  1.  

    no pics of the covers for the first 2 frames (latest 100) on my web browsers (Safari & Firefox) - frames 3, 4 & 5 are OK (previous releases)

    have no idea what the releases are

    tried CD Japan future releases - not listed there yet

    Ah well, it's a long time until November........

  2. Yes, I like all the albums I have by him but I must say that I was very disappointed when I saw him live at The Sage last year. Part of a stellar group (The Spring Quartet) with Leo Genovese, Esperanza Spaulding and Jack DeJohnette, they never seemed to get going. Lots of drum and bass solos and mainly squeaks from Joe. Maybe it was just a bad night.....

    Finished this on holiday recently.. well plotted and written, as ever by him...recommended.

    Now part way through this....

    ... lots of very interesting (to me) background to the London folk scene in the 60's and 70s. In fact not a great deal about Bert Jansch after reading a third of the book. I guess that will come later, although he does seem to be a rather enigmatic figure.....

  4. I've seen Billy a bunch of times - always great! My guess is that he doesn't tour with this own group because it's more profitable and easier with the Cookers. I've always enjoyed his own group, though, which also gives him a chance to stretch out a lot more.

    Yes, I saw him recently with The Cookers. He was predictably brilliant...in fact the whole group were terrific, one of the best jazz concerts I've been to in years.

  5. Hello,

    does anyboby know if the original liner notes in english are included in these upcoming Impulse reissues?

    That's would be great, just as for many of the recently reissued Blue Note titles.

    :Nod::Nod: :Nod:

    The original liner notes in English only appear in the reproductions of the back covers.

    Yes, that's a great shame because some of the orginal liner notes are worth reading. Sound is very good, though....
