Family have announced his death through the GoFundMe page that had been supporting his health costs recently, aged 84 Not a Jazz musician by any means but a very influential musician nonetheless that has made some important recordings. A new Hassell album was always an event in my household. It will be a day of listening to them for me.

My thought exactly. I once saw Evan P with a copy at the Vortex, nearly mugged him

Yes, the twofer sounds better to my ears (it's cheaper too). Some Discogs comments mention copies being pressed side 1 & 4 and 2 & 3, mixing up the sessions but mine's standard

Well said

Switched to to the same music on this Punchier sound, better bass presence, denser

Sam rivers - Dimensions & Extensions [Blue Note, 1986] the DMM release, sounds OK but a bit thin. Would like to hear a Tone Poet of it. The music is great.

Agood reissue of the Ashby has been needed. Off to check how much on the expensive side they are... Edit to add: hmm...£70, that expensive

That's something you would think Strut might have thought to do

I thought Komeda was a pianist. Zbigniew Namyslowski is the alto sax player on 'Astigmatic' surely?

Just comatose after watching England play

Boris and The Flag Shaggers - Fuckin' Up who'd have thought they'd do a Neil Young cover Geert Wilders and The Freedom Party - Oranges Are Lemons

I often wonder how the so-called non-mainstream media has the resources to carry out all the investigations that they apparently do, so successfully. Happy to be enlightened.

such a great album, thanks to Jazzcorner for posting it in another thread

Narcissus & The Conspiracy Theorists - 'It Always Happens To Me'

How is the Salah Ragab?

Good old Gilles P

Shirly Scott Trio - Great Scott!! [His Masters Voice, UK 1964 mono] not as pictured

That footage is chilling

Andrew Hill - So In Love [Warwick, Japan, 1976 RP] preceded by Andrew Hill - Hommage [East Wind, 1975]

Horace Tapscott - Tapscott Sessions vol.2 [Nimbus West, 1982]

Bob Moses - Visit With The Great Spirit [Gramavision, 1984]

Boris Johnson Matt Hancock Gina Coladangelo - oops

Interesting. Pure Pleasure haven't done Blue Note before, I don't think. Not that that disqualifies them from doing so. One label that did was WallenBink who released the expanded Pearson's 'I don't Care Who Knows It' although that appeared to be a collaboration with BN I could imagine Gearbox having a try at Hill not least as I know the owner is a massive BN fan and collector.
