  1. Joe Morello - It's About Time [RCA Victor, UK 1962, mono] Lovely listen, such a good drummer
  2. I really need to find some time to listen to more Reggae. I see your posts and think "Oh Yes, that looks well worth investigating". Too much Jazz, need to break out again
  3. We live in hope, we have to
  4. Cecil Taylor - Unit Structures [Blue Note, 1966, mono] more modernism but definitely of a different ilk
  5. and yet more European Modernism. I've never known a thread to mushroom quite so much or is it just in my listening life?
  6. I'm listening to this now. Very interesting and by the looks of Discogs very difficult to find
  7. Sounds like a good trip. Really pleased you enjoyed the Tynt ale (brewed at the monastery where my late uncle spent his life). That Dikker has a great cover.
  8. Always excited by the prospect of new Threadgill music. Scant details here but certainly the download looks imminent which will do me just fine https://henrythreadgill.bandcamp.com/album/poof?from=fanpub_fnb I've not seen anything from Pi Recordings yet
  9. Pleased to hear that it's good as I also ordered a copy for much the same reasons. Mind you, Discogs seller is being very slow so whether it will turn up is a different matter
  10. Get pouring... On a completely different tack, I saw this exhibition yesterday https://designmuseum.org/exhibitions/charlotte-perriand-the-modern-life Very interesting, great design and some lovely chairs. Perhaps a bit early for your tastes?
  11. Nor in the UK. 'prefab' is our shortening of prefabricated (maybe yours too?), most commonly used for cheap WW2 era housing to replace bomb damaged housing. So a nonsense phrase as far as I know
  12. Yes, I have a Dorothy Ashby that fits that description but this Harriott is definitely superior It was the availability of the ingredients that was worrying me rather than the mixer's skills. I know nothing about 1950's East German wine...
  13. Stop it! Edit to add: the Gibbs/Burton looks very tempting
  14. Ronnie Scott & The Band - Live At Ronnie Scott's [CBS, 1968] But what is the white powder she's adding to them?
  15. Noted, and purchased. Best band name ever...
  16. C86, those were the days. Loved that scene. 'Swoon' is well worth hearing if you can. Mind you it's a long time since I've played it
  17. Just looked that up, some interesting names involved
  18. so far, so Brubeck and Bossa big band. I imagine @Teasing the Korean in a mid-20th century East German pad, Bauhaus inspired naturally. But would the cocktails be any good?
  19. Swoon was an absolute masterpiece, still remember buying it with much excitement. Set the stall out early for the genius that is Paddy McAloon You're Bloody well right with that one Complete classic from the cover to the last note
  20. Leading Reading FC out of the Championship. Unlikely
  21. Joe Harriott Quintet - Free Form [Jazzland, 1961, mono] Thanks to @sidewinder for the nudge, made it across the Atlantic surprisingly swiftly. Sounding lovely
  22. Glad to be of service (maybe). Sounds good! I should listen to it...
  23. XT - Deorlaf [OtoRoku] Fataka was a good label but I haven't heard that one
  24. You did. I was too lazy to check all the thread It does look interesting
