That's recommendation enough and at that price, purchased

His writing remained strong and very melodic right up to the end really. There's been some concerts here recently revisiting his big band scores, some newly discovered. I'm hoping for a recording.

How did I forget Kenny?!!

Thinking about Braxton there's the Zim Music and Echo Echo Mirror House recordings Consistently interesting over a good number of years/releases, in whatever iteration

Kirk Knuffke - Super Blonde

Yeah, first listen suggests so. I remember deciding it was too expensive when I held a physical copy in Honest Jons on release. When I got the notification of the download this morning it was an instant purchase.

Juma Sultan's Aboriginal Music Society - Father Of Origin

Juma Sultan's Aboriginal Music Society - Father Of Origin Had to buy the download when Eremite announced it today, missed the original LP/CD set

Charlie Haden, Paul Motian, Geri Allen - Etudes

And there I was thinking you'd snared an ultra rare LP...

Yes and yes to those two The large ensemble disc of Anna Webber's 'Idiom' is very good. As is this also featuring Webber https://webbermorrisbigband.bandcamp.com/album/both-are-true

Marty Ehrlich's Dark Woods Ensemble - Just Before The Dawn Yes, I just looked and failed to find that on my shelves. Maybe a victim of a clear out in the last 20 years

Have you checked out the Dark Woods Ensemble? Some great music, austere to joyous if I remember correctly https://www.discogs.com/artist/507388-Marty-Ehrlichs-Dark-Woods-Ensemble This could get me searching my CD shelves...

Some on there I definitely need to check out, some I need to revisit too. Great list.

You seem to be revisiting my 90s listening list recently. Ehrlich made some great recordings around then.

Lots of good ones already. I fourth the Schneiders, and second the Truesdell Gil Evans Project and then might add, Steve Lehman & Orchestra National de Jazz - 'Ex Machina' Paal Nilssen-Love Large Unit -'Erta Ale' Barry Guy's Blue Shroud Band, especially 'all this this here' Martin Kuchen's Angles 10 - 'Today Is Better Than Tomorrow' Fire! Orchestra - especially 'Echoes' And everything by Rob Mazurek's Exploding Star Orchestra

Louis Sclavis - Les Cadences Du Monde OK, thanks. I have a shed load of David Murray so pleased this isn't deemed essential

Don't think I've ever seen that before

I saw him do this same with QW in London, possibly the same tour

His solo through the second half of 'La Pasionara' on 'Ballad Of The Fallen'

Me too now Another that was big for me back then. I remember one of my first visits to Paris Jazz Corner hoovering up all the Label Bleu I could lay my hands on, this amongst them. I seen to remember it had a good write up in the Penguin Guide at the time

I remember him mostly for his tireless championing of ECM

Thanks, I'll track it down

I don't know that one but I really rate his 'At This Point In Time'

Pat Thomas - The Elephant Clock Of Al Jazari [OtoRoku, UK 2017]
