Rooster_Ties Posted January 26, 2022 Report Share Posted January 26, 2022 (edited) An obscure CD I've had for 15-ish years, that I've always loved. I seem to recall thinking of starting this thread several times before, but never was able to find uploads to share -- but the whole thing seems to be up on YouTube now. LOTS of collective improv (or at least multiple-simultaneous-soloists, if you think there's a distinction) -- and just the right amount of dissonance for my taste (quite a bit, but the timbre of the instruments isn't 'crazy' out-there). Anyone else have this one? I'm pretty sure I traded emails with him 15-ish years ago too, just to tell him how much I dug this album when I first got it. http://brettsroka.com/bio.html https://www.discogs.com/release/4054339-Brett-Sroka-Hearsay http://www.brettsroka.com/ "Hearsay" (13:48) - title track... "Happy-Go-Lucky-Ism" (6:20) "Tabula Rasa" (6:50) Edited January 26, 2022 by Rooster_Ties Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rooster_Ties Posted January 26, 2022 Author Report Share Posted January 26, 2022 Looks like started another thread about this album, way back in 2003 (so I've had it more closer to 20 years)... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

mjazzg Posted January 26, 2022 Report Share Posted January 26, 2022 Yeah, I have that. Haven't listened to it in probably a decade but remember good impressions. Thanks for the reminder All my CDs are boxed up so can't revisit it immediately. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kevin Bresnahan Posted January 26, 2022 Report Share Posted January 26, 2022 It's too bad that Brett never made his way over here from the Jazz Corner (or was it the Blue Note BB?), where he posted under the pseudonym "Hearsay". I seem to remember pre-ordering this when he told us about it. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
