Oh! I actually own Sweet Space. That's a very good record. I hadn't realised it was on Anima.

I love that one. I'm not sure why I left it off my initial list.

Afro/American Sketches by Oliver Nelson (Prestige, 1962)

Dave Pike's Doors of Perception I listen to this one every couple of years, and then generally remember quite quickly why, despite its good bits, it isn't really a favourite.

Thanks for all the above recommendations. On another point, does anyone know of any good videos of interviews with Konitz or of Konitz playing live? He seems very poorly served by YouTube when compared with other jazz musicians. (Edit: Konitz, not Kibitz!!!)

I don’t know the Animas at all. Are there any you’d recommend in particular? the idea of a Tyler / Bang meet up sounds pretty intriguing.

I need to put this one on again. Thanks for the reminder.

Muhal Richard Abrams' 1-OQA+19 (Black Saint, 1978).

I don't get it. Do you not even like Heino's music, then?

I think someone on here recommended it too me in a post about Korean free improv and jazz which I can no longer find. To whoever it was - Thank you!

A great afternoon.

Thanks! I shall check it out. I do know what you mean about Favre. He seriously overembellishes. Sometimes it works nicely I think, like on that Intakt duo he did with Irene Schweizer, but it can get a bit much. Overall, I still see his presence on a record as a draw. Meanwhile, I am currently listening to this unbelievable record: Not Japanese of course (although Takada Midori is on it). But then nor was Heino. It is incredibly good anyway.

This is really good. Kenji Mōri is fantastic.

Yeah. That "rock" album is strangely good. Certainly better than the Pat Boone equivalent. I have been YouTubeing Heino quite bit since yesterday. I am actually and in all seriousness enjoying myself.

Tyshawn Sorey and Marilyn Crispell - The Adornment of Time

What is this one? A comp of 10"s? There seems to be no information out there that I can see; even discogs is pretty unhelpful. It's weird how there's so many records even from the pairing that I still have to discover, even though I have spent a year listening to everything that they did together! I really agree.

They're weirdly hard to find in the UK! I find more Warne Marsh in shops than I do Konitz. And Konitz recorded about 6000x more albums.

From Heino back to Hino. It looks really interesting from your description. I'll definitely check it out.

Hi, I have been on quite a heavy Konitz trip since he passed away last year. I’d always enjoyed his work, but over lockdown my love of his playing has gone up to the next level. He has a huge discography, and even after a year, I am still finding new records that I love. But I am also aware that I am probably missing a lot. So, other than the below, are there any “major” Konitz records that I am missing? (Major in either the objective sense ("history records this as an important/influential work") or subjective ("I, a jazz aesthete, like this record a whole lot").) Birth of the Cool Crosscurrents (Tristano) Subconscious-Lee At the Storyville Plays with the Gerry Mulligan Quartet Lee Konitz with Warne Marsh At Harvard Square Inside Hi-Fi Tranquillity Live at the Half Note Lee Konitz Meets Jimmy Giuffre Motion The Lee Konitz Duets Alto Summit European Episode Altissimo Jazz a Juan Lone-Lee The three Jazz Exchanges Satori Crosscurrents (Bill Evans etc.) Ideal Scene Star Eyes, Hamburg 1983 The New York Album Art of the Duo Alone Together

I confirm I am. (Sorry).

Oh. If you mean the Pharoah one, then I may have bought it... Sorry. I misread and thought you might be looking for the Shepp one.

The site has been calling out for one. I'm pretty surprised at how much like Jacques Brel some of it sounds.

Everything about it is incredibly creepy and unnatural.

HJs West had the Pharaoh one in store for a long time. Might be worth trying there if stocks run out at source.
