A touching tribute https://thebluemoment.com/2018/04/06/cecil-taylor-himself/

and only in my collection because you sang about it some time ago. Thanks

Thank you Mr.Taylor. May you rest in peace. You have left us a monumental legacy.

I've often wondered why Evan Parker hasn't played with Roscoe Mitchell on any of Mitchell's visits to London over the last few years. Always seemed a tantalising proposition

I have that somewhere, buried in a cupboard. I should dig it out, thanks for the reminder

Found it and really enjoying it. Thanks for the suggestion

That's a band to see live if you have a chance

I definitely do too. It could've have been the next one up, easily

Book Of Angels blindfold sounds a great idea and an original thematic approach to me - so much variety in the players and styles within that series. If it got mixed reactions then I'd've thought that was the idea of the exercise. At least mixed means there were some positive responses.

It's line ups like that that make me wish I was ten years older!

Looks like he's sitting in the front pew...

Glad to hear EP's got the Electro/Acoustic Ensemble back playing live - interesting selection of players in it too. It's been a while since he's done similar back here. The couple of times I've been lucky enough to see the ensemble have been magnificent

Looks good. No mention that King played in the great Buffalo Collision band of Berne's. Hope they get to record or visit UK, or both

I spoke to him briefly after an Oto gig and he was charming, almost self-deprecating in his description of the sets he'd just played I've been enjoying this album a lot recently.the combination really clicks for me. Probably the first time I've knowingly listened to a "stoner rock band" as the label describes them

Yes, it was a ridiculous extravagance. I saw a slightly more affordable copy on Discogs recently that didn't have the wooden box. I wish it'd been available when I was looking. Still, bought now and enjoying it

Thanks, two of my favourites. I'll take ECM pressing quality over ESP pressing bubbles any day
