MILFORD GRAVES FULL MANTIS This new documentary illuminates the life, music, and philosophies of renowned drummer/percussionist Milford Graves. Since the 1960s, Graves (born 1941) has performed internationally with free-jazz luminaries such as Albert Ayler and Sonny Sharrock. Milford Graves Full Mantis takes viewers into Graves's Queens home to meet the relentlessly curious artist. His ruminations on life, nature, and the fluidity of rhythm are intercut with archival performance footage-including a European concert and an ecstatic happening at a Japanese school.

Listening to the newly issued 3 disc anthology of Hugh Masekela recordings from 1966-76; the first disc and a half are pretty spotty; there is not much I would listen to twice. Then halfway through disc 2, you reach the entirety of Introducing Hedzoleh Sounds, which is a fantastic record (not issued before on CD?) with a group from Ghana, to whom Masekela was introduced by Fela. Worth the price of admission alone.

Logan Richardson, Blues People (Ropeadope)

The album is not dated, but according to other sources is from 1967. New Orleans Jazz at the Kitty Halls (Arhoolie) Bill Harris, The Harris Touch (Emarcy)

I don't know. I just have this album, not the album you reference. This one has arrangements by Gil Fuller, features a vocalist named Leni Groves and a band including Moore on piano and organ, Hadley Caliman on tenor sax and flute, Joe Pass on guitar, Joe Comfort on bass, Francisco Aquabella on congas, and Clarence Johnson on drums.

The Ramsey McLean group I saw is on half of this CD. https://www.amazon.com/new-orleans-music-jump-jazz/dp/B00413D3UQ/ref=sr_1_2?s=music&ie=UTF8&qid=1527792333&sr=1-2&keywords=Ramsey+Mclean

I have a strong recollection of reading of his death, but I must admit I could find nothing on the internet. He appeared at the New Orleans Jazz and Heritage Festival almost every year from 1979-1991, but not a single time since then. Well, I'm glad he's alive then; it must be a false memory on my part.

In 1987, I went to the New Orleans Jazz and Heritage Festival, and one of the groups I saw was Ramsey McLean and the Survivors. Don Cherry was supposed to be their guest, but for some reason he was not there. It didn't matter, the group was fantastic. Unfortunately, he died very young (not too long after that recording, I think).

My set actually arrived today.
