T.D.

Waldron 2 just arrived. Want to put in a word for the Lester Bowie box. Just 3 discs, only one (5th Power) of which was released under Lester's name (other two by "The Leaders"), seems almost like an afterthought in the series, but damn, the music's excellent.

Not surprised by this. When/where ever big money is involved, scummy behavior will follow. I have to laugh at the colleges distancing themselves from this by throwing non-revenue sports coaches and the like under the bus. Can't believe that the institutions admitted students on recommendation of the coaches and never even bothered to check whether the kids tried out for the teams!

According to Yahoo Sports (in typical Internet reporting w/o direct source): ESPN’s Adam Schefter reports that the Browns are sending their first (17th overall) and a third-round pick (95th overall) in this year’s draft along with safety Jabril Peppers in return for Beckham.

Juventus 3-0 Atletico (agg. 3-2): C. Ronaldo 27', 49', 86' (pen). Just to rub it in for Real.

True. Didn't mean to dis Jackson, who I like, just amazed at the cover resemblance. I knew little about jazz when Body and Soul came out, so never noticed.

Damn. That's freaky.

[Hill Compulsion and Change] Agreed. Kinda surprising how "out" these are, certainly by Blue Note standards and even among the Hill Blue Notes.

Thanks! I noticed Innerconnection (just a short while ago!) on the NB website, thought it looked very interesting, but promptly forgot . I like NoBusiness and own several of their releases, so that looks like the way to go.

Thanks, nice article. Park Ave. Armory was not a music venue back in my NYC concertgoing days. I once heard the "past group with the baritone Thomas Buckner" perform a Roscoe composition at Merkin Concert Hall (Lincoln Center area).

Weird. I still get the 410 error, even using IE (I usually use Chrome). There's a Facebook page last updated in 2012.

Yeah, I'm a dinosaur and dumb-ass, but does MySpace even exist any more? Every link I try returns This myspace.com page can’t be found It may have been moved or deleted. HTTP ERROR 410

Haven't listened to this in ages (for no good reason). Have been revisiting various BS/SN boxes of late.

John Gilmore...Bobby Hutcherson...Richard Davis...yowzah!

RIP. Gielen was also a significant advocate of contemporary music.

Bump. Really enjoying Ted Daniel's playing on the Andrew Cyrille Black Saint box (Metamusicians' Stomp, Special People, The Navigator). Only other thing I've heard him on is Henry Threadgill's excellent Song out of my Trees. Further suggestions welcome.

[BBC Radio 3] Currently listening to Ligeti, Atmospheres + violin cto + piano cto. Freely listenable for 1 month from initial broadcast.

[Andrew Hill Smokestack] Yeah, this one is a real stunner! Hill's playing is tremendous and the unusual ensemble (piano trio + 1 extra bassist) really works well.

Yes, I remember just as you described, but still can't say 100% because I never went back and inspected the site after receiving the "only if we get X number of order" e-mail. So far everything about this box appears confused to me. Waiting for more e-mail.

It's a good set. The trio disc "Strange Serenade" with Alan Silva and Freddie Waits is also a standout. It took me several listens to connect with the other two (solo piano) CDs, but I now enjoy them too!

Strange, I just this minute received a "Mosaic Newsletter" e-mail flogging Francis Wolff prints, no mention of the Mobley.

Inclined to agree. Plus, there's now a lot of speculation about jobs and even entire career fields being vulnerable to AI-related automation. Trades seem much less susceptible to that IMO.
