Yeah, Uncle Evan...

The Sea Trio (Yoshihide, Satoh, Turner) - Live in Munich And Bonn [Confront]

I wish I'd done that. I do have a large box of paper tickets which I routinely saved but sadly these days that's not an option.

Just read it, first time for a while and having listened to a lot of Pat Thomas both live and recorded recently he strikes as someone who absolutely belongs in the school

That's recommendation enough for me. I'm excited to hear it but as I ordered from Squidco it's going to be a while before I do

Previously available through a Dusk Fire release, here https://www.discogs.com/release/2958535-Neil-Ardleys-New-Jazz-Orchestra-Camden-70 I missed it then so will be interested in the BGO

I ordered it yesterday

I'm very happy to take the advice from an Italian on coffee and Moka use. Luckily it looks like I've been using mine more or less correctly for a few decades but I do wash with soap so will stop that! Many of the independent coffee makers don't distinguish between filter and Moka grinds so looks like I need to grind my own. I do have a grinder so will stop being so lazy. For health reasons I drink only decaffeinated but the new independent coffee makers grind some excellent decaf these days. As it is, I've always found decaffeinated coffee is more available and understood in countries with a strong coffee culture like Spain and Italy rather than in the UK.

Another vote for the audio technica cleaner

Maybe you should finally give it to him then...😄

Nope, never have

David Murray - Ballads For Bass Clarinet [DIW]

David Murray Quartet - Francesca [Intakt]

Just booked to see him in November in London. A trio with Ingebrigt Hakon-Flaten and Paal Nilsson-Love. Should be fiery

Why don't I have that Mangelsdorff, I have a number of others. Needs rectifying by the sounds of things

Beautifully written, arranged and played in that British pastoral Jazz tradition

Time for that 90s blog perhaps? 😀

This discussion has sent me back to 'Green Street' and count me in with the camp that likes the repetition. I hear it as a tension/release technique that works very effectively, like 'the drop' in dance music. There's a conviction in holding onto the repetition for longer than most would maybe feel 'normal', to great effect. It's a 'less is more' statement as I hear it.

Thank you TTK, certainly sounds like I should hear it

Who's ever truly done? Now a bit different Milt Bernhart Brass Ensemble - Modern Brass [RCA Victor, 1955 Mono]

Thank you, enjoy the revisit

GianluigiTrovesi - Baghet [Dischi Della Quercia, Italy 1978] Santucci-Scoppa - On The Underground Road [dire, Italy 1978 RE] Does the quartet get much exposure on that or is it predominantly the orchestra and chorus?

Both are very good indeed, I think you'd enjoy them.
