Lately, I've been running old American and British made tubes exclusively. As close to NOS as I can get. There is a wonderful quality the sound of certain American made tubes. The GE 6BQ5 is without peer, IMO. As is the Sylvania curved blackplate 12BH7.
However, I have three sets of the Reflektor (Soviet made) equivalent of the 6BQ5 and they are very nice sounding tubes. One set can from an old Lafayette integrated that was destroyed in a housefire. I mean the plastic knobs were melted off, wiring, resistors and caps burned up............but the dang tubes are still good. Test over 90% actually. Friggin amazing.

Went to Youtube:

Laughed uproariously: From Born Under a Bad Sign " A FAT LEG LADY GONNA CARRY ME TO MY GRAVE".
Two great Artists!
From the commentary: The base player is Jimmy's brother. I do not know if that is true.

Bobby Hutcherson: OBLIQUE
A great jazz player of the vibraphone, an instrument which to me
provides a lot of space and air.

Have been listening to the new CD from Sobriquet. Of course, I like it.  Actually I really like it. Here is a video with the title track, Kids of the Night.

The 'Kids of the Night' are alright!  You can hear that they've been working and polishing their skills since the last offering. No fear of long tunes with these guys, 7:01 minutes
Got a link to buy a copy? I like supporting new talent.

Thanks. They have a new producer on this one. July 5 is the release date. I'm sure they'll fill me in on ordering info.
