Here's tracks #3 & 4...

I'll be curious to see the artists represented, and track listing. I'm in no way a hip-hop aficionado, but if the price was right - I could see enjoying something like this from time to time. Saw on the Kickstarter that it's supposed to be 9 CD's (probably 11-12 hours?) -- which seems like it ought to cut fairly deep and wide.

Just discovered this via YouTube in the last 48 hours. What a date! Not really what I was expecting. Love the wordless female vocals -- well "love" is a little strong -- but I like where their inclusion takes the date to a whole 'nother sort of place (at times). Wish this was on CD (discogs doesn't seem to think it's ever been reissued). And Carter Jefferson really goes for broke. I mean, I knew he could play (from all those dates I have him on with Woody Shaw, primarily, and on a few other things). I think(?) the whole thing is up on YouTube, but not in a playlist (nor from the same user/uploader either). I'll try and post the whole thing here in this thread. Meanwhile, a couple discographical sources... https://www.discogs.com/Albert-Dailey-Renaissance/release/3107183 and... https://jazzdiscography.com/Leaders/DaileyAlbert-ldr.php Date: November 1 & 2, 1977 Location: New York City Label: Catalyst Albert Dailey (ldr), Carter Jefferson (ss, ts), Albert Dailey (p), Cecil McBee (b), Adam Nussbaum, Charli Persip (d), Cheryl Alexander (vocals) a.

Bring on 1982-92! (Volume 3) -- and in my lifetime, please. IMHO, a very underrated period for Neil's output.

Note to self to try and find this. And it's on Blue Note, no less... -- !! https://www.discogs.com/Trio-T%C3%B6yke%C3%A4t-Wake/release/574399

Don't act like you didn't catch them the last time they were at SXSW, at Opal Divine's in Austin!

So interestingly this includes the entire(?) previously unreleased Both Directions session(s?), incl. all(?) the alternates - ? On mobile, or I'd check for myself, but I think I'm seeing the entire thing, and presumably in session order too. Would not have expected to see a reconfigured release of the entire thing like that, quite so quickly. (Sure. repurposing a handful of tracks from Both Directions would not have been at all unexpected (as in some new single or double-disc came 'best of' compilation. But this isn't that, that I can see.)

A great date, and most of this album (rather than really being all ballads), is actually a whole bunch of solidly mid-tempo tunes. No burners, sure, but this is anything but a sleepy, languid date.

Updated, for today's modern hipster...

What the heck was it before? Cuz now I have NO idea what it is.

Assume this would also play standard (Redbook) CD's - ?

Found a hat to go with your overalls...

I remember having owned 4 or 5 different 'classical' CD's of computer-composed music, ones that supposedly mimicked specific composers. Most were solo-piano outings (or sounds that mimicked piano), but I seem to remember a string quartet too maybe? My favorite were several examples of Robo-Gershwin, which sounded very much like many of the trappings of Gershwin, but without enough of the "feel". I think(?) what I had were recordings of computer generated 'performances' -- but I always wondered if 'rendered' with human hands, if they wouldn't have sounded a bit more like the real thing. Interesting stuff (though I'll confess the discs didn't survive the great purge of 3,000+ CD's when we moved from KC to DC almost 8 years ago). I'm pretty sure they all came from this series, on Centaur... https://www.discogs.com/label/470272-CDCM-Computer-Music-Series?page=1&genre=All&limit=500 Bunch of them are here too (though not as many)... http://www.centaurrecords.com/store/albums/electro-acoustic.html?limit=all PS: Seems most of this series (from the discogs link) were from the very late 80's and most of the 90's. I would have gotten the ones I found (used) back in the late 90's, after I moved to Kansas City in '94.

I'd totally forgotten about that service, which I've never used, but I've always had great service from CDJapan - so it doesn't surprise me that they'd have something like that. Once they've found one, do you know if they quote you a price before you're committed to purchasing something they've found for you? -OR- do you have to state a price you'd be willing to pay up to (up front), but then your committed when they find one? (Surely the former, and hopefully not the latter.) I've never tried that, but it sounds like something I should remember/consider for a small number of titles that have eluded me for eons.

