Beaver Harris Quartet - 'Beaver Is My Name' [Timeless] I hear this as a lot more successful than 'In:Sanity'

Tomorrow night at Cafe Oto, Anthony Braxton 'Zim Music'. Sextet with two harps, can't wait

Amongst his many admirable traits and skills Robben was superb at throwing a dummy. After following that link I now know how defenders must have felt like when they'd been done like a kipper by Arjen

So speaks the fount of common-sense and balanced reporting. Health warning required. I found myself feeling quite sick visiting that site for the first time

I'm listening to 'In:Sanity' now and I hear a good album in there trying to struggle out. Oddly for a drummer-led date it's sounding a bit rhythmically constipated (and the muddy mix doesn't help either). I'm not sure the writing's there to support the larger ensemble either and when it breaks free from the arrangements a bit it sounds more vital. Still a fine line-up. I very much rate 'A Well Kept Secret' and also the Timeless date ' Beaver Is My Name' but then I like a steel pan or two - it's a London thing

Beaver Harris 360 Degree Music Experience - In:Sanity [Black Saint] spinning this for the first time in a long time on the back of comments in the Reissues thread about this band

The only sensible approach, i agree. Get out of the group if we're lucky One of the worst offenders I've witnessed is Arjen Robben, whilst playing for Chelsea, Holland, Bayern and RM, so North Europeans can be just as bad

It's the same across many high level teams. Just don't let club allegiance blind you to the fact that it doesn't happen with your own team too

Spring Heel Jack, Wadada Leo Smith, Pat Thomas, Steve Noble - Hackney Road [Treader]

A big hole in my AEOC collection that needs filling soon

LP3. Enjoying Bartee's contributions and hearing CJ Shearn's observations about the drumming loud and clear

My team couldn't afford Ramos, thankfully

It's obvious to me that he had no intention of unlocking his arm as that would have prevented him from the roll/pull manoeuvre that was intended to injure Salah. As they move together Ramos has the option to simply shoulder barge Salah off the ball and achieve possession for his team. He chooses not to and instead locks Salah's arm. Klopp is bound to say something like that as he wants to respect the occasion. It doesn't lessen the Ramos's culpability one iota. I think it's a shame as a team of RM's quality should be able to win trophies without resorting to such tactics

Glad it isn't just me. A case of less than the sum of its considerable parts for me

Oh, it was most definitely a foul and I think Ramos knew exactly what he was doing - the more I view it the more obvious that seems. Part of his remit was to nullify Salah and what better way than that - premeditated cheating. To have such disregard for a fellow professional's welfare is a disgrace. All great defenders have the ability to exploit the dark arts and Ramos has that in spades. And, no I'm not a Liverpool fan

I thought I could hear your applause... The longer tracks work best. It's a shame they didn't make it a double package and maintain more of the band playing on each piece to provide greater context for Gare's solos. Sounds fine for what this is, a fond memorial

Worth the entry fee for the first track alone

Parker, Edwards, Corsano - The Hurrah [Oto roku] Fantastic!

Anyone interested in EP's work will enjoy listening to this discussion with Dave Douglas, I think As always, he's an entertaining, informative and modest conversationalist https://greenleafmusic.com/anftd-49-evan-parker/

Brotzmann, Mengelberg, Bennink - 3 Points And A Mountain [FMP] Fuchs, Schneider, Huber - Momente [FMP] two marvellous trios. The Fuchs sounding particularly impressive this morning

I like that one a lot

Indeed...another interested party here?

Mike Westbrook - In Memory Of Lou Gare [Westbrook Records] https://thebluemoment.com/2018/05/22/lou-gare-a-souvenir/

Enough Mr Murray. Now for an all time favourite, irrespective of genre I remember the DIWs being available at Mole but costly. I was surprised that 'Ming's Samba' was released in 1989. In my head it was later but I have no recollection of buying it. Just another in The Great Hoovering
