  1. those Brackeen Slikhearts are excellent. We have Dennis González to thank for their existence.
  2. Bill Barron and Allen Eager? no shit.
  3. Sad news! RIP.
  4. i would be down for a cover of 4'33".
  5. ha, sounds like someone needs some Byard Lancaster...
  6. Max Roach Quartet -- Live in Amsterdam -- (Baystate, JP)
  7. Charlie Nothing -- The Psychedelic Saxophone of... -- (Takoma, US)
  8. ooooooh still after that one!
  9. I put Bill Dixon in, although his music goes beyond 'jazz.' But I do enjoy Hank Mobley and am surprised he hasn't been inducted already.
  10. both deserving. Alcorn is mighty -- and been on the scene for quite some time, though outside of the contemporary jazz cognoscenti.
  11. one of mine too. Now, Musiques du Perou -- (Ocora, FR)
  12. American Primitive vol. 1: Raw Pre-War Gospel -- (Revenant, US) my introduction to a lot of this music and still one of my favorite compilations.
  13. Music of the Vai of Liberia -- (Folkways, US) gorgeous later Ethnic Folkways title.
  14. Josiah Steinbrick -- Meeting of Waters -- (Banana Environments, US) beautiful electro-acoustic percussive soundscapes housed in a handsome book of scores/artworks. Really a nice 'thing' as well as being a fine musical statement.
  15. Oh, I like him a lot! This one is superb:
  16. good band, terrible name!
  17. This. And emphasis on "decent." So far I find this music incredibly corny. But if he gets people to listen to artists like Wadada, then maybe it's worthwhile?
  18. Same. Jimmy Ponder and Frank Mitchell!
  19. Sometimes I wouldn't want to hire my friends to do what I consider a job.
  20. fantastic album. This one, along with most of my CDs, are in offsite storage... alas.
  21. Sam Rivers -- Sizzle -- (Impulse, US)
  22. it's interesting, but I wouldn't pay a lot of money to hear it.
