In that case I'm interested to know your impressions (no pun intended). I saw Brandee Younger Trio recently, it was excellent

No other reason than "new kid on the block" on a very FJB label, releasing a couple of albums with name band members, as I saw it. Just the sort of player I'd look to them to introduce me to. Are you suggesting nefarious motivations?

Is that a tribute to Alice and John? Asking as he's booked to do one in London. I'm unsure about it

I watched a stream from the VV, I think, during Covid of that trio with Lovano and Frisell. It was excellent and very definitely a tribute to their work with Motian Zoh Amba is interesting, I'm not completely convinced by the one album I have by her

Cassie Kinoshi Mama Cass Philip Glass (with a northern English accent)

Another new one from Sorey, on Pi, quartet playing standards amongst others. Following in Braxton's footsteps? https://tyshawn-sorey.bandcamp.com/album/the-off-off-broadway-guide-to-synergism?from=fanpub_fb

That's a steal

That FS selection left me a bit cool I have to say, all a bit predictable. Not a great Futterman and and have more Crispell releases than I have time to listen to. Hal Russell is always worth a listen though. I bought 'Substantial Myths' for Gordoa who impressed me elsewhere. I wasn't overwhelmed by it I have to say. Maybe requires another listen. I find myself increasingly thinking that I now react to improv best heard live as over the years I have amassed so many recordings that few of the new ones break much new ground.

Andrrew Cyrille/Peter Brotzmann - Andrew Cyrille Meets Brotzmann in Berlin 1982 [FMP, Germany 1983] two masters at work

You both have an enviable amount of clear surface space and no clutter

I listened to it yesterday, really interesting. Must have been great to see it live

Jimetta Rose & Voices Of Creation - How Good It Is Joyous and uplifting, can't stop listening to this

Well, they have certainly been "lost" to general availability and consumption for decades. That's certain, hence the excitement here now that we have "found" them. I'm not sure "lost" in this context ever necessarily means misplaced or hidden, does it? It can do in some instances but not all.

Grover Washington Jr. - Winelight First listen in decades, really enjoying it both nostalgically but also in the here and now

Blissed out. I have a soft spot for that one

Yes, not overwhelming but quietly insistent. Nice groove to some of it and the Jaimie track is special.

Jason Holder Liz Truss St. Jude the Apostle

KVL - Volume 1 [Astral Spirits/Monofonus/Spacetone, 2019]

Yes I was thinking the same when listening to it. Yusef Lateef - Into Something [New Jazz, mono]

Rashied Ali/Frank Lowe - Duo Exchange, Complete Sessions [Survival Records, 2020]

No, different David Lee. Bass and cello, on this LP.

And the second Anteloper was better than the first too, I think. She was going somewhere good, so sad

Sonny Simmons - Rumsuma [Contemporary, 1970] Bill Lee - Pick A Number [Onari, Canada 1979]

Yes, there's an element of that as I was able to put the money towards a few big ticket titles I'd hankered after for sometime. 100 out, 5 in! I'm not sure it's near "very refined" yet, there's still 1750+ of them...

no, a very nice man came from the shop and collected them, on his bike! Atlantis.
