David Murray Black Saint Quartet - Sacred Ground

presence of Cassandra Wilson is a real bonus - I could listen to her sing anything, I think

David Murray -Blues For Memo [Doublemoon]

thought I'd join in with something more recent from Murray.

This album really works for me and that includes Saul Williams' spoken word contributions. the great Craig Harris too

Works for me too.
