The Nessa Juggernaut rolls on


Recommended Posts

It must have been tempting to add additional tracks to this release. It just sounds so good. Kampen on No Business is good but this is better. The CD era has made us greedy for length, never mind that , feel the width here.

There is more music but we decided this was the perfect program.

Maybe vol. 2 someday.

Just bein' greedy.

Barring unforeseen circumstances, August 2015 will see the release of nessa ncd-37.

Around the first of this year I learned Roscoe Mitchell would be playing a concert in celebration of our good friend Fred Anderson. Sensing this might be something special and using my close relationship with Roscoe, I asked him if I could have the event recorded (on my dime). He agreed and we have decided to issue the concert on cd.

I should add some vinyl reissues might be following in September if all goes well.
