He is, but what about Tsahar?

If I remember correctly, John B was also quite enthusiastic about Tsahar, especially his Open Systems.

Mine's done

That must be a daytime job... B-)

Same here (the bathroom's waiting for me... )

Some time ago there were a few enthusiastic reviews (including mine) of Assif Tsahar recordings in this thread, both as a leader and as a sideman. I've listened to some of them again, and to be honest I was quite disappointed by his playing this time. I found it lacking in substance and it sounded quite formulaic to me. Any opinions? The albums I listened to were Come Sunday and Rashied Ali's Deals, Ideas and Ideals. I've yet to listen to Open Systems and Ein Sof again.

Thanks, but let's wait a while and see if they're reacting to my e-mail.

I have Nothing to Declare; I like it, but it's been a while since I last played it. Will have to listen to it again.

Three Paul Bley albums: Solo (Justin Time 28), Changing Hands (Justin Time 40), and Sweet Time (Justin Time 56).

Yep, I did - no reply (yet).

Has anyone ever ordered directly from Justin Time Records? I placed an order in August and, apart from an order confirmation e-mail, I never heard or received anything from them.

I second that.

Well, there's the addition of "Core Collections" as described in earlier posts.

Yep, no index. I'm guessing it would have gotten too fat if they had included it, but I think it's a major omission and a wrong decision.

Please provide a link once that thread is there, for the non-JC-posters among us! JC Ask Anthony Braxton thread

There must be more posters who are regarding McMaster remasters as a lesser "evil" than RVGs...

I guess I'm being too cautious.

The current owners might see it as defamation. Oh, I don't know, maybe I'm being too negative and concerned; perhaps some of the American lawyer posters here can shed some light on this.

Jim, You got my full support, but don't you think you might get sued for that post?

Ditto, and good luck!

The T-Bone Walker was a CD-set. I had an eye on that one, but $333 is a bit too rich for me...

Thanks John. I think I'll order it. Anyone heard Barry Guy's latest outing on Intakt, Ithaca, with Marilyn Crispell and Paul Lytton?

Has anyone reviewed this Conrad Bauer/Peter Kowald/Günter Sommer album on Intakt here yet (I did a search, but it didn't turn up): . The title is Between Heaven And Earth. If not, opinions?

Several of the original albums have been reissued as mini-LP sleeve CDs by Universal Japan over the last couple of years, but the Mosaic has the early tracks (including the extra tracks that don't appear on the Japanese reissues) in the order they were recorded, i.e. in "recording chronology", which makes it more listenable for me than - for instance - the original Jazz in 3/4 Time album.
