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?

I think this is one of their more underrated records. One of my biggest problems with the Hi Los is that their music doesn't have much place for rhythm. At least this one has to deal with a beat. Perhaps it leads to a dilution of their sound, but to my ears it is an overall improvement.
