We never see these amounts of snow in the Netherlands. We also got the tempering influence of the warmer North Sea. Though I’m not looking for extremes like these, I really miss some more winter like weather here sometimes. The winter mostly feels like an extended autumn most of the times with boring grey rainy days.

Here's me hoping Ravi has a suprise for us....

Oh yes Kevin we all feel very sorry for you being on a cruise with tropical temperatures, mixed drinks and live jazz music. Poor you! 🤪 But seriously, I hope you have dug your way into your house 😬

Have you packed all your cds/vinyl carefully/secure/safely? That's all that matters Good luck moving there.

I love my boxed sets but must say I never listen to a complete boxed set: mostly individual discs. Boxed sets must be pieces of art to me that really distinct in artwork or liners. If it's just music only in chronological order I prefer the seperate sessions. I also like if if they compile music that's pretty hard to obtain. The Byard Lancaster set by Souffle Continu is an example of an essential boxed set I must say. I havent ripped a cd since streaming is avaible. The places where I stream I don't play much jazz: in the gym and in the car. Jazz doesn't work in the gym for me and my car has awful sound for jazz music. I play jazz at home and i'd prefer to pick out a cd or an lp instead of playing digital files from my computer.

RIP!

Yes Masabumi Kikuchi on piano, Hiroshi Marakumi on drums and Masahiko Togashi on drums. It’s an earlier seventies recording when Peacock lived in Japan. Highly recommended

Max Roach Quartet Live in Amsterdam with Billy Harper Cecil Bridgewater and Reggie Workman. This music should be played loud!

It’s great indeed 🥰

after being pleasantly surprised by the excellent Gayle set and Clifford’s recommendation I decided I needed to get this one as well. Great stuff.

Sounds like an excellent run 😇

What a weird reply to such an honest customer. Like getting punishment for good behavior. I’d keep it and sell it to somebody in the States

Great record and great reissues. I already have an lovely sounding 70’s repress. I was hoping for Canyon Lady or Black is the Colour

I am a huge Jackie McLean fan and never understood why this one has such bad rep. Love it and I especially think his style blends excellent with Rashied Ali’s drumming.
