Another vote for PORTRAIT OF MARIAN MCPARTLAND. Pretty ear-opening.

Glad to know this is available! Hemphill + John Carter... sold!

Dig this version of "Warm Valley" from Roamin' With Richardson. The way he ranges up and down the baritone here — and, at times, even his articulation — reminds me of Eric Dolphy's work on bass clarinet. IIRC, there was mutual admiration between the two musicians. There's also Tiny In Swingville with Tiny Grimes. A co-leader date, and not your standard blowing session.

He made some lovely records for ECM (solo cello mostly).

And thank you for this EARTRIP link!

Fifty years ago, Marion Brown recorded “Afternoon of a Georgia Faun,” an experimental, musical collaboration to re-create the sounds of nature from his Southern childhood. Jazz critic Jon Ross takes us on a journey through Brown’s musical legacy.

Yes indeed! Maybe the absurd version of this, but still illuminative: https://unseenworlds.bandcamp.com/album/satie-slowly

Thanks for the clarification!

I also see there's a grey market collection of the complete Konitz / Mulligan / Baker Haig recordings from 1953, but I know little else about it. https://www.discogs.com/Lee-Konitz-Chet-Baker-Gerry-Mulligan-Complete-1953-The-Haig-Performances/release/10231100

Thanks; I'd forgotten half of it was live. And agree. Some of the best early Konitz out there.

Also, the Lee Konitz / Gerry Mulligan / Chet Baker Pacific Jazz date... maybe I'm just clueless, but I don't see much discussion of this one. A key document, and still very fine listening.

The Ted Brown / Warne Marsh recordings (FREEWHEELIN' etc.). Also, the Art Pepper / Marsh session for Contemporary. You can get a taste via THE WAY IT WAS, but the complete sessions are out there too, though maybe only ever released in Japan [?].

Hearing Herbie's voice is proving to be a very emotional experience for me.

Thanks for confirming. Not that I really doubted it was real... it's just that it's so out of the blue. But what a treasure.

This has been authenticated?

Whoa! Thanks!

Very much enjoyed relistening to this program. Thanks again for helping to document the work Kimbrough and co. did to preserve — heck, enhance — Herbie Nichols' legacy.

Have you seen LAWRENCE OF BELGRAVIA? Keep meaning to check it out. https://thequietus.com/articles/24054-lawrence-felt-denim-go-kart-mozart-interview

What a songwriter he was.
