Brother Ah - Divine Music [Manufactured Recordings] 'Searching' LP sides G/H/I RIP

Moor Mother & Nicole Mitchell - Offering, Live At Guess Who (FLAC) Dennis Gonzalez's Ataxaria - Ts'iibil Chaaltun (FLAC/2LP) Nat Birchall - Mysticism Of Sound (FLAC/LP) preorder And I completely forgot about the Colligan with Gary Thomas which I will now get in July

I always think of 'Dialogue' as much a Hill album as Bobby H's

Just read it and now listening to 'Tes Esat' for the first time in a long while

I've been reading this thread with interest and contributed a couple of times, which I now think maybe I shouldn't have as I'm on the outside. I think the thread's been remarkably free of partisan mud-slinging politics, unlike the Covid threads, and hence has been allowed to run. Most disagreement has been respectful and there hasn't been too much denigration of others views or of the individuals themselves. I hope it can remain that way but I do wonder

Thanks for posting this. I'll be buying this

I'd never admit it if it did...

A couple of weeks ago I had an LP arrive from US to UK in about 10 days

I'm still waiting for the Scott here in the UK. I did receive a notification that postage was delayed by a week or so, about a week ago

Yes, I was thinking more of protesters

A proportionate response, I'd hope. One that doesn't use one of the world's largest armies to resolve a non-military situation. Armies against unarmed citizens is rarely s good solution. My country's history is littered with examples that illustrate this. That's a very eloquent exposition, I wish your family and community safe John.

https://www.theguardian.com/us-news/2020/jun/02/police-marching-with-protesters-george-floyd-reform I'm sure this may have political undertones, in which case please remove Mod, but I found this an interesting article and a moment of hope

Maybe as an outsider to this I shouldn't be commenting and whilst absolutely agreeing with the "cooler heads" plea it strikes me that there's a vast disparity between the force currently being exercised by state forces, let alone their potential firepower, and "throwing rocks/bricks/water bottles/small explosives". The scenes I'm seeing are indistinguishable from those I watched from Hong Kong recently and that's got to mean something very worrying, surely

Watching it all with the safety of distance. Stay safe everyone. Worrying times.

He was

I had no idea that this existed until Gilles Peterson played it on his radio show yesterday. Knocked me out

yes to this. The American and European Quartets for me, sometimes one is my favourite sometimes the other, great musicianship in both. I also very much like this trio https://www.ecmrecords.com/shop/143038752916/hamburg-72-keith-jarrett-charlie-haden-paul-motian I can long a very long time without feeling the need to listen to any Jarrett mind you.

With you there. Number of times I've not bought an album of his for that reason

Sonny Greenwich

Look out for 'Clay' and 'Distant Thunder' by this group, the latter has Manfred Schoof added for extra impact, if that's possible.

Tempting but shipping costs to UK make it unlikely

Gilles Peterson has just announced the death of Jimmy Cobb. Wikipedia and some other online sources also showing the sad news.

Tragic and so unnecessary. The Care Home sector has been largely hung out to dry over here, horribly large numbers of deaths despite valiant efforts of underpaid and under-recognised staff. My mother has just come home from a 6 week stay in one where her care was tremendous.

I got notification that LP postage is delayed by a couple of weeks so I may weaken and stream

Allen,Haden,Motian - Segments [DIW] all gone now...
