I don't have much Shipp around, but The Multiplication Table is an all-time favorite. I might put it on next! I love the "Autumn Leaves".

Date? Looks to be pre-1964, or at least on the dot.

I'm no business person, but they seem to only buy a couple copies of CDs they ought to know they'll sell a load of.

Sounds like a blast. As fate would have it I listened to An Average Daze, from Bloodcount's Unwound last night and it just plastered the hugest smile on my face. Such awesome, inspired music. I live for the next recording and hope one is forthcoming! (Especially from these new bands which prrrrobably won't show up on ECM ...)

If it weren't just Monk. I think the days of Blue Note rereleasing music by John Hardee et al are long behind us.

I generally buy music in a very focused way (ie I'm familiar with the artists) but these are labels I have bought unfamiliar music from on reputation alone: FMP Hat Hut, specifically hatOLOGY Music & Arts erstwhile Family Vineyard clean feed Not Two

Yes, I was referring to Juba Lee. Full discussion here: Coral Rock was never on CD AFAIK. There is the original America LP and a Prestige reissue.

There is a bootleggy version available now but the legit versions remain the original and Japanese LP and CD reissues.

Chris Speed kills in Bloodcount, Endangered Blood and The Same a River Twice.

I have no doubt this makes a lot of people frothingly angry, but I can't be bothered to be bugged. Whatever. I would never pay money for this or listen to it but I appreciate the dedication to both the transcription/playing as well as the gag (or "concept").

PMs on Brotzmann/Bennink, Rara Avis, Schweizer/Bennink

Ran Blake Quartet - The Short Life of Barbara Monk (Soul Note) Perfect in every way.

Got around to ordering the new Coltrane and Giuffre live sets.

I'll do February.

I have a couple of the albums on LP and really dig them. Like Jim said, it's a tad slick in spots, but has enough depth and character to surmount.

Thanks. It's two feet away from me, I'm just lazy!

Yeah, those. Lacy only plays on a small bit and I'm not certain he even solos.

The Roach is pretty good, but comparable to other work of the period. Not essential.

It's not out yet.

Ooh, thanks. Always looking for some Russ Johnson.

I am definitely going for the first one. I might get the DKV down the road as it's inexplicably much less expensive than the earlier box that only had 2 more discs.

Two new Vandermark boxes: 9 Ways To Build A Bridge (6xCD) duos w/ McPhee, Fernandez, Kurzmann and Morris + two trios w/ Wooley & Lytton and Tilbury & Prévost Sound In Motion (5xCD) DKV Trío I think these are all 2014 recordings. Both are available for preorder at Catalytic ($55)

I found $10 copies of Charles Gayle's Abiding Variations and Berlin Movement on FMP. The seller has burned me twice before bit I guess it's worth a shot again. (They always refund for the ones "lost in the mail"...)

Shame. There's not nearly enough Ed Wilerson on record. There's a trio on YouTube with Tomeka and Scott Hesse that's fantastic.
