I'm sure it does sound better in person. And I actually liked the first record (without Berne-- not that that has anything to do with it) a fair bit, but I really did not get what he was going for with Hammered.

That was relatively quick.

I hope they bring it live. Their Clean Feed record is fucking weak.

Hurry your ass over to Amazon really quick to grab the Peter Kowald Discography box set for $25. 5 CDs and a full illustrated discography. It was $68 earlier this afternoon.

John Carter Quintet - Variations (Moers)

My copy of Music For Prancing has the following sticker: 1/88 Real Records IC, IA R. Solheim $5.49 I grabbed it exactly 20 years later a few blocks away for $6

Your loss! An early jazz purchase for me and still and all-time favorite.

Mine is on the way. Thanks, Chuck.

Ha!!

I figured this thread was created expressly to post the most obvious one of all:

Online they have some jazz stuff. Like Clifford said, they're hosing people (who deserve it).

Not that I can tell. I managed to find a way to buy it on the label's page last week but am now having trouble locating that section.

Two very solid reissues: Of course, Jonathan Horowich's long-awaited Tapscott release: http://www.amazon.com/Giant-Awakened-Horace-Tapscott-Quintet/dp/B00MVLLSGG/ref=pd_sim_sbs_m_2?ie=UTF8&refRID=1AGFB2E4YADNZBYR5KCB And a CD reissue of George Russell Presents: The Esoteric Circle with its original art: http://www.amazon.com/George-Russell-Presents-Esoteric-Circle/dp/B00MFXM0JY/ref=sr_1_1?s=music&ie=UTF8&qid=1411781803&sr=1-1&keywords=esoteric+circle

Dusty Groove is listing reissues of As Serious As Your Life and Morning Joy for October.

Almost certainly an Otoroku album forthcoming from that one! (as an aside, I sure hope a document from the 2014 Brotz/Parker/Drake tour shows up, too)

While I can't admit to having heard The Whammies-- and I'm sure I'll grab a couple of these down the line-- I will say that for whatever reason I find Ideal Bread much more commanding of my attention. Something about that dry, swinging, small group sound cuts right to the bone of Lacy's music to me. But maybe this is what I'm going out of my way to hear, as it seems like the Whammies set up is more reflective of the big sound of his Sextet.

Yep, I grabbed one for $8

I think that accusation is maybe a tad dastardly, but it does seem like Moran has taken leave of developing his music in favor of other pursuits. I suppose the world needs Billy Taylors, too. Which is maybe to say that I think at one time he had a very precise and exciting musical vision that seems to have been since abandoned.

Fred Anderson CDs: -Vintage Duets -Live at the Velvet Lounge (Kowald/Drake) -A Night at the Velvet Lounge/Live at the 'Made in Chicago' Festival Lennie Tristano Quartet - Unreleased Recordings 2xLP

I'm in the market for a legit CD of George Russell's Jazz Workshop but I see the reissue from this series replicates the shitty 80s cover? Why in God's name? The primary reason I want to replace the Lone Hill is the atrocious cover.

I don't feel like I would ever plop down for this new one, but it looks quite nice. The only Lloyd I have is Of Couse, Of Course which is very much worthwhile for any jazz fan.

Really? I've bought more than one Not Two title on Catalytic and paid about $3 shipping. All the other Not Two and TUM titles I have purchased were off Discogs, Amazon, or Ebay, most secondhand, some new. I never paid more than about $15 (generally much less) and never had trouble sourcing what I wanted.

Just checking on something. So music from this 1955 recording comprised the B side of the Atlantic LP. As far as getting a complete reel of this performance my options are thus, no?: 1) 1981 Atlantic 2xLP Unreleased Performances - 13 tracks 2) Mosaic Set - ?? tracks (Discogs list Art Taylor on Disc 1 tracks 1-10 and Disc 2-10; not sure if that is all sourced from the Sing Sing tapes) 3) Illegal Gambit CD - 18 tracks The Mosaic is on my long-term wish list but not feasible today. I am about to grab the old 2xLP but am more curious than anything what the story is here.

You hit the motherlode! The Quest is an experience like no other.

I only listened once. Haven't been in the mood to put it on again, but I liked it. Low key, but intense.
