    I actually like those for what it's worth. Can't explain it, but I do.

    Sadao Watanabe's records from the '60s and '70s are fabulous. I don't think there's a real clinker in the bunch, at least not until you get to the smoother fusion sounds of the late '70s/early '80s (not my cuppa).

    yeah I have a CD-R bootleg (not DMG) so at least I can listen to the thing when I want. Great record, never scored an original alas...
  4. clifford_thornton
    ugh, that sucks -- it's clearly a bootleg, so...

    I didn't know about this. Will definitely kick some his way and spread the word. Have felt supremely lucky to see Ted play a number of times as well as interview him some years back. He's one of the greats.

    Have this on LP and quite enjoy it. Someone else will too.

    haven't dug that LP out in quite some time. Bill was working as Russell's copyist and there was some talk of him joining the band... this would have been after Ellis' departure and before Russell's Scandinavian sojourn.
  8. clifford_thornton
    Yes, Bill Dixon lived in that building at that time also.

    yeah mine is awful. As an archivist I have had to work very hard in making my handwriting clear on folders and other documents for researchers. It's not easy!

    Lot of brilliant artists in various fields can't spell for shit. Not uncommon. Certainly jibes with my experience.
  11. clifford_thornton
    yeah, excellent album. now: Pierre Dubois (recordist and occasional performer) -- Amazonie, Folklore des tribus indiennes -- (VDE, CH orig)
  12. clifford_thornton
    How much!?!?!
  13. clifford_thornton
    Should've called it "With Friends Like These..."
  14. clifford_thornton
    agreed. They're all good -- have them on LP -- but Tetterettet has the edge.
  15. clifford_thornton
    in both scenarios, good musicians get caught up in bad shit.

    yes, I have it. There's a ton of wonderful material on there. The Trout Mask House Sessions are pretty fun. I have these on LP; my favorite is the third set, which is primarily 1972 and later, and titled "Grow Fins." The CD set adds about twenty minutes.
  18. clifford_thornton
    Wasn't there a licensed RSD reissue of Trout Mask this year? I think it was just the two LPs as issued, but... at least it's something. Agreed about Lick My Decals Off. Great one and sadly quite obscure in comparison.

    The Family of Apostolic -- (Vanguard Apostolic, US)
  20. clifford_thornton
    yeah, beautiful album. Now: Green On Red -- Gravity Talks -- (Slash, US)

    So sad to hear. Glad he got a reprieve in the last couple of decades. RIP.
  22. clifford_thornton
    added to my list as well.
  23. clifford_thornton
    I have that one kicking around somewhere; can't recall very much about it, sadly.

    da bastids have a stereo copy of Jackpot for sale at $15 if anyone is looking: https://www.dustygroove.com/item/570290?sf=Dave+Brubeck&incl_oos=1&incl_cs=1&kwfilter=Dave+Brubeck&sort_order=artist

    not all DRUMZ are created equal, however... yeah, that one also uses melody to a great extent. "Bert The Cat" is amazing.
