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

David Murray - Ming's Samba [Portrait]

David Murray Octet - Home [Black Saint] the line up of this Octet is quite something

Herbie Mann - Stone Flute [Embryo Records] Herbie Mann - Gagaku & Beyond [Finnadar] and now, another spin of this

Well, that was a very fun couple of hours. Keith Richards is really just there for effect now as he plays little guitar of any significance, Ronnie Wood was on fire taking the vast majority of lead guitar. Charlie Watts is still the coolest of the lot and Jagger is just Jagger. Obviously the back catalogue is huge and full of classics but it's still a surprise when they pull yet another gem out of the bag. Expectations fully exceeded (and partner ecstatic).

"The Ritual" has moved to the top of the 'to buy' list

Really? Does Iverson not know about Dean to that, somewhat dismissive, extent - "this person".

The Rolling Stones I've never felt the urge to see them but my partner has always wanted to and they're not getting any younger. I'm prepared to be pleasantly surprised...

Kahil El 'Zabar & David Murray - Golden Sea [Sound Aspects] I saw this duo in a not yet finished Jazz Cafe in London in about 1989 when this was released. Winter, no heating, no licensed bar but the music kept us all very warm. I don't listen enough to the El 'Zabar recordings I own

That's what I thought too Andrew Hill - Invitation [Steeplechase]

Paul Bley Trio - s/t [Radio Canada International]

I keep meaning to get that

Worry not, it's not really very good at all... It's from the same session as the ECM 'Ballads' which is at the top of my list of favourites - both are sparser than many of the other trio recordings and foreground Altschul and Peacock to great effect on some extended solo/duo passages. Glorious stuff. I discovered its existence on here too. There's a Paul Bley Trios thread somewhere. Dangerous place

This one's right up there with my favourite Bley trio recordings

Sleeve, labels and music all aligning on this one

Thanks Adrian

will be doing likewise as soon as it appears over here

I thought I'd join in this game too. Mine appears to be the same - stereo sound but with mono labels (with "not for sale" stamped on) but not in a stereo sleeve

A UK source for the Threadgills?

I bought Carla Bley's "Andando El Tiempo" from the ECM rep at a gig. Horrible pressing fault on it which he initially denied could exixt but eventually admitted when he received more complaints. Quality control is high as we all know at ECM but occasionally...
