Posted 13 Jan 2015 Two new TUMs that look nice: Mikko Innanen w/ William Parker & Andrew Cyrille Bill Laswell & Milford Graves well, amended: YMMV w/ the latter. Duos with Graves are always a good idea, but I can't stand Bill Laswell. Total cheeseball. But I'd keep an open mind for this one. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Posted 14 Jan 2015 Only listened the once, but the focus on the Graves/Laswell seems to be more toward Laswell. If it weren't for the scarcity of recordings by Graves... Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Posted 14 Jan 2015 I find one Laswell/Graves recording on Spotify, called The Stone, with the label given as M.O.D. Technologies, 2014. It is unrelated, I now see. the new one is called Space/Time Redemption. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

As much as I love Milford Graves' music, there's no way I put up with Laswell just to hear it. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Posted 17 Jan 2015 Clean Feed Record is having a 'Stock Off' sale. The server is busy though, but when I was able to connect the price was $7.70 per sale cd. http://www.cleanfeed-records.com/ Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Posted 17 Jan 2015 I don't know how Clean Feed keep up their release schedule. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Posted 17 Jan 2015 I don't know how Clean Feed keep up their release schedule. It's often the case with Clean Feed that musicians bring them completed sessions, and Clean Feed packages and distributes them. I don't think they originate too many themselves. So the release schedule is not so imposing as it first appears. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Posted 18 Jan 2015 Not a lot that caught my attention (that I don't already have), but I picked up: Sten Sandell Trio + John Butcher - Strokes Marty Ehrlich's Rites Quartet - Frog Leg Logic Empty Cage Quartet - Gravity Not at all familiar with the last one, but the blurbs swung me (Waddada is a fan).

Posted 18 Jan 2015 I find one Laswell/Graves recording on Spotify, called The Stone, with the label given as M.O.D. Technologies, 2014. And that's a good one. Somewhat preferable to the TUM, I think (Graves a bit more prominent in the mix, for one thing). Some searching around found me two others that I hadn't run into before Laswell with Leo Smith - also called "The Stone" on the M.O.D. Technnologies site (MP3 and FLAC downloads) - sample sounded promising. Leo Smith "Taif - Prayer In The Garden of Hijaz" - 27 minute MP3/FLAC download on the Naxos label, With Anthony Brown and string quartet - sample sounded a continuation of the "Ten Freedom Summers" concept.

Posted 27 Jan 2015 Two new Rogue Arts: Roscoe Mitchell Trio (Fei/Winant) - Angel City Matthew Shipp Trio (Bisio/Dickey) - For Duke That Shipp "For Duke" should be really good. I heard him play much of it in concert and it was great. And Roscoe of course........ Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Posted 27 Jan 2015 Yeah keen as for the Shipp Duke album, looks like that'll be my first new release of 2015. Shipp's on a roll, the group's on a roll, and the connection with Ellington is mighty tasty.

Total cheeseball. But I'd keep an open mind for this one. if it's the concert recording, I'm told by fans of both parties that it was one of the dumbest things they ever saw. on Colin's reissue note, where did you hear about Karayobin coming out again? It's a great album, but of course the avalanche of new stuff puts historical greatness in perspective. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Posted 27 Jan 2015 That was more of an "I wish/yeah right" thing. I emailed Martin Davidson about it and he said Evan Parker was going to reissue it through psi, but since the label is defunct he doesn't know what his plans are. Anyone know how to get in touch with Evan Parker....? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

I've been crying in the wilderness for a while about him. That particular disc has been out a while. This guy could share the stage with any sax player you care to mention.
