I only have the Biz Markie mix which for some reason also got a vinyl release in the US and isn't hard to find. It's great! Heavy on rare groove, loads of great tunes and Biz's rough and ready mixing style and rapping. All the mixes are on Mixcloud if anyone is interested.

Saw her in Kassel, Germany, October 12, 2002

I was lucky to see Geri perform many times over the years. Phenomenal player. She wasn't much older than me, so I was just as shocked as everyone when she passed away. Cancer sucks.

Disc 1

I've never heard that -- but I bet it's interesting music.

I saw Geri Allen leading a trio at the Village Vanguard in October 1998 and at the Atlanta Jazz Festival as part of a Detroit All-Star Ensemble, year unknown.

Looks like download only at this time: https://roncarter-thejazzaarfestivalbigband.bandcamp.com/album/remembering-bob-freedman

Dusty's "sale" purchases... Johnny Hammond Smith — Soulful Blues (Ebb Tide/Nasty) Johnny Griffin — Bush Dance – Bush Dance/Call It Whachawana Phil Woods with Red Garland — Sugan Willis Jackson — Legends Of Acid Jazz – Keep On A Blowin'/Thunderbird We'll see if they come through. My luck at this place has been poor to say the least.

I was at this show. It was great. I was able to sit right up in front of Geri Allen at the piano. There are other videos of that show on YouTube but they appear to have been posted by someone who had a thing for Esperanza. The trio was scheduled to return a year later but Geri passed unexpectedly before the show. They brought in Nicholas Payton to sit in the keyboard chair. That show was also very good. It was more of a Geri Allen tribute, so the mood was very different.

Where did you get this one? I like Bob Freedman!

Op.64/1, Op.64/2, Op.64/3

Bad Plus (version with Taborn & Potter)

Downbeat February 19, 1970

new Bill Callahan CD

It's 1997, I saw the same trio in Vitoria.

Very much enjoyed this 1987 live rendition of "Feed The Fire" (with Ralphe Armstrong and Lenny White)

Does anyone have access to downbeat and cadence?

Disc 1 - Liszt: Piano Concertos / Boris Berezovsky, Hugh Wolff, and the Philharmonia Orchestra

Thanks for posting that 2013 video. Great to see those woman play together! Definitely something I would like to have seen live.

One of Martino's best LPs.
