Was looking forward to this but UK release is now delayed

BFT 210. Thanks to @tkeith for the ID and @Pim for putting it on the BFT in the first place. Great to be reminded that I had it!

Damn! I knew I knew that and even said I could probably pull it off my shelves, and I can. Must listen to it

Just a tad perhaps

Big John Patton - Got A Good Thing Goin' [Blue Note, 1966, mono] possibly "the greatest human artistic endeavour of all time." @Rabshakeh It's sounding mighty fine on first spin

Donald Byrd - I'm Tryin' To Get Home [Blue Note, 1965 NY stereo] the choir seems to annoy a lot of online commentary, not me

Thanks

I've been wondering with that one for a while, is it any good? Thomas and Musson seem an interesting combination

This is fantastic, thanks for posting. I see Mr Bongo have done a reissue, they do good reissues.

And now disc 3 of Jazz Crusaders Mosaic

We don't see Paul rogers here very often at all. I've only seen him 2 or 3 times myself. Long time resident of France. That Dunmall/Rogers/Norton trio on CIMP! I envy you seeing them live

By this stage in his career he may well not see the point of or even enjoy making any more recordings.

Jazz Messengers or Jazz Crusaders?

Disc 2.

Same in London over a similar, maybe slightly longer, timeframe. And most of the musicians have even less visibility than the NYC cohort

Yes, it's a very fine album, successfully looking backwards and forwards at the same time. Such great players Now on my first listen to this new arrival, disc.1

And now

A morning with Wadada Leo Smith Disc 1, duets with Milford Graves. Masters at work before... Disc 3. solo

Friedholm Schönfeld - s/t [Amiga, GDR 1978] First listen, interesting

Me too now, just because I was intrigued by the title

I accept all responsibility...looking forward to its arrival

interesting as I have a copy of it in my Discogs cart at the moment...and it's payday tomorrow.

Of interest to resident BH fans perhaps

Yes, I read your blog about it, thanks. I'd discovered Jefferson through the fabulous Choir album reissued by Sam Records so was looking for others by him. BH's presence sealed the deal on this one. Nice session, LP's a bit battered but we'll get along together I think. I have that Lake somewhere too, many moons since I've had it on the TT though

Indeed, and a great balm for the troubles of the world they are too. I need to dive into the pool more often. I particularly like his recordings with Larry Young whoever's the leader.
