Now playing:

Birthday boy Ornette Coleman and Charlie Haden - Soapsuds, Soapsuds (Artists House, 1977)

So, so good.

Just finished:.

Peer Pressure by Brian Lynch (Criss Cross, 1987)

R-10355614-1495896083-2870.jpeg.jpg

This one is genre work, but done well I think. It is more fun than a lot of other retro stuff from the time. Terrible terrible cover photo - someone needed to turn down the flash.

Now on to: 

Company 5 by Leo Smith, Maarten van Regteren Altena, Derek Bailey, Tristan Honsinger, Anthony Braxton, Steve Lacy and Evan Parker (Incus, 1977)

R-1786708-1504993715-1754.jpeg.jpg

I think this is the pleasantest and easiest to follow of all the Companys, probably because so many of the players had a more intimate relationship with the jazz tradition. Braxton's and Smith's flute playing is really gripping.

I have Company 2, 3, 6 & 7. Sorry to be missing this one.
