    I've been mostly underwhelmed by the series (though the Rollins Village Vanguard set was great), but this is a good list. Particularly excited to see Big John Patton, Larry Young and Andrew Hill titles. Hopefully, the latter doesn't have the warbling piano issue that the Black Fire Tone Poet had.

    According to Ralph Towner, the band showed up at the photo shoot to find Elvin passed out after a bender. "So, what do they do? They put this picture of the four of us on the cover and put this big smiling picture of Elvin’s face on it like a sticker glued on top with these drumsticks around it. The art director was so bad."

    Track 4 is from André Jolivet’s Pastorales de Noël. Nice post-Debussy vibe. I have no idea who is playing but my wild guess is it’s members of Ornette Coleman’s one-time backup band, the Philadelphia Wind Quintet, plus Marilyn Costello on harp.

    Track 3 is Carla Bley, Steve Swallow and Andy Sheppard, “Beautiful Telephones II”

    Sad news. He brought such great knowledge to the board, often from an eyewitness perspecitive. RIP.

    I loved #3, too. The saxophonist sounded familiar in more of a Lennart Aberg way rather than a Jan Garbarek way and I didn't even notice the bass at first. My initial thought was Europeans, JAPO not ECM, and a whole "we once played with George Russell" vibe. JSngry's hint tells me I got the Russell connection right, but, if this is what I think it is, the more well-known pianist and bassist were a surprise to me.

    RIP. Her astute notes to Coltrane Jazz are my favourite liner notes on a Coltrane LP. Also one heck of a pianist. I have the LP and it's definitely her, she's in the credits.

    The Sam Rivers sessionography references an audience recording of an afternoon performance from the day before. No idea if it was professionally recorded. Great news that Second Act of A may be getting reissued--the interplay between Taylor and Cyrille on that set is stunning.

    Schubert, String Quintet, great two cello piece with Pablo Casals and Sandor Vegh's quartet.

    Not a court ruling, but law. There are 90 countries that have artist’s resale right legislation guaranteeing artists will earn a share from the resale of their work, including European Union countries, but not the US of A. Canada talks about it a lot, but no law yet.

    I found an LP in good shape. While I think the 1969 version has a little more gusto, the original is fascinating hearing the quartet navigate this strange new sound world--a world which had the Stanley Quarter fleeing from. I enjoyed the Schuman, too--not a masterpiece and not always compelling, until it suddenly is! Great ending, too.

    Original is an excellent album--glad to see it's being reissued.
