Quite a guitar player, and a fine singer.

I wish I had the requisite time and talent! McNeill had an utterly fascinating life, studying art with Picasso, designing a USPD postage stamp for Kwaanza, and being a quite celebrated photographer and a college professor in addition to his exquisite music.

Rodgers/Edwards/Thompson (Chic)

Totally comprehensive. Ideal box set.

Give me a book on Charles Tolliver and Stanley Cowell and Strata-East, and a book on Lloyd McNeill.

What a great foundation for a lasting relationship! It would have been 1961 with that group, the Morgan/Timmons edition was still in place throughout 1960 and into 1961.

Understood. 'Indestructible' just explodes into my head when I listen to it.

+ Mosaic , Three Blind Mice, Buhaina's Delight on BM before the Riverside's. His greatest group (and the trumpet change for Indestructible was fine, that's a killer album. Not gonna go wrong with Lee Morgan, though Freddie Hubbard was killer in that group).

Agreed, that was quite a group, but $16 for a 66-minute download? Pass.

Same here, sometimes many months later.

I have the Debut album (trio with MIngus/Roach) and like it plenty. How does her other music hold up if your tastes don't really extend to pre-bop styles except for the canonical master musicians?

I like it much better than I expected. Doesn't have that static rhythm too many Afro/Cuban sets do.

How good is it?

I treat at least parts of some song lyrics as poetry or, less often, prose. I own Dylan lyrics 1962-1985 book and the Springsteen lyrics book. Dylan's "My Back Pages", "Chimes of Freedom", those are poetry to me. Something like Norman Whitfield's "Papa Was A Rolling Stone" and "Cloud Nine" and Bobbie Gentry's "Ode To Billy Joe" and Mann/Weil's "On Broadway" and Springsteen's "The River" and "Thunder Road" and "Racing in the Streets" are prose to me.

Well, that's Craft's goal for us, if not ours for ourselves.

Yes, my favorite Messengers group of all!

Amen. And he acknowledges that in many of his song titles. For instance, here is the track listing from 'The Believer': A Is It Not True, Simply Because You Cannot Believe It? B1 I Do Believe B2 Believe, For It Is True! IIRC, his father was a Baptist pastor.

Good enough album, but doesn't hold a candle to the one that followed it, 'Ugetsu'.

@felser I saw some talk about Billy Harper, so I'll guess it's him. He's doing his Coltrane/McCoy thing, but at least it's restrained. @mjzee I didn't realize that a Coltrane/McCoy thing was bad! Yes, it's Harper.

It is Billy, and I agree, high praise due, regardless of what @Dan Gould thinks! @felser Well an interesting Felser in that I didn't start hating it until that god-awful sax solo. No stars and NEXT! @Dan Gould That's my favorite musician in the history of the world, he is to me what Percy France is to you, so ouch! We DO have different tastes! 😀

Horo had some other releases in the same period. The Max Roach Loadstar is great, as is the Archie Shepp Jazz A Confronto 27. A huge regret that there have been so few CD releases of the Horo material: HDP series HDP 1-2 Irio De Paula orchestra Casinha Branca HDP 3-4 Sam Rivers trio Black Africa 1 HDP 5-6 Sam Rivers trio Black Africa 2 HDP 7-8 Ran Blake solo piano Open City HDP 9-10 Max Roach quartet The Loadstar HDP 11-12 Michael Smith duo Elvira Madigan HDP 13-14 Archie Shepp trio The Tradition HDP 15-16 M.E.V.: Lacy / Teitelbaum / List / Berger sextet United Patchwork HDP 17-18 Lee Konitz / Martial Solal Duo Duplicity HDP 19-20 Sun Ra Arkestra Unity HDP 21-22 Karl Berger duo Changing the Time HDP 23-24 Sun Ra Quartet featuring John Gilmore Other Voices, Other Blues HDP 25-26 Sun Ra Quartet featuring John Gilmore New Steps HDP 27-28 Burton Greene solo piano It's All One HDP 29-30 Lester Bowie African Children HDP 31-32 Gil Evans Orchestra Parabola HDP 33-34 Gunter Hampel / Jeannie Lee duo Oasis HDP 35-36 Bennink / Mengelberg / Rutherford / Schiano quartet A European Proposal HDP 37-38 Garrett List/ Lancaster/ Shahid, Etc. quartet American Images HDP 39-40 Wheeler / Rudd / Potts /Evan / Parker / Rjewski / Honsiger / Lacy / Lytton, etc. orchestra Laboratorio della Quercia HDP 41-42 Joe Venuti & Joe Albany quintet Joe Venuti & Joe Albany Complete HZ Series (12 single LPs) HZ 01: Archie Shepp – Mariamar HZ 02: Don Pullen – Five to Go HZ 03: George Adams / Don Pullen Quintet – Suite for Swingers HZ 04: Michael Smith –The Dualities of Man HZ 05: Steve Lacy – Threads HZ 06: Ran Blake – Crystal Trip HZ 07: Jean-François Jenny-Clark & Aldo Romano – Divieto di Santificazione HZ 08: Steve Lacy – The Catch HZ 09: David Murray– Sur-real Saxophone HZ 10: Archie Shepp – Body and Soul HZ 11: Steve Lacy – Eronel HZ 12: Roswell Rudd – The Definitive Roswell Rudd

I like and own this book by Ashley Kahn, have no need for the current book being discussed:

I sometimes hit several of those on a single BFT.

Cut 4 from this is what we are discussing then. I have never checked out that album - my bad I guess? Easily remedied on the used market.
