Yeah, agreed! Though as an ol' yurpeen I don't get to see Adasiewicz and consider Edwards/Noble one of today's prime rhythm sections, so the first night shall hopefully be just as priceless! Have seen Bennink and Schlippenbach (separately) in different contexts, but never yet Kondo! Thanks! Just hope I won't bump into any effin' nazis ... Love Kim Clarke! Long time not heard anything by her, but with Defunkt she was great (only on record for me), and so she was when I saw her live the one time, with a Jimi Hendrix project headed by Christy Doran (g) and Fredy Studer (d), with singer Erika Stucky the fourth member ... quite a fun project, at least in concert it certainly was! (don't know the CD they released)

the Five Spot sides

Haven't bought the Wheeler box yet ... but one not to overlook if you're into some of his freer stylings is "Song for Someone" (psi) - I enjoy that one very, very much!

just printed out my tickets for the Brötzmann anniversary gig in Warsaw, flight on Sunday around noon ... looking forward immensely - the programme is by now somewhat more specific, at least abut the closing sets of the four nights (no music on the first night, but I'll there there nonetheless): ▌06.03.2016, 19:00h » 15 PLN Screening „Rohschnitt Peter Brötzmann” (dir.

wow!

wow, that sounds really bad

jazzmessengers.com - easily recommended, free shipping (and tracked, too, so I usually have to pick it up at the post office, alas) http://www.jazzmessengers.com/en/70776/thad-jones/all-my-yesterdays-debut-1966-recordings-at-vv they have good prices on many labels, Resonance, Xanadu, Pi, Intakt, Steeplechase ... they're selling Mosaic's officially and by agreement with Mosaic (though usually I still order those straight from the label) ... they're also selling the entire euro PD crap, but as at least some of that (Fresh Sound!) is nowadays quite nice to have, with the major's jazz reissue programmes dead or on life-support, some of that is welcome, too ...

Thanks for all your impressions! Ordered mine from Catalonia last night - and from Mr. Sangrey's descriptions, this is going to be all as hot (and as much of a hoot) as I was expecting! Btw, Mr. Sangrey, do you know the Basle 1969 set with Joe Henderson? That one's hilariously fun, too! (isn't there an earlier thread, can't they be merged? or is chaos method here?)

Great news for sure! I think was Jim (who else ) who mentioned after the big Hancock Columbia box that a Cannonball Capitol box would be mighty cool and alike in some respects ... and that this would never happen - too true, I'm afraid, but I love the idea and I'm glad to see more of his late albums making re-appearance!

just got a cancellation notice for the Colbeck I had on order ... including this: "At this time, there is no indication to show whether or not it might be released at a later time in the future." too bad, really!

aka RYM ... though why even bother. But I'm in the love "Dance with Death" camp though generally I feel Hill never quite (but in the best moments almost) reached the heights of the first years again.

Don't think there's a requirement to use emoticons to signalize irony, right?

Hadn't even known he was a musician, but his Hawkins biography is great.

What does he recommend, buy any of the seven other versions readily available?

Prefer "Introducing", Strozier notwithstanding.

Look here:

yup, lots of goodies hidden in the vaults ... re: Parker, unissued ... wondering if it will be some stuff that has just never been out "officially", such as the 1949 jams from Paris?

Good news Joel!

It's been like that for a while, alas. .. but can't it be fixed by a simple cut/replace operation? I assume something in the url structure has changed during the update. This would need to be done by someone who can actually display the bb-code and copy it into any text editor ... alas we never got that display option back after the upgrade.

Thanks, interesting for sure!

Belated best wishes, Mike!

Congrats, John!

Is that on vinyl? Or was it ever on CD as well?

if at least they had the decency to include the Tyrone Washington album ...

as recommended by soulpope: very enjoyable indeed