This just in! Pretty people, with great lighting, look nice!! We now return you to reality...

I don't think she had any musical experience at all (none). She liked music, but entirely as someone who didn't own any music herself (far as I'm remembering - this was almost 30 years ago). I'm almost positive the jazz she heard me playing all the time was by far the most she'd ever heard jazz. She didn't listen to the radio a ton, but did hang out with lots of different kinds of people, who listened to music some (and not all the same kinds). Come to think of it, I think she liked to use lots of different people she knew in various contexts sort of as conduits for her exposure to art and music, and anything else you can think of. Like somewhere along the line she figured out that one way to get a wide sampling of artistic expression, was just to experience what all sorts of other people sought out and liked. She was a pretty free spirit, I do remember that. Sort of a child of the 60's, but circa the early 90's. She wasn't a stoner (and never drank either, iirc), but she definitely had a little bit of a "hippy"-vibe going for her. I would say she was very interested in becoming at least a little bit informed about everything, and she was kind of passionate about everything, but in a sort of indiscriminate way. She liked things, and didn't like other things, but was NEVER overly critical of anything. She liked making ceramics, iirc. And dabbled in visual art stuff, painting and such. Not highly skilled or anything, but she really loved to just try stuff, and see what it was like.

I've only had a sort of passing familiarity with Sonic Youth over the years (mostly from radio-play on the various alternative rock stations I used to listen to in and around Kansas City back circa 1994-2003 (which is about when I stopped listening to anything by NPR on the radio, which is still the case now). BUT, I've been listening to Pandora a lot more in the last year or two (after just some occasional use 4-6 years ago). And the last 6-9 months I've been listening to a "Gang of Four"-based station that plays Sonic Youth fairly often, and they're also on a post-punk station I spin off Pandora too. No idea what tunes, or which albums they're from - but generally I've been diggin' most of the Sonic Youth that Pandora's been serving up to me. Probably time for me to look for a good compilation, maybe.

Is there anybody else left to mention?

OK, how the hell is this the very first I'm ever hearing of this album? I'm a fairly big fan of bass clarinet (have been for 25 years), and I would have thought I'd crossed paths with this thing at some point. Of course, doesn't help that Herbie Mann isn't a name I see in the bins all that much (not that I'm usually ever looking for him, I'll admit) Gotta check this one out.

Aha. I'm at least familiar with those covers. Never got bitten hard by the Coltrane bug. I've got and had a good smattering of his stuff, but there's way more I've never heard, than that I have (even among the major labor stuff). And I'm the least familiar with every last nook and cranny of his Impulse output, I'll confess.

But only the other two (2) tunes from that album, I assuming, right? -- i.e. "My Favorite Things" and "I Want To Talk About You", which are both from July 7, 1963. (But "Selflessness" comes from Oct 14, 1965 -- or so I'm just seeing -- and had to be reminded, as I'm nowhere near as steeped in Trane, as I am some others.) Have to confess, "Selflessness" is not an album (or album cover design, even), that I'm all that familiar with. Maybe I've seen a copy a gazillion years ago, but I've no memory of it. QUESTION: I'm seeing there was a Japanese-only issue of "Selflessless" (the whole album) back in 1994. But is that the only time any of its three (3) tracks have been issued on CD?

True story: I had a roommate in college one year (off campus) -- not someone who was into jazz specifically (or someone I ever dated). But she did love a lot of different kinds of music. And she liked to classify all the jazz I was listening to at the time into three different general categories; Peanuts jazz (i.e. Charlie Brown), Pink Panther jazz, and Batman jazz (i.e. the theme to the Adam West series). At least a few times week she'd volunteer which category what I had on the stereo fell into.

Gotta admit that I've been oblivious to Lateef's output much later than about 1966 or maybe 1967.
