When's the Intakt due, Alex?

Archie Shepp - The Tradition [Horo]

Bradford/Modirzadeh/Dresser/Cline - Live At THe Open Gate [No Business] Bobby Bradford/Frode Gjerstad Quartet - The Delaware River [No Business] Bradford/Gjerstad/Haker Flaten/Nilssen-Love - Kampen [No Business] such a great run, listened to in reverse for no particular reason. Gearing up for the new one, just announced by No Business

I'll have to look closer at my Dragon Hill (the only other i have) No Hangman's Hill around here unless Ally Pally has a pre-BBC history of summary justice

Sounds plausible enough for me on a Sunday morning...lovely album even if the cover's macabre

Frank Ricotti Quartet - Our Point Of View [CBS/Realm] pleased to finally pick up a NM copy at an affordable price. Does anyone (Sidewinder?) know what the rather imposing cover image is of?

what's the shipping on a T to the UK? Website only seems to cater for US postage

Thanks Clifford, I'll give it a spin the Finders Keepers says "taken directly from François Tusques very own master-tape archive, allowing Finders Keepers access to two rare original out-takes which did not appear on the original LP"

Never heard it but I'll probably buy it on reputation alone, thanks for the link

Trio KoKoKo (Koglmann, Koch, Koltermann) - Good Night [Creative Works} Floros Floridis - s/t [Improvisation Series]

can you hear me clapping? It was a "Lordy Lordy" sort of evening. Glad the recording gets that across. I often feel reluctant about buying recordings of concerts that I've really enjoyed so I've not yet bought it A copy of the Branch is on its way to me. Can't wait. I've been keeping an eye out for her since she recorded with Tim daisy ages ago You'd've had a bidding war It's the only Threadgill I've yet to get

Bev's Ok and seems to be making the most of his well earned free time

Chico Hamilton Trio {Pacific Jazz] w. George Duvivier, Jim Hall/Howard Roberts sublime

Parker/Edwards/Russell - Walthamstow Moon ('61 Revisited) [Byrd Out]

On Spotify in the UK

I suspect everyone's enjoyed the rest day after the hairy day on the slopes yesterday. A real shame for both Porte and Thomas and Porte's crash looked particularly nasty. Aru's move on Froome was intriguing as was the lack of response from the other GC contenders who all chose to respect the yellow jersey. When will Aru make his next move? On UK TV today Froome's talking about riding defensively and using the TT at the end to attack but then he isn't going to broadcast his real intentions to anyone. He could well try and put some distance between him and the others on one of the upcoming mountain stages

Pat Thomas - The Elephant Clock Of Al Jazari [OtoRoku] excellent new solo recording by one of the UK's unsung, and under-recorded, improv heroes

Yusef Lateef - Gong! [Savoy]. LP 1

My first listen and the lack of drums doesn't seem a radical departure at all, hardly missing them. As said upthread, Coleman's music has such a strong rhythmic centre anyway. For me it's the use of piano that's interesting and, as Xybert says, the bass is right on the nose (Bruce Chudzik is a new name to me, I think). It's reminds me a little of Zooid in it's detailed but light-footed groove but obviously doesn't sound like them at all. Just sounds like an excellent Coleman album. And that's just the first listen...

I have tickets for that band in October. Glad to hear there's a recording too

Sagan is usually one of the Tour's characters. I'm not too sure what Cav thinks of Sagan's swagger at the moment The film I saw did made it look a lot more of an offensive rather than defensive/balancing movement. Froome now back in yellow. His Sky protection team will now move into place

Karl Berger - With Silence [Enja] following on from John Surman - Where Fortune Smiles [Dawn]

Now I wish I'd paid a lot more attention in French classes...

Many things are happening in the UK that don't seem possible or baffling at the moment.... People who are buying LPs are buying them for the object and the experience. They're probably less inclined by SQ issues and some haven't lived with vinyl long enough to realise the inherent idiosyncrasies that made the CD so attractive. Chances are many are also streaming other music or even streaming the LP's music - different formats, different platforms, different playback situations. They will likely get the download bundled with the LP Others will go to their grave claiming the SQ is better, warmer, whatever on vinyl (I'm really not interested in getting into that hoary old debate yet again - it's been done to death on this board over many years) and are returning to the format after a CD hiatus. Any which way, it's just folks listening to music which is a good thing....oh, and record companies finding another way to exploit their product!

Great for Williams to get the yellow. Froome's advantage over his main rivals is an interesting start to the Tour. Sky won't be giving that up easily
