David Lee and Ralph Williams, Braufman recorded Valley Of Search, his lone album as a bandleader for Strata East overflow label India Navigation (the same imprint responsible for McBee’s Alternate Spaces and Pharaoh Sanders’ excellent Pharaoh album), and it has since become a coveted piece of 70s free jazz. “Ark Of Salvation” and “Destiny” ooze spirituality in sheets, thanks to Braufman’s charismatic turns on alto sax, flute and pipe horn, Cooper-Moore’s rich piano licks and the wall-of sound rhythms of Lee and Williams. McBee’s virtuosic solo on “Miracles” achieves new tones for double bass, perhaps returning the favor to Braufman for playing sideman on the classic Mutima LP the year before. Braufman’s nephew Nabil Ayers spent a lot of time at the Canal street loft as a child (yup, he inspired “Little Nabil’s March”), and has taken up the task of reissuing the album on a new label (also called Valley Of Search). This official repress gets a nice remaster, packaged in repro sleeve with original artwork and extensive liner notes about the album’s creation by Clifford Allen. Recommended.
