OK....so for those of us that haven't been about so long.....what's with all the rats? they seem to be highjacking a sound thread. Enlightenment?
-
Yes - from Jazz Loft. How is it? Great IMHO. I've always been a big Vandermark "fan". How does the Resonance band writing compare/differ to his writing for say Vandermark 5 or work with Territory Band? Been toying with getting this. I find the first an intensely fascinating listen and I'm not sure I've completely absorbed it even now. Does 'Uniion' follow much the same path?

Exactly why I started this thread! I salivated at the thought but had no idea there was a record. Thanks. Dive in without hestitation. It was everything I wanted it to be. I'm vey impressed by JA in every context and he plays very well in this context
-
what a great thread - could be costly! I'd spotted the two Clean feed's in Colinmce's op too - particularly intrigued by that Revis as I enjoy all the players in seperate situations I'll add a recent one that's well worth a listen Peter Brötzmann & Jason Adasiewicz Going All Fancy Brö-E CD through Eremite Brotzmann?/Asadiewicsz

Are there any box bargains currently available?
mjazzg replied to GA Russell's topic in Mosaic and other box sets...
Extremely lame, huh? There might be people who don't have these yet ... and I guess quite a few, as the Columbia albums' reputation ain't the finest. What I would enjoy though would be a companion box containing the albums as originally released. Count me as one of those people, thanks for standing up for us Ubu. This set might just be what makes me plug that particular gap -
Just what i didn't want to hear. The "selling fast" bit, that is. I saw that band a couple of years ago and they were excellent.Fully intend to purchase this budget (and now availability) willing. I'm a big fan of their Reknes recording on Circulasione Totale

Which Jazz box set are you grooving to right now?
mjazzg replied to Cliff Englewood's topic in Mosaic and other box sets...
Thanks colin and kh. I'm a fan of jazz flute, Newton, Rivers, Kenyatta amongst others and Threadgill definitely so I think I may plug the gap -

mjazzg replied to Cliff Englewood's topic in Mosaic and other box sets...
Yep...you do! How's the Flutistry disc folks? it's the only one in the box i've not got -
first listen to a new arrival. Track 'Donna Lee' has the most abrupt fade, make that cut off (sounds like the band fell off a cliff) I've heard in a long while. Enjoying Pete Warren's contributions

Original or was this reissued? Original or was this reissued? Mine's the original but I believe it got a Get Back reissue

with Arthur Jones - a very big bonus

Favorite Free Jazz/Avant Garde Box Sets
mjazzg replied to Face of the Bass's topic in Mosaic and other box sets...
Peter Brotzmann Chicago tentet +1 - 3 nights in Oslo five discs, two of the tentet+1, the other three a variety of configurations from the tentet personnel (saw this band in London earlier this week - stunning) -
Thanks very much for posting this. looking forward to hearing it

I had to look twice but he's selling empty boxes for $$$ more than CDs - now that's what I call high pricing Would like Waldron's the Call that's listed at $20 cheaper than some of the empty boxes!
-
Another great gone. Sublime singer, great live performer and songwriting par excellence. Leaves a big void. Thank you and RIP TC

BBC broadcasting tribute tomorrow (monday) night http://www.bbc.co.uk/programmes/b01nj80g should be available for a week after on their iplayer service
-
Now that does look interesting. i know Stahl from a couple of dates and Ljungkvist too - both interesting players. I'm intrigued by your Giuffre reference. Off to see what I can find....
-
now that's the one No Business LP I have splashed out on. No regrets, lovely recording and great music
-
reacquainting after 10 year absence in storage. could do without the hokey blues number - the rest, magnificent Really fancy that one and the tarfala on the same label - just wish they were a bit more affordable

Pristine LP with One Track Played to Death
mjazzg replied to Teasing the Korean's topic in The Vinyl Frontier
Hamiet Bluiett - Birthright. Copy sounds fine (occasional pop that I can live with so such great music) then we hit the quietest track and it's like the alien's are beaming in a signal - why wreck just the one track so much? Vinyl betrays no inkling of alien interference. -
What Things Will You Not Like In Your Jazz?
mjazzg replied to JSngry's topic in Miscellaneous - Non-Political
yes, yes and yes again (mind you I don't even like the majority of them performed by the Beatles) -
No, this is so sad. and just not what i wanted to hear. Always loved his playing and was lucky to see him live with a marvellous quartet once. he played with such heart and soul and the world will be both poorer and quieter without him. RIP

Last art exhibition you visited?
mjazzg replied to mikeweil's topic in Miscellaneous - Non-Political
The Hepworth rotates the collection? great, another reason to return. What a fantastic gallery space and building. She deserves it, mind. Maybe make it back in time to catch the Miro
