We're making good progress nationally in general, but there is disparity among the states. Also, we're dealing with a robust population of deniers and skeptics, so that's also a factor.
Our library has the same dates as Dub Modal's, alas. I wonder if that reflects a gap in what the PC has made available. Perhaps there was even a fire or something similar at some point? Sorry, Dan.
The Ehrlich dates are extremely good, as is Rothenberg's "Powerlines," Robert Dick's "Third Stone from the Sun," ROVA's "No Favorites," Varner's "The Window Up Above," and Malaby's "Paloma Recio." Really strong catalog, and that's just jazz stuff.
DIW certainly had range. There's a great Marc Ribot solo album, Don't Fool Me (I think that's the title). The debut from What We Live. The early Masada records.
As for JMT, I love that Geri Allen too but I think of Tim Berne, Paul Motian, and Herb Robertson above all. Great string of releases from them all.
Bummed to hear about Eno too.
Hear you, ejp626. The discrediting of expertise over the last several decades has made much of this foreseeable. Any minor crack in what might otherwise be eternal ontological certitude is interpreted as "Fauci doesn't know everything."
Not an informed scientist, but the several articles I've scanned suggest that as of now there's no evidence that it's more deadly or vaccine resistant.
