J.A.W.

Playing now, this interesting reissue:

"Mighty Moe & Joe" is on Hank Mobley (Blue Note 1568), with Bill Hardman (trumpet), Curtis Porter (alto and tenor saxophone), Sonny Clark (piano), Paul Chambers (bass), and Art Taylor (drums).

Got this one today: Frode Gjerstad Trio with Peter Brötzmann - Sharp Knives Cut Deeper - Splasc(h) and it's absolutely !

Hey, my version of the Funny Rat thread is only 23 pages long! This might be Jim Dye's work... That depends on your board settings. I use default (I never adjusted anything but the time), and it's on page 62 right now. ubu I didn't adjust anything but the time either, and this thread is now on page 24 on my computer...

Makes me wonder what you were posting The mystery deepens...

The board's extremely slooooow at the moment...

I've been listening to this one (again): Roscoe Mitchell - L-R-G/The Maze/S II Examples - Nessa NCD-14 The first two tracks are , but I'm less enthusiastic about the last track. Nevertheless, a very interesting album. Recommended.

In my opinion Katanga is by far the best album collected in the Amy Select; nothing else in the set comes close.

Tardi?

The Queen of Sheba, but my shrink had problems with that...

I have and love the Japanese DSD-remastered CD and sold all other versions. I don't have a favorite tune, I like the album as a whole.

The album is even better than I remembered. Highly recommended

Ah yes, the Derek Taylor pre-release review. Sounds good to me - maybe with the exception of Drake's chant on the closing track. There were a few DT posts about this set on JC too (he's a regular poster over there).

there was a not so favourable review posted somewhere on this board I believe That's strange, it hasn't even been released yet.

For those interested: the Fred Anderson / Hamid Drake Thrill Jockey set Back Together Again can be pre-ordered from CDUniverse for only $11.19. The set includes a CD-ROM of documentary footage.

I don't have much to add to Late's post, except that I'm not too fond of the Candid recordings; like Late indicates, Shepp doesn't sound "right", and it spoils the music for me, in spite of Lacy and Neidlinger - it even made me sell my Japanese Candids...

This is wonderful stuff: Horace Tapscott - The Tapscott Sessions, Vol.10 - Nimbus West

All this talk about CT... What do you guys see in him, I wonder... (Now listening to )

That'd be nice... It's still not here. Did you happen to see the postman nick it, errr... "pick it up"? I'd like his full name and address, please

Helen Merrill CDs at HMV Japan. Beware: HMV Japan's shipping charges are astronomical.

Why don't you ask him; if it's not too time-consuming, he'll probably mail you a list.

Dusty Groove's prices are much higher than Hiroshi's. Unless direct import from Japan is not an option, Hiroshi would be the best choice in my opinion. Here's his website. He can supply every jazz LP and CD that's currently available in Japan, though it might not be listed on his site.

Including shipping? That would be Hiroshi Tanno: hiroshi@earlyrecords.com.

Why am I not surprised... (sigh) Couldn't agree more.

Here it is. It's not mine either, I didn't get it yet.
