Madman Jones is a new name to me. Thanks for the links!

I made my own needle drop of this track. I listened to it all day yesterday!

Yes. Action and It's Time!!!! Jackie's collaboration with Charles Tolliver (later Woody Shaw) was amazing! When Jackie was full-blown, this: And this:

Saw Yes in concert in 1986, recall Jon Anderson being the only original member, but this record is branded 1970's Yes, 2001? Who is on this record? Like Ohio State beat Michigan nice?

Something different. . . Yes “Magnification”

Grachan, and now I see Jim Hall below this, I'm running out of time to listen to music!!! Trippin' now

👍

Ts-find !

It sure sounds nice this morning!

Wintry grey and overcast here too, so I might well be tempted to follow your recommendation and put this one in the CD player next.

November 30 Roberta Gambarini - 1972

Yeah! To jlhoots, why this record I was talking about in my post didn't carry over: In my opionion, this record was when Jackie graduated from be-bop, to post-bop, to when Jackie went full-blown bonkers genius. Absolutely my favorite Coltrane album, period. Grachan, and now I see Jim Hall below this, I'm running out of time to listen to music!!!

The sleeve art alone is killer!

Truly a great set.

Rather pretty music to start off a cold and wintry day. Once again we didn’t get predicted snowfall overnight, I’m liking this trend! Jan Johansson & Arne Domnérus “Younger Than Springtime 1959-61” Dragon cd Dragon is such a great label.

But you DID take note of that Don Byas bio here, Gheorghe ... ?

Thanks very much, Mike. To reply briefly to Mr Fleischhammer's comments: 1) Pity about the Swedish jazz, as there still is quite a bit of territory that is uncharted reissue-wise. But I'll agree that this is a niche market probably not easily exploitable if you are not that close to the Swedish market. 2) Understandable but still regrettable. Provided that recordings remain at all, the 1960 festival, for example, might have yielded the very first documented recordings by Gunter Hampel, Alexander von Schlippenbach and Joe Viera, among many others; each one of them had applied for participation with their own groups. 3) Yes, a real obscurity, that "Modern Jazz Group 60" from Pforzheim. After I had discoved this news item in the JAZZER mag I wrote to Wolfram Knauer of the Darmstadt Jazz Institute but he had no knowledge whatsoever of this either. But since Sonorama seems to have a knack of unearthing unreleased tapes off the beaten tracks of the "usual suspect" artists I figured a question might be worth it. BTW, the list of applications for the 1960 German Amateur Jazz Festival lists a "Hard Bop Group Pforzheim". This might well be them. As for the sales or non-sales of Sonorama records, is there any indication which ones, for example, are particularly slow movers? I have bought several new Sonorama vinyls at our preferred local record shop through the years, but Lars Gullin's comparatively recent "Liquid Moves" CD, for example, already showed up there in the 1 EUR "secondhand odds and ends" special offer bin (and, needless to say, is on my shelf now ).

My favorite Monk Columbia

Lols. Googled, but did not get the Wiki hit, thank you Niko.

Silly for asking, who's Mtume? Sorry still, messed up the spelling, sigh.

Digging this for all the right reasons! Here! Much love for Jack DeJohnette, posting in the Jackie Mac thread.
