It was noted today that she also paid Angela Davis' bail in 1970. She's a badass.

sorry I missed out on the Music of Islam box. Have quite a few LPs in this area but I'm sure the Celestial Harmonies box is stupendous.

he wouldn't let me buy him his beer one time. Got kinda mad that I offered, which was weird. Still like him as a player, A+.

I like early EP a lot so things like Karyobin, Summer 1967, Baptised Traveller et al really float my boat. Karyobin is simply a beautiful example of collective improvisation.

Cecil looks great in that spread.

Ken Pickering, founder of the Vancouver Jazz Festival and seemingly just about the nicest dude on the planet, has died. My only interactions with him were online but he seemed like a great guy. Will miss seeing his enthusiastic energy out there on the internet airwaves. https://vancouversun.com/entertainment/local-arts/vancouver-jazz-fest-founder-ken-pickering-dies-after-cancer-battle

Karyobin rules. The new Emanem remaster is glorious.

Good finds upthread, sidewinder. I have the Foot Patting version of that Griffin LP as well; cost a bit more than 3 pounds alas.

I don't think any of the records translate experiencing him live (especially when he was a bit younger and more forceful), although a few come close. Conic Sections, The Snake Decides, and the later Schlippenbach Trio titles are great places to start. Agreed about the rhythm section of Edwards and Sanders... beastly! Seeing the Schlippenbach Trio in Berlin in 2002 was life-changing for me.

Hopefully that Venn diagram of subscribers and sex offenders would have minimal overlap.

I still think about Barton from time to time. It's hard not to. Wonder if the editors of DB know the story?

good to see you back! Cohelmec Ensemble -- Hippotigris Zebra Zebra -- (Saravah, FR) hadn't dug this out in years but it's been on deck several times recently.

I used to have the original. It's a cool record but it was cooler to have big bux from selling it.

Have the same pressing. Would love to find a clean original -- fantastic music.

He's rad. I work with Robert Wilson and Eastman conducted some of the music for one of Wilson's late 70s works. They traveled in similar circles around the early 80s Downtown nexus.

Virgin Insanity -- Illusions of the Maintenance Man -- (DeStijl, US) reissue of this scarce custom-pressed original 'real people' folk rock LP from Texas.
