  1. Thats OK John , Im not sure if they can achieve it they are starting to look a bit tired now. But they have played some magnificent football this season . I watched them easily beat my team (Southampton) this season , the score was only 1-0 but they didnt look like they were even in second gear.
  2. Erm did Man U go through the whole league season undefeated????? No previous team has done this - so I thought it would have been unique.
  3. Another SHOCK!!!!!! CHAMPIONS LEAGUE RESULTS/SCORERS Agg: DEP CORUNA 4-0 AC MILAN 5-4 Pandiani 5 Valeron 34 Luque 44 Fran 76 AC were favourites!
  4. Arsenal started really well last season & had a real rough patch in the middle of the season & I wonder if its going to happen again now??? They are favourites for the title (they are 4 points clear) but the pressure seems to be on them to loose it. Plus Henry is out for the next few games.I think Chelsea will be full of confidence after last nights result. Up until the weekend i thought we could be seeing Arsenal achieving something really unique but i thought the backlog of fixtures may catch up with them & it looks like it has , there only looked like one outcome in the second half of last nights game. I was really pleased to see a Southampton boy win the game last night
  5. I'm embarrassed to say this is the position I'm in at the moment , I keep trying to cut down on my purchases but this internet makes it sooo difficult.I find a thread about hard to find Trane Cds that were only released in Japan - a handful of clicks later & they are on the way to my door. This year I thought I'd just stick to Mosaics that are running low & a few new releases , & what happens - the running lows seem to be coming along all the time.

    Looks like CADENCE is the official distributor and DMG also sells clean feed titles. Thanks Chaney , it looks like http://www.crazyjazz.co.uk/labels/c/cleanfeed.htm (a little closer to home) has clean feed as well. They all seem to have all the titles except for this one (typically) Release date was March - I'll have to keep checking these sites.

  23. More news from the Ayler site April 1 2004 News Revenant Records - Albert Ayler Box Set The Cleveland La Cave Tapes The last I heard about the Cleveland La Cave tapes was that they'd been lost. The sessions are mentioned in the Mike Hames discography but as far as I know the tapes have never done the rounds of the bootleg collectors. So it goes without saying that their inclusion in the Revenant box set is quite amazing. The details I have at present are as follows: Albert Ayler Quintet: Ayler (tenor saxophone) with Donald Ayler (trumpet); Michel Sampson (violin); Mutawef Shaheed (fka Clyde Shy) (bass); Ronald Shannon Jackson (drums). Recorded April 16, 1966 at La Cave: Cleveland, Ohio 1. spoken intro (1:00) 2. Spirits Rejoice (4:41) 3. D.C. (6:09) 4. untitled (7:04) 5. Our Prayer (6:50) 6. spoken intro (0:25) 7. untitled (16:01) 8. Ghosts (6:35) Albert Ayler Quintet: Ayler (tenor saxophone) with Donald Ayler (trumpet); Michel Sampson (violin); Mutawef Shaheed (fka Clyde Shy) (bass); Ronald Shannon Jackson (drums); Frank Wright (ts) sits in on several tunes. Recorded April 17, 1966 at La Cave: Cleveland, Ohio 1. Spirits Rejoice (6:47) 2. Medley: Prophet - Ghosts - Spiritual Bells (15:05) 3. Our Prayer (10:07) 4. Untitled/Truth Is Marching In (16:19) 5. Spirits (9:40) 6. Medley: Zion Hill - Spirits - Spiritual Bells (22:34) 7. Untitled (9:38) To put these sessions into some discographical context: Spirits Rejoice was recorded in September '65, then Ayler plays on the Sonny's Time Now session in November '65, then comes La Cave and a month later, in May '66, Live at Slug's Saloon. Presumably the La Cave sessions will resemble Live at Slug's Saloon, since apart from the bass player (Clyde Shy was a longtime friend of the Ayler brothers in Cleveland) it's the same line-up, but the earlier session is interesting for a couple of reasons. According to Richard Koloda, who kindly sent me some background information about the session, the altoist Charles Tyler quit the band during rehearsals for the show, and this was also the first appearance of the violinist, Michel Sampson, with the group, so the recording catches Ayler at one of those transitional points in his career. It is also the only known recording of Ayler playing in his home town of Cleveland. As for La Cave itself, it's probably best known outside Cleveland for a 1968 bootleg recording of the Velvet Underground. The club was situated on Euclid Avenue, near the campus of Western Reserve University. I found this brief history on a Gordon Lightfoot site: "La Cave opened in 1962 in the University Circle area of Cleveland. It began as a coffeehouse folk club but eventually became a rock 'n' roll club. The site had been a chinese restaurant and bowling alley. La Cave was in the basement and had two hundred seats. In the club's early folk days, it presented Simon & Garfunkel, Buffy Sainte Marie, Judy Collins, Ian & Sylvia, and of course Gord Lightfoot. In the late '60's the club introduced Clevelanders to Jimi Hendrix, Jefferson Airplane, and Blood, Sweat, and Tears, to name a few. Due to declining ticket sales, debt and legal issues, La Cave closed in 1969. The site is now part of University Hospitals of Cleveland." And this from a Velvet Underground site: "Located beneath the local social security offices.... La Cave's dimensions were 60'x125' with a seating capacity of 250-300... a dimly lit rectangle with burlap and church pews covering one long wall, the stage on the other, and tables in between. The stage was a platform 10 inch high with barely enough room for the Velvets stage gear." Richard Koloda reckons that the Albert Ayler Quintet was the only jazz band to appear at La Cave. Ayler's support act was a folk musician, Dick Wedler, whose only recollection of the event is that the audience were better dressed than usual. As far as the quality of the recording is concerned, I have no idea what to expect. Ayler asked a friend to tape the concerts so at least the recording was authorised and not just bootlegged by someone in the audience. Is it October yet??
  24. I've been listening to disc 1 a few times over the last couple of days , once my ears got used to where it was coming from I've really enjoyed it . Theres a really good version of Night in Tunisia on disc 1 . To these not so well informed ears Beirach sound a little like Electric Miles period Keith Jarrett , which is a compliment. I've played it a couple times in the car & it gets better with each passing minute.
  25. I've not got a problem at all..... I noticed that my credit card bills were heading towards astromical, so I sold alot of my old (non jazz ) cds to raise some extra cash towards the bill , well the money would have gone towards the bill but the exchange rate was low so it was a good time to get the Evin Jones mosaic & the the Konitz/Marsh& Tristano went on the running low , the then the new Selects came out & the RVGs , plus theres those Hatologys from.....
