That takes me back...

Latest release in the post

Double Image - In Lands I Never Saw [Celestial Harmonies, 1986]

Thanks, just found it on BC, I shall stream it first and then probably buy it

That looks very interesting

👍😄 Pleased to hear you're rating it

I just bought my first Joe Lee Wilson, 'Shout For Trane' and I'm mighty impressed. Just learnt that he moved to the UK for a good part of his latter career. Things I know now that I wish I'd known then...

Listening to this, pretty astonishing. Thanks for posting it

Noble as 'funky drummer' on more than one occasion.

It was astounding Steve. Great to see Herr B back at Oto. There's nothing like THAT sound. Yes he's slowed down, of course he has but that makes the peaks even greater and "ballad and blues" Brotzmann is very moving. But I always think the key to listening to him play is to understand it's not about him it's about the collective sound and my were the other three contributing at a high level tonight. I'm a huge fan of of Adasiewicz in every context but his contributions tonight we're so telling. Gig for the ages and I thought the first time I saw this quartet was very special. This was a privilege.

Tomorrow - Brotzmann, Edwards, Noble, Adasiewicsz @ Café Oto

You're really giving me itchy purchase finger with these Owls 😀

👍

Thanks again. I'll definitely investigate further. I love vibes so not too sure why Friedman has largely passed me by Just realised the Tidal one is not 'Of The Wind's Eye' but 'Shades Of Change' with Geri Allen which is a pretty good thing as it stands

Thanks, just found it on Tidal so will try before I buy

That looks interesting. I have a Double Image album and the one with Chet but no more Friedman, worth investigating?

That's a masterpiece, beautiful. It's difficult to go wrong with Togashi though Playing here: Joe Chambers - Samba de Maracatu, first listen and the production seems really boomy. Music is arresting

Oh yes of course, my clue is in the thread title 🙂

Idiosyncratic brilliance...

👍🏼 That's another good Hampel. How are you finding it? And those Gibbs Dreams are special too

That looks interesting, thanks for posting. I'd have liked a complete set covering those releases more though

No major warping issues on any of my recent purchases of new issues except one that came the furthest, from Australia. Biggest warp I'd ever seen, looked horrible when played, sounded OK but I wasn't keeping it. Label replaced it immediately. I'm with Sidewinder, if it effects the sound or just looks too much of a wave it goes back. A very slight hardly noticeable warp survives.

The last great album Van made as far as I'm concerned, right up there with his best

Not sure the Captain was ever striving for literal descriptors 😄
