Niko

!!happy birthday!!

deezer has started to add emi titles... not many so far, just a bunch of rvgs (and their apparently in the process of adding stuff, now playing grant green's first stand which can only found by clicking on grant green and then on albums but not directly via the search function..)

interesting, will play this one soon, i really like assis brasil's trajeto now playing The Style Concil - Confessions of a Pop Group (first heard track two of this in a "Robert Wyatt plays his favorite songs" or the like radio show...)

Ditto re spotify, deezer and last.fm for us Yurpeans! thirded, together with changing form cigarettes to filter cigarillos these sites have helped me really much in cutting back my every day expenses without losing much comfort if any... (actually i am still amazed i have so much music so easily available, some days i must admit i just play 30 seconds of one album then go on to the next... but i am learning more discipline :-) ) i know spotify and deezer aren't, is last.fm available in the US? concerning web design (notably the playback function) and unavailability of listed stuff this is by far the worst of these sites but it has lots of things in its catalogue which the other sites don't have... read somewhere that these sites are just a way for the music industry to press money out of venture capital funds and that these sites can never be profitable... don't really care, happy as long as they're around... Now Playing: Ronnie Boykins - The Will Come, Is Now (lastfm) great one! I find you go through phases with these free music sites. At first I was drunk on access to so much unheard music and went through about 120 full albums, as well as "peeking" at things for a couple of minutes, as you mention, Niko. (This, by the way, led to warning emails from British Telecom about excessive broadband use and threat of surcharge. No such thing as a free lunch, as they say!) I kept lists, starring really good discs, which I'm now gradually rehearing and buying at the rate of about one a week. So I can hold my head up high, as far as the effect of free sites on the record industry is concerned! in my case i doubt the music industry profits from my change to these sites - since most of my listening is in my office anyway where i can't keep as many cds as i'd want to (and where i don't really profit from cd quality) i found myself buying only four cds since this thread started ten weeks ago (as opposed to 16 or so i'd have bought otherwise i guess) (and two of the cds were very cheap and used, another was a cd i had borrowed from a friend and lost...) haven't bought anything based on what i heard there (though i think i will buy the jimmy woods awakening ojc if my enthusiasm lasts) what i really like is that i take more chances with free impro cds i would have found too risky to buy...

saw some pretty good sideman stuff of saunders on youtube a few months ago... with azar lawrence iirc... edit to add it was henry franklin's group...

one thing i always wondered about: is this THE bill triglia: http://www.animalrights.net/articles/2005/...rsey-fur-store/

Carla Kilhstedt/Satoko Fujii - Minamo

ah, you already found a version - thought you were looking for recommendations

Cannonball and Coltrane in Chicago

Booker Little & Booker Ervin - Sounds from the Inner City (deezer)

here's an older paris thread (not the only one iirc) http://www.organissimo.org/forum/index.php?showtopic=1642 jussieu jazz no longer exists, but there still are paris jazz corner and croco jazz, my brother bought a bunch of cds at the latter for me last year and while they were a bit pricey they did have a great selection... besides i'd emphasize the recommendations for gibert for used cds - not the right shop if you're looking for anything particular but otherwise definitely worth a visit...

lift every voice is one of my favorite hill albums, can't really explain it. but i find the structure of the compositions comes out clearer in this line-up, don't know, i find it easier to follow... and though i am not particularly fond of choirs in general i think a solo singer would not have been better here (or melodies played by the horns)... think i like it better than grass roots (and also agree (?) that the additional album on the cd is a bit weaker than the original album (quite unlike grass roots where i like the additional material a good deal better...))

had that one in my hand too on saturday... but got the booker ervin savoy album and "magic carpet" by swiss guitarist tomas sauter What price were they asking? Got mine for £3.50 (used, but looks new.) think they wanted 6 or 7 euro for the stitt (and iirc it did look a bit used) (the two cds i got were 7 and 3, the ervin looked used, the other one was still sealed...) they set very random prices at that shop, like 12 euro a piece for the complete charlie parker dial recordings 4 cd set (stash) or the new steve kuhn ecm 3 cd set but then say, a cd by a contemporary greek saxophone player i had never heard about for 17...

another big triglia fan here, that fruscella/triglia at the open door was one of the records that got me seriously interested in jazz... (actually i had first read about fruscella in jack kerouac's new york... story; then in the liner notes to john zorn's filmworks iii i read about how much zorn was influenced by the open door recordings and that triglia was one of the three main influences on zorn's piano playing was (apparently on that cd was his zorn's debut recording on piano in a quartet dave douglas on trumpet); so i got the open door cd an was blown away... i really like all the triglia i've heard (with fruscella, with mingus, with maini, and on the schildkraut cd from allen lowe...) too bad there are not more recordings by him two more triglia threads http://www.organissimo.org/forum/index.php?showtopic=32516 http://www.organissimo.org/forum/index.php?showtopic=17203 and the long fruscella thread... http://www.organissimo.org/forum/index.php?showtopic=1867

I've got to try some more Camus some time, just to see if I still like his work if nothing else. I think I completely wore out my copy of The Stranger, and The Fall wasn't in much better shape. But then, that was in my teens and early twenties. Another author I haven't read in decades. But then, I don't wonder if I'm missing as much with Lovecraft... so far i don't feel much like going back to camus which i read as a teenager... i can understand anyone who says "the case of dexter ward" is a badly written novel - but i enjoy it a lot going back to something else from my early teens now - just started my fifth round through the lord of the rings (but for the first time in english)

indeed - an ugly looking cd (but a cheap one at present...)

on lastfm there are two more called my pure joy http://www.lastfm.de/music/Byard+Lancaster/My+Pure+Joy and crockett, mitchell and byard - the outcry http://www.lastfm.de/music/Crockett%252C%2...ter/The+Out+Cry no idea about any details... edit: here's a jazztimes review of "my pure joy" from 1997 http://jazztimes.com/articles/8922-my-pure...byard-lancaster and here's nate dorward's (not overly enthusiastic) review of outcry http://www.ndorward.com/music/crockett_outcry.htm

HP Lovecraft - The Case of Charles Dexter Ward

that certain feeling is the one session with ponder which i found as good or even better than the andrew hill... i also like his own album jump with big john patton quite a bit...

if a guitar counts as no piano there is also charles tolliver's compassion (and dozens with alto/guitar/bass/drums from anthony braxton to bud shank)

( http://www.deezer.com/#music/album/160712 )

some i enjoyed recently: noah howard - and about love (esp) http://www.last.fm/music/Noah+Howard+Quartet/And+About+Love sam rivers - waves (rivers does play piano here and there though, and it has a tuba as the second horn so in a sense it's more a quartet with two bass players) http://www.last.fm/music/Sam+Rivers/Waves marion brown's first esp album http://www.last.fm/music/Marion+Brown+Quartet/Capricorn+Moon charles tyler - eastern man alone http://www.last.fm/music/Charles+Tyler+Ens...stern+Man+Alone

too much stuff on that list i'd still like to get (though still about half my jazz cds are ojcs...) Ahmed Abdul Malik - Jazz Sahara Matthew Gee - Jazz by Gee Jenkins Jordan Timmons Ken McIntyre - Looking Ahead Hal McKusick - Triple Exposure Gil Melle - Gil's Guests Ada Moore - Jazz Workshop Vol 3 Dizzy Reece - Asia Minor Jerome Richardson - Midnight Oil Doug Watkins - Soulnik Jimmy Woods - Awakening highest priority on asia minor and Jenkins Jordan Timmons... the richardson is very good too, right? of the ones i know i'd recommend the Ralph Burns and the carmell jones the most i think...
