We have a small percentage of things in common. I'll recommend the five volume Shelly Manne Live at the Blackhawk to you. You do have a tendency to unnecessarily insult those who have different tastes. I'm very much enjoying Billy Harper's Croquet Ballet at the moment. Seeing Max Roach's group play live three times in the seventies are among my lifetime musical highlights. Clearly they produced enjoyable music, because I enjoyed it. It's clear from your comments that you would not have. Keep praising what you find beauty in, but minimize the insults to me and the musicians I love and we'll all get along just fine.

Rarity aside, I think the Columbias are Handy's finest work. The live remakes from 2000 were quite good also. Too bad New View will be omitted from this Select.

Even with those additions we're only up to 485. A search on the old BlackSaint site gave me 443 Soul Note plus 212 Black Saint for a total of 655.

I bypassed this on eMusic where there was no mention of players, but you prompted me to Google, and the players are worth mentioning: David Weiss, Greg Tardy, Xavier Davis, Dwayne Burno and Nasheet Waits I am familiar with, while Myron Walden, James Farnsworth, Jimmy Greene and Dave Rickenburg are new to me. Added it to my Save For Later. Two earlier albums are listed.

Haven't heard it yet, but ... That is Soooooooooooooo not an ECM cover!! Could be a good thing?

Herb Bushler recorded with that band, could it be him?

Just dropped on eMusic. I may check it out in a month or two, put it on my growing Save For Later stash.

Here's additions found by checking the nottom of J. H. Deeley's lists against the OmniTone site. Black Saint 120198 - John Lindberg Ensemble: The Catbird Sings Soul Note 121308 - Bill Dixon: Papyrus, Volume 1 121318 - Frank Kimbrough: Noumena 121322 - Borah Bergman/Oliver Lake: A New Organization 121333 - Herbie Nichols Project: Doctor Cyclops' Dream 121338 - Bill Dixon: Papyrus, Volume 2 121341 - Gianluigi Trovesi: Around Small Fairy Tales 121371 - Gebhard Ullmann: Kreuzberg Park East 121487 - Steve Lacy/Mal Waldron: Communique

I found out you are allowed to have a second account as long as you use a second email address, so I grabbed a 300/month second acount to be ready for today. It's down below 30 and I have about 55 Black Saint/Soul Note titles downloaded. My first priority was to grab all the Jimmy Lyons and I'm listening to Wee Sneezawee as we speak. About half of the catalog is up and the rest will arrive tomorrow. My first listen was the track Deep and Mellow by Beaver Harris' 360 Degree Music Experience, then First String by String Trio of New York. I have literally wanted some of these titles for thirty years.

Apparently confirmed by Yancey, an eMusic employee. Can't wait.

I did my search and we don't seem to have ever had a Bruce Cockburn thread, so here it is. eMusic has posted 18 albums from the first two thirds of his career. Cockburn's music is mystical and mysterious, with occasional outbursts of political outrage in his later work. He occasional sings about Christianity but not in a way that makes this Doubting Thomas uncomfortable. The acoustic guitar textures occasionaly remind me of Oregon in their beauty and flow. One of the top ten tracks all time for me is the version of Joy Will Find a Way on the live Circles in the Stream. The addition of vibes gives the song a very appropriate jazzy and otherworldly feel. It's simply one of the most beautiful things I have ever heard. The whole album is solid and highly recommended. I plan to check out Humans next based on strong recommendations on the eMusic message board and allmusic. I have heard In the Falling Dark and Stealing Fire and enjoy them.

I had a cassette of Renee Rosnes Blue Note debut and loved it. Just ordered a CD upgrade of the Blue Note. Also noticed that eMusic has an album called Lexicon br Todd Coolman which features Rosnes and Henderson.

If you are not allergic to seventies singer songwriters, I highly recommend Circles in the Stream by Bruce Cockburn. The vibes enhanced version of Joy WIll Find a Way is one of my all time top ten tracks. Rabih Abou-Khalil and Abdullah Ibrahim have dropped in quantity from Enja. Eight days to the likely Black Saint/Soul Note bounty.

Always important to fix a good!

Up due to current interest

A couple of interesting sideman names: Middy Middleton is on a couple of Odean Pope Saxophone Choir albums. I hadn't heard that name since the mid 70s at WRTI where we had a tape of Up From the Cellar, Down From the Attic, his great band with Michael Ray. James Carter and Carl Grubbs pop up on Julius Hemphill dates. Jay Hoggard on a Chico Freeman Quartet date.

Looking forward to Ed Blackwell - Walls Bridges Dewey Redman plays Take The A Train is something I've got to hear. Larry Ochs and Drumming Core - The Neon Truth The old BN board had a long interesting and slightly egotistical top 10 post and this was #1, been curious ever since. Cyrille, Lee, Lyons - Nuba

Perusing the online catalog I see that I already own and enjoy George Adams - Hand To Hand and Muhal Richard Abrams - The Hearinga Suite. Has anybody heard the Jeff Palmers?

The rest of my top ten is really a wish lsit Air - Live Air Air - Air Mail Geri Allen - Etudes Ran Blake - Short Life of Barbara Monk Walt Dickerson - Life Rays (already have and love) 6 titles by Jimmy Lyons 5 titles by Andrew Hill 16 titles by Mal Waldron

eMusic announced "A jazz motherlode will arrive 11/18" and it's likely to be Black Saint/Soul Note. So let's have some top ten Black Saint/Soul Note lists to get our engines running. I have very few, but the very first Black Saint, Billy Harper - Black Saint would certainly top my list. The David Murray's are all already available on eMusic, but that's no reason to exclude them.

Robert von Bahr, the boss at BIS records has contributed to the message boards at eMusic for several months now. He recently shared the news that he has some serious health challenges ahead and asked people to listen to some Bach and Aho for him. His label is the number one documentor of the works of Kalevi Aho. Most of these are available on eMusic and I'll suggest the 12th Symphony (Luosto), and the pairing of the Symphonic Dances and 11th Symphony as starting points. I started with the disk of the Tuba and Contrabassoon Concerti, but took to the Luosto much more quickly. Best wishes to Robert von Bahr, and let's listen to and talk some Aho.

Yes, I'm enjoying both sets. The track selections bring out the virtues of Jagger/Richards as melodists. The vocals are not traditional jazz, but are of a high level and match singer and song well. There's plenty of post-bop instrumental interplay. Ries, Larry Goldings and Bill Frisell provide plenty of musucal highlights. Once I set aside my jazz purist concerns, I found a lot to like. And that includes every note sung by Norah Jones.

The release of Stones World and the availability of both titles on eMusic has me curious to hear any impressions of either of these albums. All I really know is that up and coming saxman gets R&R gig and follows up with albums of compositions by his employers. Somebody said the first one didn't suck, might have been a PR guy. Norah Jones and other vocalists are involved, so this isn't a purely straight ahead jazz conception. The second one makes a point of world music collaborators and worldwide recording locations. My curiosity (and my recent booster card acquisition) will push me over the edge soon.
