It does. The contrast between the Garbarek and Corea's Return to Forever choices makes that point eloquently. There was just too much good music in the catalogue at the time (and I'd the make a case for later too but that's another story).

Happy Birthday!! Thanks for all the great radio shows

A great listen, thanks. I know most of the music well but it's good to hear it together in the historical context.

I got the flyers too... Hermes delivered the Tubby, received an email notification about an hour in advance

LP set just arrived. Looks great almost too good to open 😁

I'm assuming they're shipping tomorrow which is even more wishful. I have got a Parcelforce card from today so maybe...

I should have listened to this. A fan of the Frequency, Amina, Here In Now and Crispell suggests some coincidence of taste. I had trouble tracking the Dawkins down in UK/Europe when I first became aware of it. This is my prompt to look again

Aha! Thanks for clarifying ( good to see someone else keeps an excel catalogue) I ordered the Pure Pleasure this morning prompted by your post, so thank you. I'd been meaning to for ages, enough of streaming it I need to hold it

And my favourite artist is evidently The Cinematic Orchestra. I like them a lot certainly but not enough to have bought the album I've streamed the most this year...it's good tube commute music. Mind you, it was a clever ploy as I couldn't resist looking who was in the top five.

I can't find any reference to an Outernational Sounds reissue of the Adele Sebastian, either on Discogs or their own site. Is it recent?

Since my initial post, I've had a very interesting chat with the guy behind Outernational in which he told me the lengths to which he'd gone to collaborate with Tom Albach about the reissue of Jesse Sharps reissue. I imagine his subsequent reissues have followed on in the same vein.

On Spotify in the UK. Well worth a listen

Now that looks really interesting. Not cheap over here but it is Xmas soon...present to selve? Thanks for posting it

Happy Birthday listening!

You mean there's music performed outside London?! Oto must have been yesterday I'd be at many of them. Yes, that line up could finish at any point given past relationships involved

That box set is three CDs too long for me. I'm missing tomorrow at Oto, wish I wasn't.

Couldn't agree more. I took a punt on it as my intro to him and it's that and more I'd say. Great release. I have that 'Message from the Tribe' compilation too. It needs to come out again. Over here, Pure Pleasure have been reissuing some Tribe affiliated LPs recently with the cooperation of Harrison, Ranelin and others which points to the continued currency of the music to today's audience, I'd suggest.

I'm trying to hear KV riffing away on his bari whilst Butcher plays some bar walking tenor. It's not happening...

New Couple In Spirit album in the works which can only be a good thing https://discus-music.co.uk/catalogue-mobile/dis90-241-detail

It was 'OneWorld' for me, whilst still at school. Instrumental, along with The Clash and some others, in saving me from Heavy Metal Playing this for the first time and enjoying it very much indeed

This is a coincidence as I've been thinking about the Garrett List Horo 'American Images' this weekend. Happened across it's existence whilst looking into his 'Your Own Self'. It looks very intriguing, anyone know it?

Some new Evan Parker https://vortexjazzclub.bandcamp.com/album/work-in-progress And a chance to support a great venue

Some new EP and an opportunity to support a good cause https://vortexjazzclub.bandcamp.com/album/work-in-progress

Thanks. I might have a look for that Harris
