They're currently gigging with Vijay Iyer, so hopefully we'll see that on record down the road.

Jackie McLean - Jacknife (Blue Note) The High Frequency session. Jackie with DeJohnette is sensational. A damn shame they didn't record together more.

Trio 3 + Jason Moran is forthcoming on Intakt.

Oliver Lake - Gallery (Grammavision) with Geri Allen, Fred Hopkins & Pheeron AkLaff

Earlier today: John Surman & Jack DeJohnette - The Amazing Adventures of Simon Simon (ECM) John Surman - Private City (ECM) I'm a sucker for those 80s synthy ECMs on a rainy day.

Yeah, a distinction must certainly be made between asking prices and auction prices. Regarding the latter, the Willisau & Santa Cruz Braxtons are still hitting the $75-120 mark on ebay.

I have noticed that Chicago record stores resell Chicago albums at deliriously low prices.

As a heads up, Dusty Groove has an LP copy for $1.99 at the moment.

I put this on today as well. Very nice.

I like the list of Chicago jazz. Did you make that, too?

I don't know for sure either, but my hunch in that they are the real deal. Some titles are not available, which I don't think would be the case if they were on-demand. I also once read a comment from Bonandrini where he said it was a misnomer that the CD catalogue as a whole was ever out of print, just poorly circulated.

Paul Lytton/Paul Lovens

Never mind, that was JazzLoft who don't seem to have it anymore. Looks like $19.95 + $26.95 shipping at Squidco. Oof :/

Not sure what the rate to Australia is at Squidco, but they had it for $14.95USD.

That's what got me thinking in that direction.

The trio with Maneri & Ban sounds wonderful. Shades of the ECMs with Phillips & Bley?

Wayne Shorter - Etc. from 1965 w/ Herbie, Cecil McBee, Joe Chambers. Oops, missed this on the first page. At least it's still true all these years later.

Or just wishful thinking.

I know less about jazz, but yes, in my experience buying Beatles records German pressings are top of the line.

I'll check it out. I love PYHT.

No.

Billy Higgins & Butch Warren on Blue Note is the classic pairing, but when Billy played with Ornette he really took on new dimensions. I'll always enjoy him most in that context.

It's a quintet session from 1962 with Evans, Zoot Sims, Jim Hall, Ron Carter, and Philly Joe Jones. It was first issued as a Japanese LP. It's been issued in the U.S. on CD as Loose Blues. Oh, that's a nice sleeve! I never saw that one before. Same artist who did 'Matador'. MG The actual cover is a somewhat lighter shade of green than the color in the image I posted. I figured it was that stuff. Thanks.

Jimmy Lyons Quintet - We Sneezawee (Black Saint) Stanley Crouch's notes are completely dickheaded, about how the avant grade lacks masterful instrumentalists, and how the inept cloak themselves in made-up concepts & theories. Classic example of extrapolating one's own experiences to the whole?

What's on that one, Paul? The Bill Evans, that is.
