Oh hell yeah. Great CD which I purchased recently from a board member.

Lots of bitching in this thread. I'll stir the pot by saying that I liked the Vandermark award & suspect (don't know) that he used it well.

I like the new documentary on Leonard Cohen, I'm Your Man.

Thanks Chuck. I'll take a look.

Jane Ira Bloom Quartet playing the music from Chasing Paint. Intense, virtuosic, but humorless.

I have it. It's nice. Not for sale.

I believe Cadence is still stocking Silkheart CDs.

Me too, & I don't upgrade.

Happy New Ears is an excellent CD.

Tomas Eloy Martinez: The Tango Singer

I believe I will. Thanks for the reminder.

No, but this goes near the top of the list for sure. A great disc that is not to be missed is Very Saxy which features Ricky Ford on one disc and Houston Person on the other. I wonder if Plas and Red play together or separately. Where can Very Saxy be purchased?? Thanks.

I think all of the above apart from 'Congo Lament' have previously been out as Conns. They all need to be available again though. The Harold Vick in particular. Not sure 'Congo Lament' has ever been on CD (I have an LP of it with the weird monkey-in-earmuffs jungle scene ). Good music though ! Actually Congo Lament is partially issued on the excellent Bennie Green Mosaic Select (five tracks with Ike & Turrentine on tenor, with Green, Sonny Clark, Milt Hinton & Art Blakey). Cuscuna states in the liners that these sides and three quartet tracks were issued in 1985 as "Easy Living" on BST 84103. I would love to hear those quartet tracks also, described by MC as "among his (Quebec's) finest moments on tape". I have Easy Living on CD - 8 tracks. I don't know if BST 84103 ever was actually released. My CD shows a release date of 1987. Number on the "spine" is CDP 7 46846 2. BTW the music is all excellent.

Thanks for posting this. Doesn't sound very promising.

I don't know anything about this new CD, but Myra Melford is a great piano player.

Tomasz Stanko Quartet: Lontano

You guys are mean.

That made me think of Dominick Farinacci (trumpet) who plays on Krivda's CJR & CIMP CDs & has his own series of CDs only released in Japan.

peanut butter on a warmed tortilla - really

Frank Lowe Quintet: Soul Folks

Sept.26 according to the official Mingus web site.

I used both coupons. My wife saved $9 on a yoga mat - she says it's a good deal. I bought 2 CDs. Thanks.
