How was the show? I'd love to see them again, after having seen Ely a few times solo since the last Flatlanders show here. Very nice. Great stories & excellent music. Ely told a story about driving across Texas many years ago & picking up a hitchiker who turned out to be Townes Van Zandt carrying a sackful of vinyl LPs.

Good for you.

Sounds like a Townes Van Zandt song. R.I.P.

Flatlanders

Get 'em out of "storage" & see what they are.

Of recent ones, I like Naturally on High Note with Walton, Drummond & Nash.

Now listening to Bye Bye Blackbird CD.

He did play with Paul Butterfield's band. and Little Milton, IIRC, v. early on. And in a different vein - Gil Evans. Also for those who are old enough to remember, he had a lot to do with the TV show Night Music.

He did play with Paul Butterfield's band.

I don't have the box. I do have several of the single CDs. They're very good IMHO.

Finally got around to relistening to The Out Of Towners. Very nice!!

Bill Evans: Complete Fantasy - CDs 1 & 2

Pomegranate Izze - ice cold, it's really hot here today.

Agreed - great box set!

Pulled my OJC CD copy out last night & listened carefully. Pretty good. Thanks for bringing it up.

Before the haters come out, I'm getting this one!!

This thread is all over the place. I'm not big on Metheny, Shipp, Glasper. I love Monk, Bud & Wayne. So - what to do. I've heard Hoffman with Brian Lynch & he wasn't terrible. I guess for today I'll go back to my Silke Eberhard CDs. There you all go.

Mumford & Sons

Yes - that's the one I read.

Adam Johnson: The Orphan Master's Son
