Dusty carries such Japanese books occasionally. On one blurb I read a while back, they claimed that intrepid buyers could use their phones to translate the Japanese text. I don't see that claim in the above blurb, but it still might be possible. 😉

That would be a great book for me if I could read Japanese!

Original LP

This is fantastic.

I just found out about this compilation that was released last Fall. Seems to be a Cherry Red release, which are generally excellent. It has a chunk of Morricone's avant-garde work plus some other interesting material by Berio (incl Sinfonia w. Swingle Singers!), Nono and Maderna. Doesn't fit into the budget right now, but on the long-term wish list.

I thought the 3/10/60 tracks were bonus tracks on Out of the Blue? We need to tell him about Huss Charles

Does anyone in the Chicago area on this board frequent the Jazz at Lincoln Center?

Oh yeah.

"Donny Hathaway Live"33&1/3 series

I think you'll find "Morning Glory" more involving. .. it is at least pretty well-written.

Disc 1

Rahsaan Roland Kirk “The Man Who Cried Fire” Hyena Record cd A killer live performance from Kirk.

Just finished: Now playing: Up next:

I just finished this. I found the first third or so, which covered her life up until she left the Clouds of Joy, pretty interesting. As it continued the writing deteriorated and took on a repetitive quality. It went on and on about Mary's efforts to get the Catholic church to let her stage religious works in church. I don't find her religious works as interesting as her jazz work so I ended up rapidly skimming a lot of that. This is an interesting subject but the book is not terribly well written. I have another bio of Williams, Morning Glory, on order. https://archive.org/details/soulonsoullifemu0000kern/mode/2up

Got it yesterday, Sound is really good.

Marty Grosz was a regular at the Atlanta Jazz Party for years, though he would get on the host's nerves by telling too many jokes at the beginning of sets he led, a problem when individual sets were maybe 25-30 minutes before the lineup changed. I guess Marty is retired now, he must be in his nineties.
