If you scroll to the back of the linked New York City Jazz Record, there is a fairly complete day by day listing of April jazz events.

My choice would probably be Abdullah Ibrahim and Ekaya at Town Hall. http://thetownhall.org/event/thejazzepistles

Sadly, you are too late--the 8 track museum is gone--no longer a mysterious destination on Commerce Street in Deep Ellum. When I think of how many times I walked by without venturing inside, it is almost as if I just did not care.

Eddie "Lockjaw" Davis, Light and Lovely (Definitive Black and Blue Sessions)

The fun options in Waco are undoubtedly still rather limited in scope.

Vieux Farka Toure, Samba (Six Degrees)

More than a little annoying, and I wasn't able to go to the Indian classical concert this afternoon, so only live music disappointment today. But at least I got the message before I left. Once I drove to Austin to hear a Hugh Masekela/Miriam Makeba concert only to be told on arrival at the Paramount Theater that the band was stuck in Dallas; now that was annoying.

If anyone besides me was planning on going to Austin to hear Henry Threadgill, there is a last minute cancellation/postponement. We regret to inform you this Friday's Master Class and Saturday's Concert with Henry Threadgill has been postponed until further notice due to traveling logistics caused by Delta Airlines' mass flight cancellation (due to the severe thunderstorm this past Wednesday in Atlanta - more info). We tried everything in our capacity to re-book new flights but it simply was not possible to find one for this weekend.Therefore, on behalf of Liminal Sound Series and Epistrophy Arts, we would like to apologize for the cancellation, especially to those of you who have already made travel and accommodation plans. Unfortunately, these were circumstances which were beyond our control.Your ticket will continue to be valid for the new dates (TBA shortly).

Brother Jack McDuff, Screamin' (Prestige)

Thanks--it sounds like an event worth planning for and attending.

Mary Lou Williams and Barbara Carroll, Ladies of Jazz

Spiritualizing the Senses is an all instrumental album.

Sound quality is good. Recorded at the Cork and Bib on Long Island by William Glaser. While you are at it, the Silveto release Spiritualizing the Senses (with Ralph Moore and Eddie Harris) is quite good as well--probably his best post-Blue Note recording.

Horace Silver released that himself in the 1980s on LP. I bought a copy from him in between sets and he autographed it. I do not believe it has been released on CD.

Any comments on the logistics of this festival? Can you walk from venue to venue or do you need a car to get around? How are the venues? Good sound? Are they overcrowded? Is admission smooth and easy?

Ibrahim Maalouf, Wind

I think you mean Terence Blanchard. Roy Hargrove is from Dallas and used to play around here fairly often, but it's been a long time. I'd like to hear the recording the Caravan of Dreams made of the weekend engagement in 1988 where David Newman led a group with Roy on trumpet, plus Larry Willis, Walter Booker and Idris Mohammad. I recollect attending two nights.

Where's that bullet train when you need it.
