Z'ev and Boyd Rice "UNTITLED" Percussion and "noise". LTD. to 800 copies. Cold Spring Records. Boyd just gave this to me last week. I have always enjoyed Z'ev's percussion experiments, and, well, Boyd Rice....I have been friends with him for 17 years. I certainly don't see eye to eye with him on his "social Darwinism" beliefs, but we go back a long time and I respect his music a great deal.
Coming up next: The Melvins 4xLP set!! New and damned limited, with etched b sides. COOOOOOL!

The Clark Terry Impulse lp was/is some fun. His Veritone version of "Mumbles" is a crowd favorite. Good album overall.

I just picked up Jeffery S. McMillan's new biography on Lee Morgan, titled "Delightfulee, the Life and Music of Lee Morgan" 250 pages, illustrated.
I have yet to crack the spine, but hopefully it will be worth the $ 22.95.
Anybody out there checked this out yet?? Comments??
I will start reading this today.

I only have one Rearward lp re-issue "Free-Blown Jazz" I think is the title (I'm still hunting for it, since I moved and vinyl is in boxes everwhere).
Any other info you folks have on him? I remember really enjoying the lp. Italian, mid-free stuff.
Thanks,

Super sweet LP, orig. TRANSITION 20, with Hank Mobley, Donald Byrd, Kenny Burrell, Duke Jordan and Art Taylor. I really dig this one!

The Three Sun's lp "Swingin' on a star" is my very fave of all their rca material. King Curtis swings and honks and does some nice ballads on this one.
Great lp cover, too, a guy and gal on a flying carpet, if I recall.
I think Esquivel and The Three Sun's were both great, and definately not a "Guilty pleasure"
As for my deep admiration for the antics of the Kirby Stone 4, well..........

I guess nobody knows the details of Charles Gayle's dissapointment w/ Tchicai when they made that Silkheart album way back in the early 1990's. I thought the LP
was fine to OK, but after spinning it again, I can kinda hear some dissension.

A few years back I had the good fortune to see Honeyboy live here in Denver. I chatted with him for a bit, however he was being innundated by "yuppies" who, to a one,
were asking him only about Robert Johnson, he took it in stride, but seemed a little annoyed by all that.
Musically, it was a fantastic show. Long live Honey boy!!
