7/4

BTW: Mountain is a poor man's Cream. They owe it all to them.

I went to see them in their heyday, someone else paid for the ticket. I survived by digging the timbre of the synths. Analog heaven! But the band sucked.

Here's a John Coltrance discography. Working your way forward is the best way to check him out. Check out First Meditations too.

Cha cha cha?

And then there was The silliest jazz album covers ever thread.

What are you listening to now? didn't start that way, but ended up like that.

Cool interview.

I have the Holland-Phillips, Pharoah and the Music Improv Co. All fine disks.

Anthony Braxton? I have to check my collection...

Where about do you live? Here in South Carolina there are millions this year. When they all start singing at one time it is one long sound throughout the day. New Jersey. There's reports of them an hour south of here.

And I haven't even heard or seen one yet.

I don't know if I can wait that long. Fortunately I just received a nice shippment yesterday from CD Universe that I'm checking out this weekend. That should keep me happy for a week or so.

Eric Dolphy, indeed. Hearing him on Coltrane's Village Vanguard recordings was my introduction to the instrument (as well as Dolphy himself). I love the sound he gets out of that thing... Nothing else quite like it. Have you heard his solo rendition of "God Bless The Child"? Stunning... Yes. And yes to Dolphy on the VV box (Naima!).

Eric Dolphy!

If you were really creative, you would have taken ten posts instead of one to make your point.

"it's not fair that you will soon pass me in the post count with crap like this!" - disgruntled Organissimo poster.

"he has nothing better to do with his time. off with his head." - some twit.

It's distracting.

"clearly the modern world has to take notice of this internet tallent. with a world upset with uncertanty, 7/4 is on the cutting edge of tommorow." W.T.F. Johnson, scholar.

"notice the uplifting ascent through the prime series, to the septimal prime limit and then back down to one, as if the heavens descended to earth like a lofty PBS commentary and a continental accent. priceless." - E. Forward, internet blog.
