  1. Gene Clark for sure. Also, don't sleep on that run of Mike Nesmith & The First National Band LPs on RCA.
  2. Souled American's discography has just been restored to wide circulation via Bandcamp. I don't know if anyone has ever offered a more original take on the "country rock" sound. But they are definitely an acquired taste. https://souledamerican.bandcamp.com
  3. The Royal Prunes: Thunder In The Throne Room
  4. https://www.discogs.com/release/572568-Centipede-Septober-Energy
  5. https://samosalamon.bandcamp.com/album/dolphyology-complete-eric-dolphy-for-solo-guitar
  6. There's a Tristano thing going on in his playing, at least to my ears. Long, long melodic lines, but, more than that, the articulation he gives each note. Maybe I'm hearing echoes of Dodo Marmarosa, another Pittsburgh pianist, instead? Certainly a slight "cool"ness to his touch.
  7. This one is tempting. IIRC, some of these tracks are mono only [?]. The discography here does not indicate as much, but that's my recollection.
  8. Kirk Knuffke and Taylor Ho Bynum play cornet exclusively, correct?
  9. FWIW, Patton's BLUE JOHN was recorded in August of 1963. Turrentine sounds fine there (to my ears, anyway).
  10. More Tommy Turrentine is nearly always a good thing! Let's hope this one emerges somehow.
  11. Some personnel overlap with the SOUNDS FROM RIKERS ISLAND ensemble, but this appears to predate the recording sessions for that LP by several months (if the LP was indeed recorded in August of 1963). Intriguing either way!
  12. A good life, well-lived. Glad he spent some time with us and made some sounds that will continue to resonate.

    Write-up of last night's DG tribute show here in Dallas. https://stashdauber.blogspot.com/2023/06/oak-cliff-6182023.html
  14. Pretty sure this is OOP, but it's a start / step in the right direction. https://www.discogs.com/release/2968512-Jimmy-Giuffre-Jimmy-Giuffre-Talks-Plays
  15. Am I mistaken or has no one mentioned Cannonball yet? Especially later Cannonball, when the Bird influence becomes less dominant. James Spaulding (though maybe too "out" for some tastes) Art Pepper, especially 70s Art. But then there's INTENSITY... Jesse Davis Ed Jackson (the same Ed Jackson who played with Tom Varner)
