I'm assuming the title refers to his bullshit.

May already be too late (always is), but there's a $54.99 Don Pullen Select at DG. This is a seriously good box set. http://www.dustygroove.com/item/678287 There's also a Dexter Gordon at the same price. I know someone from JazzLoft posts here from time to time. I am seriously considering this, but am wondering if the promos are CDs only, or if there's art. Makes or breaks the deal for me.

Randy Weston/Billy Harper - The a Roots of the Blues is out on Universal Jazz France. Hopefully they'll put out Ran Blake's Chris Connor album as their next jazz release. Only 1 at a time, heaven forbid...

Sounds cool. I love Angelica Sanchez.

I listened to A Round Goal. It's fun.

Looks worth it for the Bradford disc alone.

By and large (...) a trustworthy panel. Makes me think, though, of an anecdote Steve Lehman shared on the 5049 podcast. He was a freshman at Wesleyan and was talking to Braxton about his future plans. He said he'd like to play like Jackie McLean and cut an album with a few standards, a few free originals, etc. Braxton said "Great! Then what?"

That's a Threadgill I can get behind.

As far as my .002 goes, the Threadgill is very nice, but not necessarily essential. I dunno ... between the availability of the other About Times, the Mosaic, the Black Saint box, etc. I don't see this fitting your niche of one-of-a-kind, long-lost albums.

I like these ones. I, for one, have never seen one that wasn't a promo.

There is a Joe McPhee/Evan Parker duo LP upcoming Rune Grammaphone.

I was so enjoying reading accounts of his late resurgence. I'm glad he got his flowers while he was here. RIP.

Dusty Groove is listing a CD reissue of the ESP date. Not sure if it's from ESP themselves or what.

Into Somethin' is a great record, don't sleep on it.

I mentioned it upthread: Ingrid Laubrock, Ralph Alessi, Tom Rainey, Kris Davis http://www.skirlrecords.com

If it's been re-pressed by Emanem, then it should show up elsewhere.

It'd be nice to see downloads though I admit I would have no interest in them. But it seems thorny, rightswise, and it furthermore seems preferable to make the entire catalogue available from 1976 on, which would be a massive undertaking for such a small operation.

JD Allen's Matador & The Bull was recorded in Feb. 2012 and came out in June or July. I did a double take on that one.

Agreed, it wouldn't be huge: Trickles, Troubles, The Condor, The Cry, Vespers, Revenue ... I think that's it-- 7 discs.

Steve Lacy Horo box next, right?

Seriously! That's my favorite Ayler, great to see the pictures.

Von Freeman's wonderful The Great Divide has just been reissued on vinyl by Premonition (and remastered for the medium, fwiw): http://www.dustygroove.com/item/670454 (better cover, too). There's also this: Joe McPhee - Nation Time: The Complete Recordings (4xCD) http://www.dustygroove.com/item/675969 ???

It's almost certainly an LP rip. And that's likely the source of the problem, too. Frankly, I've never noticed it, but I've only listened to it on my stereo. Great records both; I tend to forget about them because I mostly spin 80s/90s Lacy albums.

Looks like a dream, especially the Boeren All-Ellington group.

I am several volumes behind on the Bootleg Series but I look forward to hearing this. Put me in the pro 69-74 Dylan camp, I love those records.
