Rudolph Carter .... prior to that with the Percy Sledge Band ...

Indeed ...

Fabulous .... should be shouted from the rooftops ....

True ....

I also pre-ordered the CD from Resonance, along with the Sonny Rollins set from 1959.

I definitely considered it but spent more time at the Legion of Honor and the Japanese Prints in Transition exhibit instead. https://www.famsf.org/exhibitions/japanese-prints

So it may be an easy fix. I won't mess with it just yet. I will consult with my wife, who is better on Apple computers than I. But she has been busy with her ailing mother.

This is still available. Held it for interested party for 5 days and he backed out at last minute. Price reduced. $150 (+$13 media mail shipping for this very heavy box set). That averages to just $16.30 per record shipped! This is a great way to get an instant Ornette Coleman at a reasonable cost compared to buying individual albums. Postal insurance is optional but please add $4 extra if postal insurance desired. Payment by pay pal friends/family. Ornette Coleman: The Atlantic Years (10 LP, Atlantic/Rhino, 2018). NM/NM - everything is conservatively graded as Near Mint condition (slipcase, record sleeves, records, booklet). I bought this set brand new a few years ago, took the shrink wrap off, played each record once, and then put it on a shelf in my music room. I say NM since it is not sealed and since I played each record once, but everything is in great condition and all records are flat and centered and play perfectly. The set consists of the following 10 records, all housed in a sturdy slipcase. It also includes a very nice and large booklet with color photos: The Shape of Jazz to Come Change of the Century This is Our Music Free Jazz Ornette! Ornette on Tenor The Art of the Improvisers Twins To Whom Who Keeps A Record The Ornette Coleman Legacy (includes 6 racks available for the first time on vinyl) https://www.discogs.com/release/12092211-Ornette-Coleman-The-Atlantic-Years Pics available upon request (please provide me with an e-mail address via pm if pics desired so I can e-mail pics). I will pack this set carefully, ship it in a sturdy box, and provide a postal tracking # after shipping it. Satisfaction Guaranteed: The item is as described but if Buyer is unhappy with it for any reason, Buyer can return it to Seller within 7 days of receipt (Buyer pays return shipping cost) and Seller will provide a refund.

Yes, that's correct. Messthetics are bass/drums from Fugazi plus Anthony Pirog on guitar. It's an interesting combination of progressive loud rock and jazz. Not for everybody, but I like it. Saw them at Big Ears, too. Very high energy.

I haven't been paying attention. So I am surprised to see that the Knicks are the #2 seed in the East.

Drozell Pirdle III - Third Time's A Sham

Chrome didn't log in correctly on my Windows laptop today either. It was there, but none of my links signed in as usual. After I rebooted, everything was fine.

Honestly, I haven't listened to all the disks that much. There are some tracks with a sax player that don't work well. But like any group of live tracks, some are better than others. Let's just say the original album wasn't wrong. But I like the idea of hearing complete shows, as opposed to a 'best of' from multiple shows. The most successful so far is Jimi Hendrix, "Songs For Groovy Children" (The Fillmore East Concerts). A real tour de force!

This is probably the only RSD vinyl I’m purchasing. I want to have this one in vinyl; also makes the notes easier to read. I will probably order the other RSD releases that I wish to purchase in cd. If it’s sold out, then I will just get the cd.

Yeah, I'm being a little unfair. I will check reviews and feedback when Freeman's book is published. I'm more likely to purchase Young...Freeman probably the library route (if available) or perhaps Kindle.

There's another Creative Music Studio Improvisors Orchestra event in Kingston next Sunday 4/28 https://creativemusic.org/events/ Not quite as gaudy a lineup as the last one (3/31), but I enjoyed that one so much that I'm going on the 28th.

Intending to be there. And just announced today: Joe McPhee also at the Lace Mill (Kingston) 5/19. Music and spoken word w. McPhee, Fred Lonborg-Holm and Michael Bisio.
