Jone Takamaki Trio - Universal Mind [Arc Light Editions] Jone Takamaki - s/t [Johanna] Takamaki's just announced a gig at Cafe Oto next month! Chico Freeman - Kings of Mali [india Navigation]. A one side LP for me, side 2 always outshines side 1.

whilst we're talking Tomeka Reid, anyone heard her 'Hairy Who & the Chicago Imagists' album? I'd be interested in impressions if you have

Leeway, thanks for remembering to ask MM. Here's hoping the UK gigs materialise. I'm certainly looking forward to the new album

Thanks for the reports. Sounds both exhilirating and exhausting

Very good live. I've seen them at least twice

Sirone - Artistry [Of The Cosmos] of all the LPs I've discovered over the last few years buying vinyl again this is the THE one. So good on every listen and whilst we're at it my 'People in Sorrow' is the unreadable (not Nessa's fault) version

Harry Miller's Ishipongo - Family Affair [Ogun] another stray homed for a fellow boardee, with much gratitude

Elton Dean's Ninesense - Happy Daze [Ogun]

Happy Birthday CT. Hope it's rare and original!

of Evelyn Glennie? Yes

Mike Osborne Quintet - Marcel's Muse [Ogun] thanks Bev!

One of the best ever for me

If she does ask her to post me one.....or even better bring the band over here

Would love to see Berger live. that sounds like a great night

Really enjoyed this BFT. I'll be tracking down the Azar Lawrence and the Nate Morgan for starters with eyes out for some others along the way I said on the discussion thread that the Callier was just an unexpected delight to hear here.The album "What Color is Love" is a masterpiece but not his only one. Certainly his recording with Orton gave him wider exposure but the real championing was done earlier by DJs on the London scene which ended up with Callier visiting here for gigs at which point the Orton connection comes into play I think

Haven't paid more than £20 for a CD. LPs are different. One very much wanted and rare item came in at a shade under £150. Next most expensive has been under £50, more commonly £20 or so.

Couple of gems there. Coin Coin Chapter Two is startling stuff. Indeed. I've listened to both volumes several times on Spotify, but with the new one arriving soon I figured I should start to buy them up. new one soon? when, where? that's exciting news indeed, thanks edit to add: see all about it on the Constellation site. Solo, interesting indeed

Horace Tapscott - The Call [Nimbus] waited some years to hear this.....just opened a sealed copy( Xmas present).....not disappointed

It was closed on the saturday afternoon I was there in October much to my disappointment Interesting to see two new independent shops have opened in Shoreditch - one a vinyl only Sister Ray, the other a third branch of secondhand dealers Flashback Records. Obviously reflects the changing geographical focus of the younger pound

Damn, cover blown.....

Passport lapsed 11 years ago and no driving licence - do I officially exist?

public domain minstrels.....been around a while in Europe you know

Wadada Leo Smith/Jamie Saft/Joe Morris/Balazs Pandi - Red Hill [Rare Noise]

"offed themselves"? not morbid but insensitive to anyone who's life's been touched by suicide I might suggest But hey, we like our lists here so....
