I've never heard a Roxy Music album, so I sort of feel like I shouldn't be posting in this thread, but I went to AMG to read up on them and came across this: Brian Peter George St. Baptiste de la Salle Eno now that is one hellof a name! talk about parents being unable to make up their minds and going with thir five favorite choices...

It might be quicker if I were to ask you who you don't know in the rock world.

my sister told me about interpol quite a while ago, before their album came out. she used to work with the brother of one of the members. It is a really enjoyable album.

first I would have you talk with these guys: and then them: but, in the end, listening to this album should make it all clear:

Rooster Ties - what is your new avatar? The one that replaced the Osby...I like it a lot! mine is a photo of Hamid Drake live at last year's Vision Fest.

when I first bought Wayne Shorter's Ju Ju I played it four or five times back to back. It was my first introduction to his work as a leader and I was blown away.

Lee Konitz, Don Friedman & Attila Zoller - Thingin Cecil Taylor - Indent Reid Anderson - Dirty Show Tunes Chucho Valdes - Solo Piano

some more: Jesus Lizard ( while they were on Touch & Go) Man...or Astroman? - on e of my favorite bands to see live, a few years back. Great surf music and a great sense of humor.

Thanks for the recommendations! up now: Dollar Brand - African Piano Schlippenbach Trio - Pakistani Pomade

Mny - I just grabbed a copy of this that a fellow board member had for sale. I am looking forward to hearing it!

I just came across an example of this. The review of Keith Tippett's Mujician III (August Air), by Thom Jurek, is a rave review, using phrases like "work of genius" and "perhaps most brilliant" yet only giving the album two stars. Makes no sense.

I'll probably keep remembering more and having to use the "edit" function but here I go, off the top of my head: Unwound Shellac Fugazi Slint Mogwai Tortoise Godspeed You Black Emperor! Stereolab Yo La Tengo Spiritualized Bardo Pond Alice Donut

It took me a very long time to track down a copy of this disc, for some reason. It was well worth the wait! I got it mainly for Hamid, but have really been digging Bergman's work on this disc. It is my first exposure to him...any recommendations for where to go next? Up next - Cecil Taylor - The Willisau Concert

today: Duke Ellington - And His Mother Called Him Bill Johnny Hartman - I Just Dropped By To Say Hello Miles Davis - The Complete Birth of the Cool The Flaming Lips - In A Priest Driven Ambulance The Flaming Lips - Providing Needles for Your Balloons Mercury Rev - Yerself Is Steam Drive Like Jehu - Yank Crime Peter Kowald - Touch The Earth - Break the Shells Medeski, Martin & Wood - Electric Tonic

sure, not a problem! done.

I hadn't heard anything but your post prompted me to take a look at his website: "Secondly I am discussion with Hat Hut records regarding the re-release of all four of the Hat Hut recordings of the Quintet as box set (Special Detail, Down to the Wire, Demon Chaser, and The Marmalade King)!!! " no clues as to a definitive date,etc... still, great news!

Organissimo question on emusic I did not post the question...I wonder if it was someone off of this board?

$37.35 w/ 11 hours left. out of my league.

also, this site has it for sale: http://www.felmay.it/dischi.php3 but has a 2 disc minimum on orders. I have no idea how reliable they are.

I don't know how good your Italian is, but I found this article on the Italian AAJ site: ROSCOE MITCHELL & The Note Factory,"Bad Guys" - CD live E' un grande onore per Il Manifesto Cd presentare l'album live di Roscoe Mitchell and The Note Factory. Il sassofonista statunitense, figura storica del jazz e fondatore degli Art Ensemble Of Chicago, con "Bad Guys" fissa un momento della tourneé italiana 2000-2001 Tra queste acclamate esibizioni, è stata scelta quella di Fano, svoltasi presso la suggestiva atmosfera della "Corte Malatestiana", per testimoniare la forza innovativa e la portata artistica di un musicista sempre orientato alla ricerca di nuove strade espressive del jazz e della musica nera. Il concerto, ripreso nella sua versione quasi integrale, testimonia ancora una volta la genialità del lavoro di Roscoe Mitchell, per l'occasione in compagnia di altri grandi e soprattutto del compositore Stephen Rush, al suo esordio, che firma due brani molto importanti. La band che suona nel cd THE BAD GUYS: ROSCOE MITCHELL - sax WADADA LEO SMITH - tromba MATTHEW SHIPP - piano CRAIG TABORN - piano SPENCER BAREFIELD - chitarra JARIBU SHAHID - basso HARRISON BANK HEAD - batteria TANI TABAL - contrabbasso GERARD CLEAVER - batteria Il cd è in vendita in tutte le librerie del circuito FELTRINELLI e IL LIBRACCIO, nei punti vendita della catena RICORDI MEDIA STORES e nei migliori negozi di dischi e librerie al costo di 8,00 Euro. pressoff@bigtimeweb.it promozione@bigtimeweb.it It might be worth writing to one of these email addresses and seeing if they can direct you to a copy. Maybe writing to Jazzos would work, although they do not have the disc listed yet.

agreed on the ONJQ live disc. Out of curiosity, what was the rest of your list like? today: Baikida Carroll - The Door of the Cage The Flaming Lips - Yoshimi Battles the Pink Robots Dollar Brand - African Piano The Bad Plus Stereolab - Peng! Jim Pepper - Comin' and Goin' Borah Bergman / Hamid Drake - Reflections on Ornette Coleman

Lineup: Andrew Hill, piano Greg Tardy, tenor sax and clarinet John Hebert, bass Nasheet Waits, drums I'll be seeing them in about 2 weeks. Let us know how the show is!

Johnny's Corner Song will be one of my next purchases as soon as I am buying music again. (I just got a big order in and need to chill out for a little while) I have heard great things about this disc and the version of "Toombow" in particular.

John - I would like to take you up on your offer, until such time as I can locate an original copy of each. Drop me a line and we can work out the details. You can pick up the new disc directly from Gerry on his website Gerry Hemingway $15 plus shipping. I have heard good reviews from a few people who already have this disc. I'll probably be picking it up sooner rather than later.

I've looked everywhere I can think of and have had no luck tracking down copies of any of these discs. I would love to be able to buy realistically priced copies, if possible, otherwise would be happy with cdr burns. I have many oop discs I would be willing to tradcopies of in return. The four titles I am looking for are: Special Detail Down to the Wire Demon Chaser Marmalade King thanks for any help!
