Was VIK some kind of low-price sub of RCA's? Have to confess that Dockery (and De Brest) and - to a lesser extent also Bill Hardman - never really clicked with me ... I do enjoy all those "second edition" Messengers albums, the best of them are up with the best of Blakey's albums for sure, McLean was almost always an interesting voice, even in those early years ... and wherever Griffin turns up, I want to hear it! Guess I need to re-visit some of those albums again soon. Has the Cadet album ever been on CD?

That's the older edition. Reissue on Joe Haider's label looks like this:

Who is number 6, or does one count twice? Anyway, good luck with this Allen, I'll be in in a few days. I've really enjoyed the "Diaspora" series, have played it four times by now (a couple of discs more often than that), it's indeed a big amount of music to digest (and I'm afraid I didn't get that far with "Mulatto Field Radio" yet, need to dig that one up again as well). And it's not exactly easy music to digest, either -- but it's very much worth ones time and attention!

love what I've heard of the series by La Venexiana - I've got the single releases actually, and just about when I had them all, the box came out, costing about as much (or little) as the three-disc Ottavo libro alone - so I'd say just get that box, take all the time you need, and maybe some by Concerto Italiano to have comparison (fifth and sixth books maybe? regarding their sixth, I once read somewhere that their earlier recording, done in 1992 and released by Arcana, was superior to the later naïve recording, so I got that earlier one used, certainly a nice disc, but I don't know the naïve recording, got the second and fifth there, the later actually on Opus 111, but that belongs to/was bought by naïve or something) you can also check out Les Arts Florissants under Paul Agnew, they did three discs of excerpts only though (I have one of them only, Vol. 2 / Mantova) re Consort of Musicke I guess I tend to agree, but then it was a disc of their recordings that made me curious enough to go for more, so it's not all bad ...

Just got "Ask a Woman Who Knows" (Japanese edition, +1, 14 tracks, the bonus one is a very nice one by Bob Dorough, "I've Got Just About Everything") - it's indeed a most tasteful record, maybe a tad too tasteful, but time will tell about that ... anyway, thanks again for the recommendation! Btw, Broadbent only arranged two (I think, reading the credits is a drag) of the songs, most are by Rob Mounsey (new name to me), three or four (including the Dorough track) by John Clayton.

related (Weiss w/Clifford Jordan), just in case:

Schwaller is pretty good, but I don't think I've heard him so early on (except with the early Vienna Art Orchestra).

My copies of the two Brubeck albums recently arrived, haven't played 'em yet. Also catching up on the "We Remember Poo" series and a few more Kikuchi items (a least one from the King series and I think one from the East Wind series) - these seem to be OOP (released in October, OOP when I wanted to order them from cdjapan after x-mas ... cost me some more going via various marketplace vendors) - anyway, here's a link: http://www.discogs.com/label/909924-We-Remember-Poo

I guess I'll get one from here: http://www.cdjapan.co.jp/product/UICY-77705

Need to re-listen, guess I have the same edition Chuck has ... never warmed to it as much as to some of the Impulse! albums of his, but I still remember it as very good. Anyway, the CD reissues were nice enough while they lasted - the entire Mangelseorff and Hans Koller were brought back, some mighty fine Rolf Kühn (that mini-series went beyond MPS of course!), and Promising Music took care of tome of the better free-ish albums, including "Fly Fly Fly Fly Fly" and the Tchicai one ... still, the label has so many treasures and browsing through these digital releases that's evident once more ... at least I managed to get the Solals (or most of them) on vinyl by now.

will definitely try and get the SME and the Colbeck - guess a pre-order is on order the Weston was reissued a while ago on a fine twofer with the other album from the same sessions/line-up: http://www.discogs.com/Randy-Weston-Randy-Westons-African-Rhythms/release/5190944

Pretty decent, all in all. Have some posts been deleted here?

Very, very sad! This hits me hard.

Yeah, the pairing is odd and the Bley set would have deserved release in its entirety for sure (hadn't heard (any of) the Globe Unity set before, don't know if there's more but I reckon there is) ... but I still had to get that LP, wasn't exactly cheap!

Oh, sorry, had actually read that post yesterday but had already forgotten again ... done ordered a copy!

Anyone can recommend me anything really good by her? All I heard so far (mostly that kitsch album dedicated to her father's music) was way too much on the kitsch side of things.

They were very good here in november ... and I made a huge gaffe afterwards ... after their set, it was Craig Taborn solo and he really smashed the whole world to pieces and then rebuilt it again ... second stellar piano solo set this year, after Alexander Hawkins' great solo set in spring at the same venue (on a different piano ... methinks Alex got the better one, but it didn't matter, both were rented (baby) grands and probably both in great condition) ... anyway, I had to shake hands and thank Taborn for his amazing performance, and he's there with Rainey/Laubrock sipping on a drink ... so somehone (I honestly don't remember if it was Taborn or Rainey) made a remark about the first set of the evening (the Rainey trio's) ... and dumbfounded (it's not so easy to be smartass in a foreign language and in real time!) I said something like "yours was fine, too" - really made a fool of myself there but didn't really try to make it worse by going on taking nonsense Anyway, it was a most invigorating set, Halvorson was energized (she isn't always, I've seen her a few times by now and at least once she was tired in a way that is showed ... music was still fine, but different. Anyway, enjoyed her and Laubrock's performance an awful lot, and Rainey was always right behind them, shading and offering support and still hitting it hard without ever being an intruder or being loud or anything - very intense stuff!

I chose to ignore that

Xept I feel pissed on by Sony .... got the big Bach box and then many of the latest Gould Collection or however it was called ... and then shortly after they bring out this new box with new remastering. Guess that's capitalism and free markets and stuff, but it's also disrepect for those that keep it going.

the latest bunch was first mentioned here: I've since bought the Blake and the Mitchell ones ... I think I enjoy the Blake more - both were mostly new to me (I've got one of the Blake albums on vinyl, didn't know any of the Mitchell leader albums)

Yup, cost me 28$. It's a digipack the size of a jewel case, you only get a pdf of the booklet (online or on disc one). And it took arpund three weeks to make it here so they seem to have found a cheap way to send it.
