Thanks John, I was hoping for your take when I asked the question. I've since found it on Tidal which will probably suffice A warmed heart is never a bad thing

I have a number of live Tolliver quartet dates and I'm thinking this is another of much the same so not entirely essential. Anyone like to suggest otherwise, I'm open to persuasion as Joan said

Tomin - A Willed And Conscious Balance [International Anthem, USA 2024] One of two very impressive albums released this year by Tomin. A young talent to watch on the evidence so far

Mion UK do similar sometimes, never figured out why unless for some reason they don't want to sell them just at the moment and it's easier than de-listing.

The Monette Sudler reissue did well I think and also popped up on Instagram a fair bit, that's how I came across it. I suspect Ken McIntyre's Steeplechases might cross over too. But generally I agree the catalogue isn't necessarily for the kids.

Not the first spin by any means, been digging in since it arrived just not posted it. As for Henderson's best Milestone album, that tends to be whichever I'm listening to at the time 😃 And yes that MJQ is lovely, a lot of them are

Liking the new in situ photos Now onto: Byard Lancaster - Funny Funky Rib Crib [Palm/Souffle Continu, France 2024] courtesy of a very generous fellow board member

Joe Henderson - Power To The People [Milestone, USA 1972 RE] Right now this is sounding to me like Joe's best album Picked up in a new to me record shop yesterday, always good to find another site to feed the hobby/habit/addiction...

That Strata East band played London about 10 years ago and were predictably great. Aja Monet is a real talent to my ears

I liked those Apfelbaum albums at the time, may still have one on the shelves to play

Joe Lee Wilson lived in the UK

That's a very special album that I should dig out again for a listen

Anthony Blunt Guy Burgess Kim Philby

Dave Grohl Hole Melissa Auf der Maur

Just bought a UK pressing of 'Nuts about...' off the back of this discussion. Not sure why I haven't investigated Most before as I have a weakness for flute in Jazz

Reckon they got the second letter wrong...

Interesting line up. I enjoy the Floridis albums in my collection

My first listen, casting from Tidal. I can actually hear both sides of the bass debate. It is audible, less so in the full on quartet passages but very definitely when it breaks down to a piano trio. And yes, it is a bit boomy but that doesn't detract too much for me, I'd rather it that way than thin or non-existent. Overall I'd say its SQ is one of the better recently discovered live recordings. The music itself is pretty spectacular. I'll be buying this.

Exactly, money well spent

£10.01 I didn't know I was going to spend too

I was due to but have had to pass on my ticket.

I ordered the new McPhee book from them yesterday. Pricey but an import

Yeah, there's a real "mine is rarer than yours" pissing contest going on, it's laughable most of the time. Only a small handful add interesting text about the recordings
