I was streaming this on Spotify and though I was enjoying the music a lot I was really annoyed by the bad sq. Was this recorded so badly or is this one of those Spotify mistakes? Anyone with the cd here to check?
-
There’s nothing wrong with trying to get the best sound possible out of you’re speakers. In that extent I might be an audiophile too. I think the disdain is more directed at those more concerned with the sq than the actual music. And I don’t see you as one where that might be the case jazzbo 👍

I saw him with Anouar Brahem this year and it was magic. Same goes for his attributions to Brahems new album.

Pharaoh Sanders live in Paris (1975) ORTF source
Pim replied to cliffpeterson's topic in New Releases
Yeah I definitely agree. In my memory at least the tracks were complete where with the Shepp release they even cut them off. That really prevented me from getting it because that’s also a very interesting session. -

That’s not bol.com using those photographs this is the actual artwork used by the label…. I’ve got a part of this session on the Disques Transversales label which was legitimate and from the tapes. It’s one of my favorite Pharoah Sanders sessions so curious to hear the rest but if this is a bootleg I”ll pass. -

So is up for pre order on a Dutch website https://www.bol.com/nl/nl/p/pharoah-sanders-love-is-here-the-complete-paris-1975-ortf-recordings/9300000234054068/?bltgh=qLCFn-x5dVVkL-C6ZxxA0Q.i70GoxRfH3UDXsHI0iBGNw_0_9.13.ProductPageUrl Doesn’t look legit to me. Any idea if it could be? -
such a great band. I especially find the combination of Davis/Waldron/Woode a very strong one. Part from the Benedictine Monastery record they must have recorded more those days. Still hoping for new records to be issued…. Probably the only music for today. It’s gonna be a lovely 30/86 degree day here

In the city of Gent I saw boxes with LP’s outside in full bright sunlight at 25 degrees Celsius (77 Fahrenheit)….

What are your thoughts about/Interactions with AI?
Pim replied to Dan Gould's topic in Miscellaneous - Non-Political
i use ChatGPT mainly to alleviate the annoying and boring aspects of my work. in education we have to justify a lot of things in writing. the mountain of policy documents keeps growing and although you are obliged to have it all on paper, there is not a soul who reads it... it is mind-numbing and demotivating. because I am half in front of the class and half in management as a department head, it takes up an even larger part of my work. in this area AI is real and a godsend. it produces high-quality documents, can critically review and test them and gives good instructions in areas that I know less about. it really saves me hours of work that I can now put into my lessons and students. in addition, I notice that ChatGPT can search much more efficiently and specifically than a search engine. another way I use it is to clear up difficult passages in philosophy books I read. For exception now with Hegels book, it provides excellent explanations and summary’s which make me able to check if I actually understood what I’ve read. it could also be very useful with jazz music. You could ask for 10 albums where Evan Parker plays solo saxophone or on which albums a specific jazz musician played with another. of course I realize that ChatGPT makes mistakes. when I asked as a trick question whether Charlie Parker and Coltrane had ever made a recording together, he replied that they had indeed 🫣 -
Yeah cant get much cooler than this… well there’s always Superfly of course 😇
-
Kant could be tough but Hegel is definitely more complicated. I read in Dutch and I think reading it in another language than my first will make it even more complicated 😉 but I don’t mind. Just means I will get slower trough it and leave it aside on those evenings when I am tired or unfocused. Got his biography for those evenings which is very fun to read and gives his other book more context.

The biography is an easy and enjoyable read. The Phenomology of the Spirit is also enjoyable but in parts almost unreadable. But I like a challenge and I’ve got ChatGPT on my side to get me trough it 😇🤣

I avoided those ezz-thetics releases up till now for several reasons. I always enjoyed the released by Hatology but came to find out they made the silly decision to omit essential tracks for cds there as well. The latest cd reissues of Steve Lacy’s Prospectus and Blinks for example should have been two cd sets but they decided to omit tracks and make it 1 cd. I bought the vinyl instead for that reason.
-
Yes that’s a great one. The Strata East is cool but nothing spectacular. I think on this record he comes more into his own. Very solid band. I’d say @Dan Gould will like that one.
-
Thanks ! Been awhile since I’ve listened to the Kowald. I do know both the Wadud and Friedlander and like them a lot. Thanks for the tips Thanks Mark. I’m not familiar with him (yet)

Never been there physically (well when I was 2). I’ve ordered lots of music from Black Monk who is specialized in jazz. https://maps.app.goo.gl/KuYze4tDVrQK174q8?g_st=com.google.maps.preview.copy https://www.schallplatten-ankauf-verkauf.at

Five Photos (Minutes) to Make You Fall in Love with Ella
Pim replied to Dan Gould's topic in Miscellaneous - Non-Political
Ah Rhodesian Ridgebacks are beautiful dogs, congrats Dan! It’s only going to take a few days before he puts his teeth in that cd/dvd/book collection 😋 -
so glad this one was selected for the TP series. I just love Andrew Hill. I could definitely see why Matthew Shipp mentioned him in his ‘Black Mystery School Pianists.’ A true original on the instrument.

As I was listening to the Sankt Gerold Tapes by Evan Parker, Barre Philips and Paul Bley I really enjoyed the parts where Phillps was soloing. Well I enjoyed every single part of the album but it made me realize i havent got a solo bass record. So my question: what are your favorite bass solo albums? Thy may only name five
