RIP John saw him a couple of times, once here in Brisbane circa 78 then Sydney early 80s

The Revenant book discography notes "Don Cherry's presence on this recording casts some doubt on whether it in fact was made during the group's Nov. engagement". Late Oct - early Nov: "Without Don Cherry, Ayler returned to Copenhagen for an engagement that may have been a full week or more, definitely beginning after Oct. 18" The Lord Discography extract (see above) still lists that date also see below from AA UK site https://www.ayler.co.uk/html/liveineurope.html note that Holy Spirits (#3) is actually Vibrations [LP cover of Philology W 88 Click image for large version.] [LP cover of Relyable 001 Click image for large version.] discography [CD cover of Landscape 902 Click image for large version.] ALBERT AYLER LIVE IN EUROPE 1964 - 1966 Tracks 1.

Extract from Bruce Gallanter's DMG newsletter, describing the Sun Ra performance & amazingly Marshall Allen still conducting & playing at 100!! The final set on the last night of Vision Fest 2024 was appropriately Marshall Allen & the Sun Ra Arkestra. It seems hard to believe but it is true, Marshall Allen turned 100 last month in May or 2024. Not many humans have been around for an entire century, especially someone special like Marshall Allen who still plays alto sax unlike anyone else on this planet as well as an EVI (electronic valve instrument), leads the Arkestra which has been going on for nearly 70 years. This is an Arkestra which plays music drawn from the history of jazz as well as space (rock) music from another world! I’ve heard the Sun Arkestra play live maybe 50 times since my first encounter at the Five Spot in 1973 and they’ve continued to take their audiences with them on a journey to Other Worlds. The current band has around 17 members with a number of older members like Michael Ray, Vincent Chancey and Knoel Scott. The band still plays a number of Sun Ra originals, a number of which I’ve heard many times in the past yet each one still sounds relevant today. Like many older big bands from the mid last century, this band loves to play those repeating riffs which are most hypnotic. Many of these riffs/melodies sound familiar whether I can place them or not. Original Sun Ra saxists, John Gilmore & Marshall Allen, are known for being the first to play those out/jazz, multiphonic, squeaks, squawks and blast sax sounds in the mid-to-late 1950’s, which influenced the likes of John Coltrane, which helps to lead to beginning of “Free Jazz” and freeing the tradition to experiment with sounds of the future. Check out Mr. Allen as he still curves his hand to get those sax sounds which few others can play in the same way. One of those riffs that the Arkestra plays is closer to a Space/Rock jam that we might’ve heard from the Planet Gong (band). Most of the members of the band got a chance to solo and each one shined like a diamond in the rough. They did one Latin sounding song which reminded me of a cha cha yet it still felt right as a part of this set. One of the old Sun Ra songs that they played is called “Angels and Demons at Play” and it still sounds cosmic so many years later. Besides looking like an ancient Goddess/Space/Princess, Tara Middleton was featured and sang one song with stellar dust surrounding it. One of the last pieces I heard before I had to split to catch the last train was a heartfelt Chicago blues song, with soulful sax solos and a Sun Ra-like synth solo from a fine unnamed keyboardist. I was so glad to be “Traveling the Spaceways” with the current Sun Ra Arkestra, more than 50 years after I first heard them live in 1973. This was the perfect way to close Vision Fest 29!

bought a lot of those at the full price back when but just ordered a few more at this price ie two Aylers, AEC (Spiritual), Duke Pearson & Feather presents George Wallington Highly recommend the Konitz Storyville 2CD set - contains the three LPs plus extra material - absolute bargain at this price https://www.dustygroove.com/item/948926/Lee-Konitz:Lee-Konitz-At-Storyville-At-Harvard-Square-Konitz-Japanese-paper-sleeve-edition?sf=lee+konitz&incl_oos=1&incl_cs=1&kwfilter=lee+konitz&sort_order=artist

Irene's duos with Bennink, Cyrille, Favre, Crispell, Kowald & Moholo were superb & Les Diaboliques trio with Joelle Leandre & Maggie Nichols was a fav. Early material with the Manfred Schoof Orchestra & later the LJCO saw her in a larger context. She even played with Henry Cow in the late 70s RIP Irene, will miss you

Nimbus West has just added a second Tapscott/PAPA download (only) https://www.nimbuswestrecords.com/shop-5/p/pan-afrikan-peoples-arkestra-the-lost-reel Pan Afrikan Peoples Arkestra - Live at Century City Playhouse “THE LOST REEL” Recorded September 9th, 1979. Century City Playhouse “The Lost Reel ” was discovered while going thru reels for the IUCC series, two tracks spliced onto a single reel and left unlabelled.. If you’ve heard the 3LP set that documents the “full concert” then you know that this was a special evening, one of the most powerful and well-recorded live shows in the entire history of the Arkestra! “Crepuscule with Nellie” and “Nation Rising” are equal to anything on the 3LP set, from delicate to raging these 21 minutes act as a sort of seventh side to the legendary 3LP set. Essential! PAN AFRIKAN PEOPLES ARKESTRA “THE LOST REEL” 1.) Crepuscule with Nellie (5:16) 2.) Nation Rising (16:39) recorded by Bruce Bidlack produced by Tom Albach

I have received downloads from a few LP only labels where download wasn't an option but they were happy to send me the digital files but admittedly I had originally purchased the LP versions - I contacted the label directly & they were obliging

I picked it up primarily for the 4 discs from the Australian leg of the tour - the box was relatively cheap here considering it was a 36CD set

most are longer whilst a couple are shorter, "Verse" significantly West 22nd St: mst 04:46, alt 05:48 Aquarian Moon: mst 07:44, alt 10:50 Bouquet: mst 08:10, alt 08:16 Rojo: mst 06:04, alt 06:47 Una Muy Bonita: mst 06:29, alt 06:18 Black Circle: mst 06:57, alt 07:43 Verse: mst 09:30, alt 05:57

cheers

Interesting thread - thanks for the info, especially TKK My valve amp doesn't have a mono button so I'll try the Y cable option out of interest Just a question regarding use of the Y cable (RCA splitter cable) - It doesn't matter which socket (back of amplifier) you plug the cable into ie left or right & will only one speaker function?

Looks like it's all happening - just got this email from Nimbus West - the whole subscription set will be on its way soon https://www.nimbuswestrecords.com/shop-5 The final 3 releases are now on the site with a number of new LPs (Nate Morgan, Sabir Mateen & Aubrey Hart) plus an unreleased Tapscott solo album (download only) from '82 (Mothership) - got me thinking of Parliament & Larry Young Nimbus West Records Quality Albums Since 1978 Hello, We’re currently preparing the final discs of the IUCC series and soon your subscription will be ready to ship.
