    My only source has been that discogs link, so can't say.

    They're all cool. The Brothers is probably my favorite, followed by

    Can't go wrong with the Don Martin cover Prestiges.

    +1...no, I didn't recognize him on #8.

    The last scene's song and dance routine in Scout uniforms / short pants totally creeped me out...didn't make it through to the lean.

    +1 Looking at these kinds of things through modern eyes can be pretty damn creepy. Tastes differ, but I wouldn't invest a full hour. Pretty impressive personnel, though. Arthur Hill became a big-time Hollywood director, Elaine Stritch was a Broadway legend, etc.

    Wild guess, is Charlie Mariano involved with #6? Saxophone + Eastern sounds + electronics, seems possible.

    Type in the characters inside the quotes: ":tup" Testing... ...it works.

    Thinking a lot about #6...some hints of "modern classical" in places. Early on it sounds a bit like Terry Riley but less microtonal. Almost like Terry Riley meets somebody like the ICP. Then the electronics totally threw me. Terry Riley meets MEV? Impossible. It does sound rather like MEV (I have the MEV 40 New World box), but that can't be right. Which is to say I don't have a clue, but it sure is interesting.

    So #7 is track 7 from this (tinyurl to avoid spoiler since I sleuthed rather than identified): https://tinyurl.com/2s48kb39

    Earlier this year, March iirc, wasn't Bandcamp acquired by Epic Games (indirectly Tencent?). People were speculating that might affect Bandcamp's payout rate, but I never heard anything further.

    New York Art Quartet on #7? I do have a couple of recordings by them...Alan Silva also comes to mind, but less likely IMO.

    Nice selection, thanks, going to take some thought. Not expert on the B3 repertoire, good tunes but I'm unlikely to identify them. Really enjoy #4 and #6 on first listen. Sonny Blount vaguely comes to mind for #5, but will have to search the collection. Sound quality suggests a bootleg. Feel like I should know #7, but definitely don't own a recording. Will go through the program again later this weekend

    Louis Hayes and Peter Erskine.

    That (bolded). IMO of course, how people spend their discretionary income is their decision. I used to read Stereophile, but threw in the towel about 20 years ago when I decided that (one of their big columnists at the time) Jonathan Scull's constant touting of "Shun Mook resonators" was absurd rather than funny.

    Sorry, I mistyped (edited above). My MS-14 Dexter is numbered, MS-16 Hill not. MS-20 Tolliver numbered, later MS- unnumbered. So maybe they pressed some extra Hills? Or just forgot to number some of the release. I don't really care, never paid much attention to the issue.
  17. T.D.
    Two-thirds (6 of 9) of the Selects I own are numbered. I thought it'd depend on the MS- number of the series (early MS- being numbered), but not strictly: Andrew Hill (MS-16) isn't numbered while Charles Tolliver (MS-20) is.
  18. T.D.
    I have this recording but this is more interesting to watch:

    Thanks! Honest (and strange coincidence), I've never done a ranking of KD solos but this might very well be my favorite.
  20. T.D.

    Who is this?

    T.D. replied to Hardbopjazz's topic in Artists

    +1 but not highly confident.
  21. T.D.
    I have the Select, and your second suggestion (bolded above) is correct. I can't comment on "soprano-heavy" offhand. Maybe I'll spin the set in the next few days and post if nobody else does. I'm not very enthusiastic about this Select, have other listening planned and am not going to play it this evening.

    I found the list of songs at https://lithub.com/here-are-the-songs-bob-dylan-is-writing-about-in-his-forthcoming-book-on-modern-song/

    Both Montréalers as well.

    I don't listen much to OP, and when I do it's practically always in the "X with the Oscar Peterson Trio" format. But tastes vary and I'm not into dissing musicians. I was impressed by the fact that Hampton Hawes and Paul Bley, in their autobiographies, expressed high regard for OP. Perhaps Hawes referred more to OP's generosity and geniality, but Bley extolled his musicianship. So who am I to complain?

    Agreed on Garcia/Hunter. That's the Dead material I loved back in the '70s, and I still enjoy it when heard on the radio. (Sometimes I get the Woodstock radio station when driving, and the Dead and offshoots get significant play.)
