CD1, loud, to start the year of the dragon!

It did for me (first JSP set), such great music and pretty good sound for music recorded 90 years ago.

Interesting listen, thanks for pointing it out!

Welcome back! Always appreciated Mr Kart’s writing and music recommendations.

Would love to see him again. Had tickets for a show in Paris that was eventually cancelled about a year and a half ago.

Excellent set!

#866 here. Incredible collection, and have only reached CD5, taking my time with this box set. Sound is also impressive.

Just received. Most exciting release for me perhaps since the Coleman Hawkins box set, for the anticipation part. On to listening, and perfect, the week-end is here!

Haha, you're right, this is lucky. The selection at Gibert Joseph in the latin quarter in Paris remains really good, and the employees of the jazz section very enthusiastic, despite the move downstairs and loss of space. The shop was a mainstay during my student years, one could find really good second hand CDs on a tight budget.

Got this through jazzmessengers, should be here next week!

Just started this today. Seen quite a few Fassbinder movies, interested in the social and political context and enjoyed Penman's style in his last collection of essays which was on musicians.

Heard it at the music store (Candid CD reissue) and had to get it. Didn't know of this Giuffre record!

Very sad. Such a fantastic musician!

Sad to read this. RIP.

Was meaning to post this earlier, February 4: Christian Marclay graphic scores interpreted by Jacques Demierre (2009 score), by Noël Akchoté, Julien Eil, John Butcher, Luc Mueller and Noelle Reymond (2016 and 2005), Elaine Mitchener (2020), Alex ABH Hackett (2010). Excellent complement to the really good exhibit at the Modern Art Center in Paris.

Tonight in Paris: Mai Sugimoto (as), Raymond Boni (g), Paul Rogers (b), Anton Hatwich (b) Part of the Bridge project. Percussionnist Camille Emaille as first part.

Benny Goodman - Yale archives vol.1 Jackie McLean quintet feat. René McLean - Dynasty

Got the digital versions of all three on Bandcamp yesterday and listened to Solos. Excellent!

Abdullah Ibrahim, tomorrow at Jazz à la Villette in Paris.

Yes, in the Latin quarter (and I believe in the suburbs too), really nice store.

Interesting, thanks! Also good to see more labels looking into INA recordings.

In the basque region right now (where paternal side is from). Cooking, swimming, occasional hikes, tapas, etc. The local Ravel festival this year celebrates Xenakis' 100th, so will be seeing a concert.

Thank you, I do have access to a University library and hadn't thought of trying to borrow it through this type of inter-city book exchange program.

After 5-6 years without an electric, got a latter period Jacobacci strat model with Schaller pickups (SSH configuration) and a Fender Champ 12 tube amp (red knob) to work again. Very happy with this.
