Dave Burns!

Yeah, 100% auditioning this one again for "Moon Rays."

Perhaps the Horace Silver date I most consistently overlook/forget about.

Lorde Tom Lord Peter Jason Quill

They were from Dallas.

Wait... it's not a silhouette? It's just a piece of painted plywood!?!? In all seriousness, the angle at which this figure is holding their horn... vaguely Ayler-esque?

Same here. One thing's for sure: we can rule out Jerry West.

Superb solo piano set.

I believe this is now in general circulation (it began life as a limited edition). It's much more than an odds and sods collection. It does a fine job of tracking Buckley's evolution from HAPPY/SAD to GOODBYE AND HELLO. Specifically, you can hear him his looser, more expressionistic vocal approach — one less indebted to folk traditions — begin to emerge. http://www.timbuckley.com/works-in-progress/

You know, if they were still doing Mosaic Selects, those Muse dates would make a nice collection. I remember SONGS OF COURAGE, with a few guests appearances by Roland Alexander, being quite fine.

FWIW, this can be purchased on Amazon for a mere 2.97 USD. I prefer to transact via Bandcamp (thanks for that link!) myself, but if you are on a budget...

This Riverside date of roughly the same vintage is also very enjoyable.

Love this compilation of experimental Uruguayan pop from the 80s: https://vampisoul.bandcamp.com/album/am-rica-invertida

J.C. Moses!

Dottie "Doc" McStuffins Dashiell Hammett Alan Turing

Curious about the other project. Not so interested in the Frisell-Lovano trio. (Though I'd like for those two musicians to surprise me. I know Sorey will.)

As good as this sort of thing gets.

Edward Everett Horton Cindy Lou Who Keith Moon

An LP I have rather stupidly overlooked for far too long.

Nice! Thanks!
