Regarding MILAN SVOBODA: In the same trip to Prague and Budapest I bought a Milan Svoboda disc "Milan Svoboda Contraband - Family", but if my memory serves me right, THAT WAS NOT the CD inside the jewel case! More to check tonight! Anyway, here´s the cover:

I have Emil Viklicky & Steve Houben: BOHEMIA AFTER DARK Spun it once when I bought it two or three years ago. I remember I dug it, but can´t bring more details. Will listen to it tonight.

As of May 20: 1 EUR = 252,65 forints This means it costs 15 euros. Affordable. Who dares order from that site?

Thanks, ubu. Looks like this one´s a must-have: Con Anima/Concerto Grosso AMG review: This CD puts together the Ganelin Trio's first two LPs. Con Anima was recorded in 1976 and released the following year by Melodia, the official (and only) U.S.S.R. record label; Concerto Grosso was recorded in 1978, but released two years later. The first album presents the essential elements of the trio's sound: wild energy, passion, a propensity to draw from all of jazz's history and pre-history, along with folk music, a wide array of instruments, complex writing, etc. The album is a collage of various bits of music, vignettes so to speak, linked together by piano, saxophone, and drums solos that are faded in and out — transitions from one scene of a dream to the next. For the reissue, everything has been lumped into one 41-minute track. Sound quality gets precarious in the busier passages, but otherwise it is a very good recording, utterly risk-taking and freaky. "Concerto Grosso," also lumped into one track (35 minutes), is both more tempered and ground-breaking. Its parts are better integrated, giving the impression of a single work instead of a kaleidoscope of fragments. It takes the trio farther away from jazz into a realm that was hardly explored at the time in the West. It features pianist Ganelin on guitar for half of the record, and also sees the trio experimenting with studio techniques (multi-tracking, echo effects). Distortion problems have been settled, but at the beginning of the piece, when things are very soft, the listener can distinctly hear something else happening far in the background, as if the session had been recorded over a used reel of tape and the saxophone screams from the previous take were still audible. In any case, having both of these early recordings on one CD makes for great value. Edition limited to 750 copies.

The Stanko thread, the Körössy thread... reminded me there´s a lot of good music being done in those countries that once were under Soviet Union´s umbrella. Now´s the time to discover all that wonderful music. One I´ve heard of, but never listened to, is VYACHESLAV GANELIN. Any comments?

We could start a General Thread on Eastern Europe jazz musicians. Who? I´ll promise I´ll contribute with some Hungarian and Czech names. Well, let´s add a few Serbian...

Yet another spelling: Yancey Korosi (in the AMG review of Zoot´s disc)

BTW: your google skills are better than mine, clearly.... I tried to find something like that.... Central European technology RULES! Unamuno said: "Hay que españolizar Europa" but he also said "Hay que europeizar España" B)

Great!!! EDIT: I love those Rumanian websites.... After all, they also speak a Romance language! Now let´s talk about availability.... besides pricey Japanese LP and some above 30 USD e-bay auctions.... where on hell can we get those gems? WE HAVE TO DO SOMETHING!!!

Shit! There´s already a very good on-line discography/sessionography/compositions-list for Fats.... WAIT A MINUTE, my link to that one is not working now..... WE MUST DO SOMETHING!!! Someone should PM Volkher...

I know many guys that, being longtime members of a sports club, the only place they visit there is the BAR. They show their bellies and have a couple of whiskies.... and say THANKS to the blondie waitress

Thanks for the reminder, brownie! Fats is one of those musicians I turn to, when "life gets in the way" and I need to give a hint of a smile. Incredible pianist, joyful singer and great entertainer. Now playing Honeysuckle Rose by Ianci Körössy B)

I think we all should relax... In my opinion this thread is/should be a reminder that everybody receiving BFT discs SHOULD say, at least, "Thanks for that disc" to the compiler, publicly in the Discussion or the Sign-up thread, or privately via PM or e-mail. For all of us "life gets in the way" at any time, so NO OBLIGATION to post guesses or comments on every track: that´s clearly stated in the BFT Rules! banning??? black list??? three shots and you´re dead??? Who´s gonna be the police court?

Wooo, couw, thanks for discovering this wonderful musician for us! Now listening to the complete Jazz Recital disc. It´s fantastic! You scored the bulls-eye when you said I´d like him! He has an incredible sense of swing, a beautiful touch and a stunning technique. Very Tatumesque, but with not so complex harmonies. Just like a mix of Teddy Wilson and Art Tatum, with touches of Errol Garner.

Tokyo for 2016 now!!!

You gotta love the Rabbit! Maybe this one´s the second in my Favorite Mosaics ranking (first is the Eldridge, by a hair). Very homogeneus music. Very beautiful music. With its limitations, due to his stylistic approach and leaning toward ballads and blues, Hodges´ is one the most identifiable alto saxes in jazz history. And member of MY trilogy: Carter/Hodges/Parker. Just my two cents.

Randy: I may be wrong, but I can´t see any resemblance of Pres on this track. And the "environment" and groove of it doesn´t make Bean a very likely choice, though IMHO there are some Hawk-ish licks here. You and I must agree here, Catesta... to Webster through Hawk! B)

Feliz cumpleaños, Chuck.

I voted for Madrid, but have mixed feelings on this. Being a great sports aficionado, having the Olympic Games here would be a great opportunity to see BIG events live. Besides this, all infrastructures would supposedly get better, and base sport would be relaunched here. Not sure these two things are going to happen. And I´m with you, brownie: the previous three or four years would be a real pain in the ass. The town would be turned upside down... even more than we´re used to!

Lockjaw Davis made a cover version of this tune, and the tenor sound is similar, but track length doesn´t fit!
