HAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA no. But Creole Gardens is fantastic. I listened earlier this week. Will need to grab the Brice you showed. And erwbol, the Braxton is top notch! Great Gerry Hemingway on there, and I love Brax's notes.

Can't wait to pick up Steve Lacy's Shots.

Me too. But not in £!

Per Arts For Art. RIP.

Pre-order? I haven't been able to find it currently in stock anywhere.

I've always wanted to upgrade my Jazz Abstractions to a standalone Japanese issue. Such a great album and wonderful cover in a sleeve that just looks like crap. Not to mention it's paired with a pretty useless record.

Well the 12xCD Duets box is currently available for $85, which seems quite reasonable to me.

You've convinced me to pick it up. Also am a diehard Midwesterner who's homesick so that sways me too!

Though it resembles the CDs from the box, this one is not part of it. It was recorded a month earlier. I purchased a copy from Dusty Groove for $30 but was too late.. someone else had grabbed it. Curses. I've never seen it offered for less than $100.

Few can caress a tune like Michael Moore.

All power to them, but still can't get with dls. I am still holding out for the actual box in this lifetime, but have started grabbing the individual discs.

Thanks Allen. Thought-provoking as always. I agree that we haven't fully dealt with this sort of post-historical condition/milieu, in jazz or in other areas.

Fantastic news on many fronts, one of which is more Tomeka on record.

You're correct. I bought the Lou Donaldson one. I like these albums enough to want to hear them sometimes, but not enough to shell out for OOP Japanese CDs or the OOP Mosaic. I have seen a few others that look tempting, but I don't plan on getting any more. For one thing, the music is just there in a big mass which makes it difficult to sort out what you're listening to; plus the contents are misidentified in the "notes". Beyond the ethical concerns, this is what makes these types of sets a poor experience in my book.

Yes, I got it from Mars yesterday at a Harrison Bankhead concert put on by Lazaro Vega. Thanks. I was aware of the group and have been waiting for something to come out.

Is that Blue Lights disc a new one?

I saw them but once in '02. It was indeed a great show. Love them to pieces.

I missed a cheap copy once. It's on the shortlist for my I-swear-it'll-happen-one-day $150 Emanem order.

Finally managed to catch it in stock at DG. I think MD lists it as OOP over at the label.

Carter/Bradford - No U Turn Parker/Guy/Lytton - At The Vortex

Looks good. I didn't see a link to an actual Kickstarter. Not up yet?

Steve said he liked it but most didn't. I honestly haven't been through it enough to form an opinion.

YEAH. Good for you, xybert! I'm not even a Steve Coleman fan -- I'm not really familiar with his music -- but I'm glad that you're sticking up for him!!! Sheesh, a simple article about Steve Coleman -- and suddenly there's a big storm of HATE -- about the artist and the writer. Good grief, people! To be fair, I don't think anyone is hating on Steve Coleman. I don't see that anywhere. As for the writer: broken clock, etc.
