Tva for Tommy - Stahl/Thorman/Ljungkvist [Found You Recordings] Attractive take on Giuffre/Bley/Swallow trio with vibes instead of piano.

possibly my two favourite Shorters

Marvellous I've wondered about this one . I've had mixed experience of No Business pressings . How's this one? No complaints here. Except the price .... Indeed. No Business vinyl is treat only territory.

without doubt London's ever marvellous rhythm section John Edwards with Mark Sanders or Steve Noble. Evan Parker, John Russell, Peter Brotzmann, Kenny Wheeler, Tim Berne

Schoolkids these days, I don't know? I blame the teachers

No one else has ever understood

I feel so much better now......

Thanks for making my day with this news

Yes, i was surprised the other week to see the shuttered HMV on Oxford Street but then remembered the relocation. I didn't bother to look for the other site. Did you visit Harold Moores in your time killing Bev? The gift shop's been a feature at the Barbican for at least a couple of years. There is a music shop, selling scores, instruments and Cds by the Silk Street entrance which is the one I think Sidewinder's referring to - I've never been in it though. The labyrinth that is the Barbican Centre defies any logical navigation suffice to say what is Sidewinder's 'main entrance' is on the other side of the building to the pedestrian 'fountain entrance'. Tthere are still people who attended the opening of the complex in 1982 trying to find an exit, they are heard weeping and wailing through the night

S.M.E - Live, Big Band and Quartet [Vinyl Records]

Interesting, didn't know about that one. I think I'd like to make its acquaintance

That trio of french players play on some of my favourite releases from a few years ago. Intrigued and excited to hear them with Takase Interesting to hear that's been your live experience, Leeway. You pretty much sum up my disc experience of Evans (I've actually avoided the opportunity to see him live) as when I've enjoyed his contributions it's been with Evan's Electro-Acoustic Ensemble or his own release 'Ghosts'. Wooley I enjoy in every context I've heard him.

possibly the best band photo cover ever. And the music isn't bad either

Thanks for posting. Just made it in time. I'll look forward to revisiting some great sounds

I haven't warmed to Ibragon outside MOPDK. For me, it's a case of technique (which i hear lots of) over content which is much the same as my reaction to a lot of Peter Evans outside MOPDK too. But that's just me, I suspect

waited for payday. Payday came, LP sold

first review I've seen here http://www.londonjazznews.com/2014/02/cd-review-jon-irabagon-trio-it-takes.html

Arve Henriksen - Solidification [Rune Grammofon]. Currently Strjon, side C. working through the box in keen anticipation of the arrival of latest release 'Cosmic Creation'

I missed the inteview but thought the gig was great

The last time I made the trip to Cheltenham was a few years back to see Dunmall with Profound Sound Trio - that was definitely worth the journey. This year's line up doesn't really inspire me except anything involving Thomas Stronen is usually worth a listen. They're not Jazz but I would like to see Tinariwen and I do like Gregory Porter. If I lived in Cheltenham I might go and see Loose Tubes, Denys Baptiste and Ambrose Akinmusire but I won't be buying train tickets this year. A fairly uninspiring selection spread pretty thin.

Great session. Full of space and grace
