That's a Black Afro. There's no way that's a White Afro. Secret life indeed.

W----- M------- live streamed from Ronnie's this evening

Thought it was a Wade Marcus lecture. -
It's more than an 'I don't like it' response. The interview with Perfect Sound Forever is also a little more expansive about Braxton and Taylor and others etc. Read that one yet mjzee? The PSF interviewer does confront him (Shipp). with the criticism that the David S Ware band were just playing 'Sixties music, which is the reflexive position I suppose.

It's mostly always rewarding to read Iverson. But he can't get down into the insightful alleys the way Shipp does. Unless we're talking strictly mechanics. Especially with regard to the psychology of Black musicians from the more immediate past. Iverson just doesn't have the background to think about those things. He can respond to them sure, but he wont arrive at them on his own. Wish more things like this would pop up from time to time.

Album Covers alluding to Impressionist Paintings
robertoart replied to A Lark Ascending's topic in Miscellaneous Music
Larry Young, too. MG I was thinking of Larry Young, but I read the liner notes to (maybe?) Of Love And Peace, and Young spoke about seeing himself from the get go as being a bridge between the two positions. Whereas I think Manet, was a fully fledged post-Courbet Realist, and was more reaching out to the Impressionist 'New Thing,' out of aesthetic interest and his own direction. So I thought John Patton was a better fit as it were, because he really did start out culturally and aesthetically from a more fixed position musically. In fact, I don't think there's been many great players who made such a slow and methodical transition from one position to another as Patton did over the decade. Apart from The godlike Coltrane. There must be more, but even Moncur, McLean etc. all started from the edgier side of things within a mainstream context. There would be others that played R&B or Chitlin Circuit Jazz that become aesthetically and Culturally radicalised, but they usually weren't recording with a fully fledged voice at the top of the heap like Patton was.
