Simularryially:

I have a history of seeing similarities in album covers that maybe don't exist. But there they are anyway.

A splice or two on an old tape like that wouldn't surprise me at all. But it's common courtesy to make note of it in the annotation. But the disc itself is playing fine.

I got mine from Berkshire/BRO a few years ago.

I can read it online. But I do have a copy of We Speak Etruscan, played it just a few days ago, in fact. Held my attention!

For some reason, that looks like an earlyish Milestone cover? Sublinal, maybe?

Lee Hyla!?!?!!

All things being equal, Billy Higgins.

My tracks 6 & 7 are playing just fine, although I think there's a splice or two towards the end of the piano solo on #7? Otherwise, no problems.

Well hell, if I'm going to listen to them do it (and I am, I picked that box up last month, haven't gotten it open yet), then I imagine I should get the 60s Julliard set of them doing it as well. Maybe too many Young Americans at one time, but oh well about that... it's not like you can over-hear that stuff, especially the Late ones...

Hindemith was cool.

Doesn't matter. I can't type, period.

Can't say that I feel "good" about going 1-2 against the Dodgers, but all three games were super tight and both deGrin and Mahle showed ace form. No Ohtani, so that, but our bats still haven't arrived from the Big Boy factory, so that too. Still not sure if this team is Teaser or Pleaser, but as they say:

Yeah, interactions with the host are both encouraged and appreciated. It's fun!

I envy people who can type well.

Just for the record, you don't have to do that, but most people do and everybody's happy when they do. 👁️‍🗨️🤠🤩

Hello! Happy to get the music, but what good is documentation that isn't really documentation?

Glad to find out that I was unable to to attend instead of having attended and have now forgotten it. One never knows these days... Pulled We Speak Etruscan for a round of Keep Or Kull, and it's keep. Produced by Marty Ehrlich, which I had not noticed until tonight. Who knew?!?!

One of many amusing evolutions of the Wyn Tang Clan was to watch how the claims went from Jazz Is Black Music That Anybody Can Learn To Play to Jazz Is American Music That People Play All Over The World and next thing you know, Wynton is making a record with Willie Nelson because Jazz and Country both came out of Blues.which is the Real American music etc etc etc. It is all such simplified half- truths that sucked up so much oxygen and impeded so much natural/potential evolutions... Does anybody in the US dig Heinz Sauer? Other than that he was on that ECM record of George Adams'? Adams later expressed ..reservations about that record, but because of Eicher's controlling tendencies, not because of any of the players. But yet and still: A great 21st Century ECM record. Quite great.

I suspect there was a bit of racial paranoia underlying it all, both cultures worrying about being subsumed by the other and some showing their worries more overtly than others. I do think that there are schools of "jazz" all over the world that seem to pride themselves on the eradication of any Black Accents at all, and all I can say about that is...please don't run into me, because I m not looking where you're going. And same for the redundification of those anywhere who willfully shut out any outside currents in the interest of "purity". Do all the work you want, but when you stop work, where do you live?
