If I ask nicely do you think they might run a London follow up with the same line-up? That's going to such a good few days. Enjoy! I particularly like how King Britt pops up in there. Someone I enjoyed a lot about 20 years ago but have lost touch with.

One of today's arrivals from Japan Dick Morrissey Quartet - Storm Warning! [Norma, Japan 1993] "licensed from Chris Morrissey" so hoping it's legit. Sounds really nice. Couldn't wait for Decca...

It's a favourite here. Try and listen to the one previous on Fresh Sound New Talent, it's the one the alerted me to him (apart from playing with Steve Coleman) and is very strong

Interchangeable from the off?

Oh no! I knew he was ill. The Stones have never meant much to me but I went to see them 5 years ago with my partner who loves them. Charlie was an absolute star, drumming for two hours+ and hardly seeming to break a sweat. Modtastic in his late 70s

Only on the Butcher so far. I often think when listening to improv like this that it's much better in the flesh. I must have hundreds of albums that sound like this in some way. I can see why the reviewer would score it highly maybe not me, today. It's very listenable, don't get me wrong. Trombone and percussionist are good and new to me. Three/Three and half stars, so far

Certainly your good deed for that day. Every time I listen to it I find more to enjoy from it

Yusef Lateef - The Centaur And The Phoenix [Riverside, 1965 RP]

Gato (and I know that's not right) Paul or Carla Bley? Brotz, every time and I say that as someone with lots of TB

Yusef Lateef - Eastern Sounds {Transatlantic, UK 1966 mono] this really is desert island

Crystal, wish I'd known earlier

Now that genuinely made me LOL, lovely idea on a few levels

Creative Arts Ensemble - One Step Out [Nimbus West/Outernational Sounds, 2018] 2x45rpm, evidently...

Ha! Roscoe or Anthony?

😂👍 There's at least one other Nimbus West reissue that's cut the same, Jesse someone. I think it's Outernational Sounds or similar name that does them like that

Just started Louise Erdrich - The Night Watchman Prompted by a jhoots post a while back

Has Matt Shipp upset him?

Ouch! But Stanko, only just Jarrett's American or European Quartet?

I found the coverage of that in the Sites Ra Chicago book fascinating as I'd not come across it previously. Or I had if Szwed covers it but many years ago and it was lost to me by now

Terrific band whatever Pitchfork are saying. Great live too, playing London in November Exactly. I couldn't agree more

Me too now. Streaming Disc 1. First impression is how much clearer the sound is compared to my 3CD version.

Saxophonist with Irreversible Entanglements, and more, but that's how I came across him

A good listen, thanks. Duly wishlisted. It reminded me in part of this which I really rate https://newatlantisrecords.bandcamp.com/album/ceremonies-out-of-the-air
