  1. Same here. Ordered it a moment too late during the last sale. Really hope it will come back. Would also get Clifford Jordan in priority. There is also a japanese edition of In The World which seems still available.
  2. Just came back from seeing Charles Gayle, Giovanni Barcella and Manolo Cabras: just great! I also brought home the record of the three "Live in Belgium" on el Negocito.
  3. Ya it should be a good place, I'll have to go back! I was wondering if it was regular radio at jazz hours (7 to 8) or webradio. But there is another grocery shop nearby were one of the cashiers plays great hip hop and discusses about Pharoah Sanders!
  4. Will get this, hopefully soon! I didn't know about the Faust soundtrack! Umea° and Strings should be great. Anybody to comment on the first CD, Big Chunks? Angoulême 1980 (CD 7) was just released last year on Fou records as a double CD, I have it in my hands right now and it is the complete concert, has a few tracks more.
  5. I heard a track from this ... from the radio in a grocery store while buying fruit, it was really good!!!
  6. Disc 5 - Captain Beefheart & his Magic Band Grow Fins [1969-82]
  7. Thanks for the notice, will stream this!
  8. The loud glitch on the first track of Desmond's easy living is also really annoying, it's in the midst of Jim Hall's relatively quiet solo.
  9. I never saw Chuck Berry live, but I was thinking of concerts like this one:
  10. Great tunes, incredible stage presence and engagement often finishing concerts in full sweat! The excitement while listening is still complete.
  11. Gérard Terronès, founder of the Futura and Marge labels has died today according to various french media. Libération has already released an article here : http://next.liberation.fr/musique/2017/03/17/gerard-terrones-un-libertaire-du-jazz-s-en-va_1556421 The man with the hat still organized monthly concerts at the Java club, a historic club where Edith Piaf used to sing. I remember a memorable afternoon and evening of free concerts there for Jacques Thollot's passing. He was a long-time member of the Anarchist Federation and signed his letters "Fraternité". Certainly a singular personality in this milieu. I tip my hat to him!
  12. Tonight: Noël Akchoté KCS project NA with Mary Halvorson, Joachim Badenhorst, Brad Jones, Han Bennink At Dynamo, Banlieues Bleues festival, Pantin (Paris)
  13. Thanks for the tip!
  14. ^^ I would like to! I didn't get this when the two were issued as one CD. Nate Chinen has written an obituary here: http://wbgo.org/post/misha-mengelberg-influential-dutch-pianist-composer-behind-icp-orchestra-dies-81
  15. I wasn't aware of Averty but he really seemed like an interesting person. Was there really a time when French TV was inspired and inspiring?
  16. Went to Louis Malle's Le Souffle au coeur (Murmur of the Heart, 1970) at French Cinematheque last night in presence of main actor, then 15 year old, Benoît Ferreux. Great great movie and Charlie Parker soundtrack!
  17. Very sad the whole day. A genius as mentioned. Never had the chance to see him live, and hoping some ICP records will become available again. I have tickets to see Han Bennink in a Noël Akchoté formation next tuesday and I can imagine there will be a kind of homage given there. A 1996 interview: http://www.paristransatlantic.com/magazine/interviews/mengelberg.html
  18. Very sad to have another great member of this generation going away. On this documentary, is it there were Archie Shepp gives a call from Paris to his friend during the interview? I will listen. Now listening to Turrentine's Look Out!
  19. Strong connection for Brahms who played the instrument and also Richard Strauss (the two horn concertos), son of a horn player. For reference there is a Wikipedia list of classical compositions for the instrument: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_compositions_for_horn For XXth century, I would try Ligeti's trio for Violin, horn and piano -- it is given here in Paris soon and I would like to see it if I can get a ticket.
  20. Was told that the James P. Johnson was on backorder.
  21. Just received from the last sale, only listened to CD1 and read the notes yet but very happy to have this set!
  22. Ordered the Classic James P. Johnson sessions and Boogie Woogie and Blues piano Select.
  23. The title which mentions an "ending of his recording career" is largely exaggerated if one reads the text but Shipp still talks about slowing down... http://observer.com/2017/02/jazz-pianist-matthew-shipp-interview-piano-song/ Very admirative of his playing and hoping this is only a temporary phase.
  24. Yes, "L'étau - Choses clandestines", great one! With Keith Tippett and Paul Rogers.
