Louis Sclavis Trio – Ceux Qui Veillent La Nuit I think the French jazz scene of the 1990s needs a concerted rediscovery. There are so many great records on labels like Dreyfus, Bleu and Nato that barely form part of the conversation.

Helen Merrill Together With Dick Katz – The Feeling Is Mutual

That's more than a bare foot.

Chet Baker – Blood, Chet And Tears

Nice to see some Paris chat. His delivery is so natural.

Tony Scott – African Bird / Come Back! Mother Africa - To The Spirit Of Charlie Parker

The dog would.

Mal Waldron – Number Nineteen

Dizzy Gillespie Et Les Double-Six – Dizzy Gillespie Et Les Double-Six

Oh wait. There were fake obits? I thought I was loosing the plot.

Emil Richards – New Sound Element "Stones"

Oh yes.

Very sad. That said, I am convinced I read obituaries for him two years ago, so I was genuinely surprised he was still alive.

Thanks!

Were there other mods at your school? I had no idea that the concept had crossed the Atlantic. Did Quadrophenia get a big US release?

What was the kitchen? Was it a venue?

It is a great record. Everything and everyone really works. Now on this one: Dieter Scherf Trio – Inside-Outside Reflections

Fieldwork - Your Life Flashes Good to have a reminder that Iyer was at one point an exciting young pianist.

Conjunto Copacabana Bossa – Bossa Just finished Bobby Hackett – A Time For Love

Milford Graves With Sunny Morgan – Percussion Ensemble It is indeed!

Joseph Jarman - Don Moye – Earth Passage - Density

It is actually good, unironically. It is basically a hi fi record but it really pops and is full of big blaring stereoscopic ideas. I've been exploring studio system jazz records for a month or two now. A lot of them are very dreary corporate affairs, but then you do hit some amazing records sometimes. TTK is the resident expert of course.

Bob Florence/Big Band – Bongos / Reeds / Brass

Wayne Shorter - Joy Rider

How do you rate this one?
