And check out the dedications...I did not know of the relationship of Roscoe & Clyde Stubblefield...oh to have been there for any of that!

Just listened to Nine to Get Ready for the first time. ECMish, but not in a bad way.  I like it!!!

Really looking forward to listening to this one:

Jason Adasiewicz - Roscoe Village: The Music Of Roscoe Mitchell

There's a lot of jazz musicians being styled as "composers" these days, but very few who I think deserve the name as much as Mitchell (with apologies to two other more prolific and well known "composers" from the early AACM).

Adasiewicz is a great player, and Mitchell's writing for percussion is particularly strong, so very exciting news.

I would really love to see more of these.
