ECM Records on Vinyl

ECM (Edition of Contemporary Music) is a Munich jazz label founded by Manfred Eicher in 1969. Its clear, spacious sound and calm cover photographs made ECM one of the best-known labels in the world, true to its motto “The Most Beautiful Sound Next To Silence”. Key artists include Keith Jarrett, Jan Garbarek, Pat Metheny, Chick Corea and, in the ECM New Series launched in 1984, Arvo Pärt.

Here you will find ECM records, mainly used German pressings from the 70s and 80s. Every record is graded to the Goldmine standard, and the photos show the actual copy.
