Oh Yeah!!!! Count me in as well!

Does anyone know if these releases are actually available?

I remember 1975 as a banner year for music: Tonights the Night followed by Zuma in the same year. The dark abyss then the sunshine. According to the "Shakey" bio, Neil was a big Coltrane fan. I think this shows in his intense extended solos. The man has been making honest music for 40 yrs, with all the ups and downs of a real life.

Sent a PM about two of the David Murray's

I was lucky to see Air twice, around '80-81. The first time was in a beautiful chapel on the Yale campus. The setting and acoustics seemed inspiring because they blew the roof off of the place. Threadgill played tenor and bass flute. Just when it seemed that it could not get more intense, they would take it even higher. Incredible interplay. I still have a few photos from the show. Perhaps my fondest musical memory.

While Huteherson definitely gets my vote, a couple of other talented but lesser knows to mention are Jay Hoggard and Bobby Naughton.

The LaRoca Douglas disc has been available recently from Dusty Grooves. I really enjoy Gilmore's playing on this one.

Does anyone know of a source for the Barry Altscuhl disc? I've been looking, but with no luck. Thanks, David
