I think I've really only listened to him as part of early Chick Corea aggregations, but always enjoyed his playing (esp. on tenor) there.

probably even earlier than that!

Thank you! So glad you are enjoying it.

Heavy Soul, Inc. -- Live In Paradiso -- (Heavy Soul Music, NL) probably haven't listened to this in about ten years! Excellent, raw free jazz LP.

Yes, that's true. Also Ra did not like Carla Bley being involved.

sure thing -- hope he doesn't mind!

looks cool; there's an Italian art/Arte Povera gallery and research center near Cold Spring, NY, which has some very good work on display (though no Griffa that I can recall). It's called Magazzino and should be a space to watch.

It's cool and a good read but there are no footnotes, endnotes, or other citations.

Wow. RIP.

more like "Gunslinging Turd," right?

There's enough crap on the L train to have to deal with Too Many Zooz during rush hour.

this is a nice one. Zimmermann is/was great.

Yeah, Einstein.

It has been yanked because it's now available on DVD or Blu-ray. So you can watch it, and if you can't find it I can get one for you (I work for Robert Wilson).

I would listen to these but I have Ornette and Don Cherry going on the deck.

RIP. Interesting character and I'm glad for the work, even if I didn't totally connect with it.

I'm 41 and am not bothered by the term cisgender or by gender nonconformity. The assumption that gender fluidity is a Millennial construct, and not endemic to the human condition, is totally bass-ackwards. I think some of y'all watch too much cable news. I associate Candy D. with smooth, pop-jazz, and sort of a bastardization of her father's music with De Perikels (and later). Kelly is a bit more of a traditionalist than that, although she does traffic in some very populist moves and histrionics that are probably designed to sell records.

That's REAL nice. Do you know the dimensions?

Joe Diorio + Steve Bagby -- Straight Ahead To The Light -- (Spitball)

Dave Bailey -- One Foot In The Gutter -- (Epic, JP)

Göteborgs Musikvartett -- s/t -- (SJR, Swe)

yeah... agreed, but I think we cis mostly-white, somewhat straight males in the jazz peanut gallery are beginning to grasp the implicit biases in our understanding of how and why cultural work is created, and there's going to be a lot of weird pivoting until once again we can say something sucks with impunity.

Yeah, Mazzarella is fantastic.
