I like this one more: https://limitedsedition.bandcamp.com/album/ls026-liverpool-bluecoat-concert I have heard most of the stuff Butcher has released and 13 Friendly Numbers is still one of my favorites.

New release on Rogue Art: Butcher - Shipp - Lehn "The Clawed Stone". I strongly prefer Butcher solo, I find his paying so complete that partners only subtract. Well, Gino Robair might be an exception. In any case, I might give this one a try. There is an earlier release by this group, "Tangle", on Fataka: https://f-a-t-a-k-a.bandcamp.com/album/tangle

Placed my order with Moers on Monday and received Out for a Walk today. Listened through it once, good stuff, although Almost Like Me is better.

Talkig about favorite drummers, here is one: Garth Powell

I did a few months ago. No problems.

Ain't gonna happen. Even in the much more active years, 15 years ago, there were probably 10 people on this forum interested in "freer" music. And now with the board in a zombie mode it's even worse.

I agree on Peterson and Sorey, maybe Rainey, but Cleaver (?), Waits (???) as world's best? To each his own of course, but this strikes me as an outlandish hyperbole that even subjective variations in taste would fail to justify. And there are a couple of good drummers outside of NYC too. And maybe we could refrain from grand proclamations about "best", this is not competitive sport after all, and rather talk about "favorites"?

Could it be that you meant "one of the 4 or 5 decent drummers from NYC" by chance ?

Inspired by this topic I listened to my first Perelman in 10 years (at least): a randomly selected Tarvos (Leo, 2017) with Shipp and Bobby Kapp: https://www.discogs.com/Ivo-Perelman-Tarvos/release/9996101 It's actually very good, I liked it much better than I'd thought I would.

I have not kept up for the last 15 years or so, and it's unlikely I will, but from the older stuff I remember liking these three: Children of Ibeji (on Enja MW, 1992): https://www.discogs.com/Ivo-Perelman-Children-Of-Ibeji/release/1974004 The Eye Listens with Michael Wimberly and Wilber Morris (on Boxholder, 1999): https://www.discogs.com/Ivo-Perelman-The-Eye-Listens/release/536752 The Hammer with Jay Rosen (on Leo, 1998): https://www.discogs.com/Ivo-Perelman-Jay-Rosen-The-Hammer/release/2492679 None of these is on Spotify. The first two are OOP (sorry), but should be relatively easy to find. Ah, and one more: En Adir (Traditional Jewish Songs) with Marilyn Crispell, Gerry Hemingway and William Parker (who is somewhat less annoying than usual here) on Music & Arts, 1996: https://www.discogs.com/Ivo-Perelman-Quartet-En-Adir-Traditional-Jewish-Songs/release/3246054 . This one's on Spotify.

You don't really need to "search" for it, the CD (or even LP, if you are so inclined) is available directly from the label: https://www.moers-music.com/productscd/odean-pope-trio-out-for-a-walk-cd2072

Don't know the answers, but I love this (Almost Like Me) album! Regarding shady-grady, I find it odd that "Out for a Walk" reuses the the artwork from the unrelated Pope's Soul Note release "Epitome".

Not sure about "the best", but I like these a lot. All of them are not exactly jazz, though. https://mikroton.bandcamp.com/album/fracture-mechanics https://f-a-t-a-k-a.bandcamp.com/album/prediction-and-warning And just released: Sorry the images are so small.

Today only Ayler records gives a 20% discount on all bandcamp purchases (both downloads and CDs) with a discount code 65bcf20 I bought a couple of albums: https://ayler-records.bandcamp.com/album/garden-s https://ayler-records.bandcamp.com/album/tower-vol-4

A lot of live Ronald Shannon Jackson stuff on Spotify / bandcamp (apparently, released by his estate).

Owen Howard (drums) "Sojourn" (KOCH Jazz 1995, recorded in 1993) with Chris Potter, Larry Grenadier, Phil Grenadier, and Brad Shepik: https://www.discogs.com/Owen-Howard-Sojourn/release/4367486 This one is actually really good. To be fair, I don't know how much of a profile the sidemen had in 1993, but by now all of them (expect for Phil Grenadier, I guess) are definitely more well-known than Owen Howard.

I should have been the first!!!!! My wife distracted me when I was posting (pick up the kids from the kindergarten - woman, don't you see I am BUSY?!?!)!!!!! For 17 years since I joined this forum I was waiting for this moment - to be the first one to post about this (mediocre) Chris Fagan album when THE RIGHT MOMENT COMES!!! And then some American Joe posts about it a split second before I do!!!!!! Americans were not even supposed to be awake at that time!!!! What an abject humiliation!!!!!! Have no choice but to quit this forum in disgrace now (might have to consider a divorce too)!!!!!!! What a coincidence, though .

Sonny Brown (drummer with Roland Kirk, Attila Zoller, etc.): https://www.discogs.com/artist/646690-Sonny-Brown?filter_anv=0&type=Credits

Chris Fagan (alto saxophone) with Bobby Bradford, Reggie Workman and Andrew Cyrille - "Lost Bohemia" (Open Minds, 1992): https://www.discogs.com/Chris-Fagan-Lost-Bohemia/release/1014907 It's OK, nothing special.

This one (all 14 tracks) is available at Spotify (copyright Verve / UMG): https://open.spotify.com/album/2e8bHUiUMHPTNJuCgUvXZG

Is this the solo or the Blue Note one?

You might want to watch the DIscogs page: https://www.discogs.com/Carlos-Ward-Quartet-Feat-Woody-Shaw-Lito/release/4238572 . One copy was sold there for a modest €12 a month ago. I bought it Italy in 2002 and thought it was actually not that good. Ward is playing better on the Blackwell dates. There's definitely better Shaw out there. Sold it to someone on this forum a few years ago. Curious why it was deleted from the Leo catalog. Don't forget Ward with Cecil Taylor, Bologna and Vienna concerts on Leo. Lyons he is not, but he's holding pretty well. I also like his two duets with Karl Berger from the Berger's "Conversations" album, the flute one in particular.

New Trevor Watts solo release: https://www.hi4headrecords.com/catalogue.html#lockdown

A good one. I guess you saw it, but just in case - it is offered on Discogs: https://www.discogs.com/Cor-Fuhler-7-CC-In-Io/release/2347882
