I have so much music he plays on. Dylan, Richie Havens, Buffy Sainte-Marie, Tom Rush, Richard & Mimi Farina, Joan Baez. Gordon Lightfoot... RIP.

Really liked his work on the Bundles Album with Soft Machine. "Hazard Profile" is a stone classic.

A hard rain's gonna fall all along the watchtower.

I am also stumped, but there are a lot of interested sounds to be heard on BFT 157.

RIP, always dependably good, liked his work on Freddie Hubbard's Backlash album. Wonder why his discography wasn't bigger.

Yawn, yet another version of "Tom's Diner", this one from 20+ years before the original. BTW, it is now April 2 in the UK, so the lost tapes probably self-destructed at midnight. Thanks for sharing.

Columbia was trying to sell records, signed a bunch of topflight jazz guys around that time (Woody Shaw, Dexter Gordon, Freddie Hubbard etc.). Variable results but few disasters.. These, being on BGO, will have spectacular mastering. BGO tends to do related bunches of reissues on a given month, so will be interesting to see what else may be coming our way.

Seems like a lot of the Mainstream recordings always sounded kind of off. I was just listening to the Dave Hubbard the other day, and the sound was pretty ghastly.

Lenox was definitely released first, I remember the shock waves it created.

And, of course the Abomination of Desolation, by another certain alto player:

I do love me some Nat Morgan music. And I have been impatiently waiting all month to find out about this cut.

Blue Note Conns! And the Rainbow Series was amazing, as was much of both the 2CD series, the light brown ones and the dark brown ones.

Yes, alas, still AWOL. Wonderful album from a magical musical era.

I can get it new for about $80 shipped or used for about $70 shipped from the usual suspects, but that's a little more than I want to pay. Does anyone have any leads on one at a better price? Thanks.

I do, should have said first 15 years, up through 'Desire'.

Didn't see this coming. Anyone ever heard it? Good personnel, but I wouldn't think of it being a good combination. Nucleus and Leon Thomas Live 1970 (Mini LP Replica) (CD) ss2 The first official release of the June 1970 Montreux Jazz Festival concert featuring trumpeter Ian Carr’s pioneering Nucleus performing with US vocalist Leon Thomas on a set of Thomas’ repertoire.

Must be a REALLY good interview then . Will read the interview, wouldn't touch the set with a 10 foot pole. I love most of the first 10 years of his recordings as well as 'Infidels' and 'Time Out of Mind', but this is getting to be several bridges too far.

Billy Bang has been my big find the past 6-12 months. Can't get enough of him!

I certainly like the original release of Lotus. Another album's worth of outtakes is sweet, if it doesn't break the bank. That being said, with that group, I prefer Leon Patillo on vocals (saw them at Atlantic City Raceway along with CSNY ca. 1975, and of course he is the vocalist on Borbeletta). I never thought Thomas was a good fit with them.

Probably the three 4-CD Chess sets with his entire output for the label, though the BGO sets also sound great. Hail, hail rock and rollDeliver me from the days of oldLong live rock and rollThe beat of the drums, loud and boldRock, rock, rock and rollThe feeling is there, body and soul

I think that one sold well, it was out of print around 1998 when I sold mine. The RCA Rogers I have heard doesn't hold a candle to the Atlantics, more commercially oriented to my ears.
