Enoch Light And The Command All-Stars – Persuasive Percussion - Vol. 4

Capt. John Handy - All Aboard A four horn front line and ragtimey piano makes for a pretty indigestible record.

Oh no! That's too young I was listening to his excellent work on that Charlie Byrd record just last night.

It was triggered by listening to that new Abhorrent Expansive record with Craig Taborn on. I always enjoy this one, although I rarely remember to listen to it. In the fusiony death metal world I tend to reach for Gorguts and Cynic first.

Pestilence – Spheres

Fantastic! When I upgraded it was like having a whole new LP collection!

Cartola – Cartola

Adia Vanheerentals – Taking Place Solo soprano in specific settings. Much more about the settings that the sonorities, so it distinguishes itself from the Lao Dans or John Butchers of the world. Those guys never played to a bunch of chickens. I'm really astonished at how hard the Teagarden Verves are to find second hand. I'd have assumed that this music shifted units, but I'm not sure how many times I've encountered them in the wild.

Roland Prince - Color Visions

Spinning this one at the moment: Roberto Roena Y Su Apollo Sound X – El Progreso

Gunesh - Gunesh Some 1980s Soviet jazz rock from Turkmenistan.

Sam Ostropov - Blight Music Fun idea: a recent record exploring the kind of music that the David Murray Octet and others like it made in their prime. There are lots of roads that were never fully explored.

John Plonsky Quintet with Betty Ann Blake - Cool Man Cool

Does that mean he won't be recording / touring with them any more? I would be a bit interested in hearing some more small group Marsalis at this point, I guess. Harsh, but fair.

Climaco Sarmiento Y Su Orquesta – Bombo Y Maracas

Ha!

Helluva cover, there.

A trombone, bass, bass and bat quartet.

Ted Nash and his nephew Ted Nash, apparently. Who knew.

Is this real? Are you actually on a jazz cruise? Which one and is it good?

Another question for the Latin fans on here: where else do you go to discuss this music? Reddit seems pretty rotten. Apologies to the admins for this, but I think it's fair to ask given that this isn't meant to be a Latin music forum. I have a burning desire for more recommendations in the beloved P-SMTiCoBBFtifNYoC genre.

Well, "pre-salsa musica tropicale in conjunto or big band format that isn't from New York or Cuba" it is, then I guess. If anyone has some great recommendations within that snappily titled non-genre, please flag them here too.
