  1. That's right- hardly any! Maybe he was referencing Roscoe Mitchell's album from your label? Some recent discoveries: Stephanie Santiago from London Miir from Gary, IN Tawiah from London KeiyaA from Chicago And Jamila Woods also from Chicago Far from a Neo Soul overview, but just some leads on what I think are some talented singers.
  2. Man, really? Just seems so shallow a pool to relegate oneself into. Wade on out toward the deeper waters big fella...
  3. Been streaming the Blue Mitchell Blue Note records: The Thing to Do, Step Lightly, Down With It! & Boss Horn. Favorites of this group are Down & Boss. Boss benefits from Duke Pearson arrangements, which I really enjoy. Love coming across those on those Mobley records as well. Pearson was a talented dude... Also, I love Junior Cook's playing. Sue me.
  4. Nat on cornet in 2 different quartet settings. Natch!
  5. Wow, great news
  6. This one? If so, it's John Berg, who did all of the Miles 80s albums too. Some nice work in this guy's portfolio
  7. Love that cover art/design. And I bet the SQ is great too.
  8. Shelf room being made for the Joe Henderson set? April is right around the corner...
  9. Yeah, I'm interested in that too, but would prefer digital over a 3 LP set...hoping after that set is released they spread across other media.
  10. Man, I've regretted both of the times I "purged" my collection. Glad it worked out for you though. Been streaming these albums and like what I'm hearing, so looking forward to playing them on the main system.
  11. Sorry to hear that. My best wishes to you and your wife. Hopefully it will be mild and y'all will get well quickly.
  12. I'm guessing you have the Art Yard CD set? I'm really intrigued by the quartet setting on these and can't wait to hear it. The P-Vine's I think will unfortunately have Japanese liners so I won't be able to read them (hoping I'm wrong, but I suspect not).
  13. Yes, and thankfully mine does. Good point either way, and that Yamaha model you linked definitely looks nice. Best of luck finding one that suits your needs.
  14. He's really impressive. I just ordered what I think were the last copies of the P-Vine CDs of Disco 3000 and Media Dreams at Import CDs. Both are 2 CD sets of live shows from Italy in the late 70s. Looking forward to those.
  15. For sure. I was listening to my download of the regular Lanquidity this AM and was thinking that if they do any sonic improvements on this one, that hopefully the bass will be one of them. I've really been getting sucked into listening to more Sun Ra these days. The percussion ensemble playing is outstanding, as is the bass playing, usually by Ronnie Boykins or Victor Sproles.
  16. My first and foremost Rollins rec these days (edits and all):
  17. The only other suggestion I have if Bags Unlimited doesn't work is to contact the label (Analogue Productions maybe?) to ask where they get theirs and if either they can sell you replacements or put you in touch with their contacts for them.
  18. There is a setting on this player that keeps the DSD from converting to PCM, and it also plays multichannel.
  19. I have and love my Sony UBP-X800. It's lower tier and less expensive than most others so maybe I don't know what I'm missing otherwise, but I've had no issues. I've read where a lot of people swear by Marantz.
  20. Theatrics aside, I'm pretty sure he's a serious musician and legit talent. I was a big fan of RCHP back in the day. Without his bass playing they'd likely have never grown beyond California.
  21. Flea: " Oh man, the great Freddie Redd has passed away. The man was a transcendent pianist and a major figure of the hard bop era. He lived at our house for a while when I was a kid, I was in love with him, in awe of him. I’d sit and watch him practice, transfixed. Listening to his album The Connection right now, his deep funky solos flying through my living room, working their magic as always. Fly on Freddie you live forever. Rest In Peace. "
  22. I'm wondering if they got more orders than they expected and have to increase production? CD & LP preorders are still up over at ImportCDs as well. This morning's listening via Evidence CD. Brilliant stuff. John Gilmore's bass clarinet on Adventure-Equation =
  23. Hilarious. And they're Canadian! The baritone saves it the most IMO.
