JSngry Posted August 20, 2021 Report Share Posted August 20, 2021 Thanks, just pre-ordered. Also see a Georgia ann Muldrow remix of "Clear and Distinct". Got that one too, DL only, but just one track, works for me. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guy Berger Posted August 22, 2021 Report Share Posted August 22, 2021 (edited) Pre ordered as well. Henry’s run on Pi is starting to creep up high on the list for “best run by a jazz artist on a single label”. I like that the albums have tended to be on the shorter side.

Steve Reynolds Posted August 22, 2021 Report Share Posted August 22, 2021 In my Bandcamp cart (along with another 8-9 CD’s) - I love the most recent releases / and I enjoy the concise times of the pieces and the recordings yet there is plenty of improvisation.

Great music. Doesn’t yet stand out to me relative to the other Zooid albums but that’s a very high bar. The album’s notes includes a brief dedication from Henry: Dedicating this music At this time In this moment To, in their greatness I will not Shall not Forget: Ahmad Jamal, Sonny Rollins, Wayne Shorter, Charles Lloyd, Archie Shepp - - - - Artist Time…. 19, 20, 21…. “…The butcher has told the meat how to behave while being slaughtered.” (Emilio Cruz) Edited September 19, 2021 by Guy Berger Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

JSngry Posted September 22, 2021 Report Share Posted September 22, 2021 Starting my morning with Poof...it's amazing how easy it is to listen to this music...it's not at all "easy" music, but is incredible easy to listen to and follow the stories. Truly this is mastery in every regard. And at under 40 minutes playing time, even more so. There is a time for every time. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Eric B Posted January 20, 2022 Report Share Posted January 20, 2022 Just smoked some weed and put on "Air Time"...one of life's rich pleasures. I really only know Mr. Threadgill's Air and Sextett output (although I did get to see Zooid live a couple years ago). Need to dig into the rest of his body of work. Just ordered POOF. That dedication is moving -- I hope Maestros Jamal, Rollins, Shorter, Lloyd, and Shepp have all received it. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Coincidentally I received 2 orders for the Air Time lp today, both orders from the Atlanta area. Maybe 2 pals smoked some too. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I know backlogs are crazy right now, but have you considered doing vinyl reissues of any of the Art Ensemble titles? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
