  1. Strange to have a 'book' from such a peripheral figure.
  2. There ya go. That's what British Invasion Fusion should sound like. None of that Jeff Beck bullshit. Disintegration Fusion
  3. Greyish Yellow Europe.
  4. Black Country music in what way? Surely the cultural separation of Black and White meant there are differences. How was Country music a wholistic culture. Or are you talking about music with similar form being played in both communities?
  5. That was my first thought. I am surprised it took this long in the thread to be mentioned. Surely it is the banner for disembodied harmonic MELODY.
  6. Not very visually minded anti-album cover thread people?
  7. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Gbfnh1oVTk0 http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=TPLS2i9dSy0
  8. Obviously White Country Music is the yin to yang of Black Music in early rock n roll. Are you the first to recognise this? BTW is there any Black Country Music?
  9. Those two dogs are the same, but different.
  10. Amin Ali and Cornell Rochester had a purple patch on a series of Music Revelation Ensemble releases.
  11. Seconded I was unaware of jazz until I was 31 and I didn't grow up in a cave wow 31. It sounds like you're really into it now. Like a reformed smoker.
  12. Not Shuggie Otis, then? MG Interesting comparison to Shuggie. But Shuggie was on the genre busting side of things. Chris Cain is more straightforward in either a Blues or Fusion way. This is a very nice descending melody http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=VAfGz-hLgf4
  13. Chris cain is weird. A Greek African American Fusion guitarist who does BB King impersonations. Awesome player
  14. Actually I think I bought it to hear Yardbird Suite. You're not wrong in what you say. I definitely identify the conception of this music as Basie era. There is a lot of interesting Organ configurations that cross-polinate that Ellington/Basie era minded players with hard bop-boogaloo players. Perhaps that further makes George Freeman sound extra funny on some of these tracks. Freeman whom I love by the way. Indeed wasn't Jimmy Lewis from one of the Basie bands? Perhaps these tunes are better served in vibe and atmosphere on their original vinyl releases - or in a club back in the day Nothing wrong with the playing itself. How could there be
  15. Spotify just informed me people who listen to Shuggie Otis also listen to Donald Byrd
  16. This is a quite beautiful McCartney melody. Yearning. Melancholy. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=1LcSIS_h1gE
  17. Ayn Rand Hitler Ron Hitler-Barassi https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/TISM
  18. Holy moly, I haven't checked the Feinberg site in nearly a year. There's a Kenny Burrell interview up. And Mundell Lowe too and Michael Cuscuna, and that's just March!

    Mal Waldron

    This link works. Another fine expose! http://dothemath.typepad.com/dtm/on-mal-waldron.html "I love the cover photo almost as much as the music. Waldron was extremely photogenic: His great look undoubtedly helped him sustain a viable career playing recondite music. Everyone interested in marketing uncompromising jazz should check out a vinyl edition of What it Is. It’s obviously badass avant-garde black music that you must buy immediately".
