Never heard of him either. You might want to try and contact the drummer of the album? I found a mail address on his partly defunct website:

was long waiting for a decent reissue. Very happy with this one

Not the most popular Pharoah record I believe but it’s a favorite of mine.

in your book ? You wrote a book ?
Haha the language barrier! Love that. Sometimes it’s hard for us non-native Englishmen to understand what people are talking about 😉
Now if @HutchFan actually wrote a book about his favorite albums I’d buy it in a heartbeat. For now his blogs will do

Could not agree more.
Here is a dream reissue - Acoustic Sounds releases the Complete Africa/Brass in the Acoustic Sounds Series. Way too radical for that series, unfortunately.
It’s really a shame that Chad leaves the full Impulse! catalogue untouched for the fact that he’s not into the more adventurous kind of jazz. The new list struck me with absolute boredom.

The opening track "Ole" also revolutionary for the prominent use of two bassists aka Art Davis and Reggie Workman .... as good as it gets ....
Yeah that definitely works out great.

But seriously, those are two great sessions. When the came out with the extra Africa Brass cuts, it was major, because the original album just had those three cuts. Fleshing out the whole thing like that...wow.
I thought he was his younger. Never liked his playing. Sounds like a Eric Dolphy copycat to me.
Anyway, what I like about the extra stuff on Africa/Brass is that every extra song and take is so much worth it. It should have been released all in once, at least with The Damned Don’t Cry and The Song of the Underground Railroad.

For me they have always belonged to my favorite Coltrane records. But there’s a lot of records by Trane that I count among my favorites. I fell in love with both of these the first time that I heard them. I remember the title song of Ole made a huge and lasting impression on me with that eastern influenced modal feel.

while we're on the subject of Joanne, did she & her partner/husband Charles Brackeen ever record together? It's a zero according to the Lord discography.
I never thought about the common name. Thanks for making me aware of it

The Mal is a definite buy for me. The Cannonballs maybe. That was a great period with great bands. The 1972 contains some of the Black Messiah material without the annoying singer/guitar player. Definitely interested. Also in doubt about the Art Tatum box. Like Chuck also mentioned: I do have a lot Tatum and not sure these will anything really new. Sampling first.

Specifically, no. But the Mal Waldron Super Quartet - Live At Sweet Basil album from 1987 is close-- Eddie Moore in the drum chair rather than Cyrille.
Yeah that’s an excellent record. Mal toured with Andrew Cyrille (and Workman) quite a few times but the only official record with both is the Soul Eyes album from 1997. Plus the one you mentioned of course. Check out minute 8:38, always makes me smile:
This whole documentary by Tom Overberghe is lovely by the way but has been mentioned quiet a few times here of course.

Look forward to hearing this, but I gotta say the cover art and choice of album title are not too appealing.
I agree on that. Part from that I am so in! But I don't think that surprises anybody. The band with Lacy, Workman and Cyrille was magic.

with Baikida Carroll, Roberto Miranda and Pharoeen AkLaff

Actually I`m not a fan of "jazzified" Classical Music, but the Mal Waldron Trio nails it here .... btw sort of companion album to "Breaking New Ground" ....
Yeah that one is awesome as well.

With Reggie Workman and Ed Blackwell

Charles Brackeen with Charlie Haden, Don Cherry and Ed Blackwell.

For some reason the Village Vanguard stuff never really spoke to me. Hard to tell why as I love Newk, like this period and most other people are so damn enthustiac about it. So I decided to stream them once again but still no 'click' here. Won't give up on them yet though. 🤔

I have all the patience in the world but it might be good for the guys at Nimbus to remain silent until they could actually ship them 😁
What vinyl are you spinning right now??

Hurray after two trashed sleeves finally a good copy. Now I am not as sensitive as some listeners but: I could definitely hear this is a huge improvement from the 75th anniversary version. Glad I managed to sell that one
