Thanks; yeah, I figured that band would've hit Slugs' at some point.

Yeah that’s a great record and Mal plays lovely on it. I don’t think it will bother me as well with McCoy it was just something I noticed. I do wonder if Keith Jarrett would have played it 🤪
Did Jarrett play at Slugs'? Good question.

I think that these could be done as downloads and I'd be fine with it.

I subscribed to the series and am fine being patient. They are a very small operation, clearly in it for the love of the (glorious) music rather than for money. Very pleased with what they've released so far.
that's true, but the initial hype versus the delivery time ratio is a bit lopsided in my opinion.

For sure he did! Unforgettable, those solos...

And 100x better than the Five Spot atrocity Mal Waldron had to wrestle with on those Eric Dolphy albums.
oh, but that thing... it had a lot of personality and Mal made it his own.

How long do we have to wait until we identify tracks? Track one is a favorite of mine.

How about I take March for a little March Madness?

Yeah, it doesn't really bother me at the end of the day. I am more concerned about whether there's non-fill or any other pressing plant bugaboos on the vinyl. The Pookie's set was not manufactured all that well.

Sound quality seems fine. I don’t think Blue Note would have picked it up if it wasn’t. Am I the only one hearing that the piano sounds a little out of tune? Haven’t heard it trough good speakers yet I must say so that might be the problem.
Slugs' piano was kinda rough (cf. the Rashied Ali Quintet at Slugs'). It is definitely out of tune.

If Dusty stocks 'em I will grab. It is a bit tiring, I must admit.

I've seen more copies of Hum Dono offered for sale than I have Movement... the original is exceedingly rare. No, I don't have either...

Not really true, I've had this CD since it came out in 2012:
ditto.

Endesha Obe -- didn't he disappear ferrying "supplies" over the Gulf of Mexico at one point?
Fascinating character, regardless, and he engineered a lot of really interesting records.

This was a report from a friend who got a preview copy. I have yet to hear the set.
-
No worries! That is a full day of music... both sets were excellent. Fiedler's trio is going into the studio to record soon, and the music on that forthcoming CD is superb. They are a super tight unit, and Joe's post-Mangelsdorff multiphonic creativity is well on display.
-
Ah, I have a few of these that I didn't identify at first... got busy and lost time to go back and play around with it some more. But a superb BFT for sure, much great listening here.
-
Hope to see some of y'all in the Tub tonight!
-
Yeah, that Carl Stone concert was fun! Hadn't seen him in almost 20 yrs.
-
yeah, read that as well. Nuts.

My uncle lives west of Asheville, and was out of touch until an hour or so ago. He and his house are fine, but it is a complete mess around there. Unbelievable devastation.

That's a Cecil Taylor record, period. But it's filed under C anyway...and not for Cecil.
But Coltrane smiles!!!
I have that as Cecil Taylor's "Hard Driving Jazz" on United Artists, with the race car cover. It stays in T. It's a pretty strong album, actually. The band plays well with Cecil and even Dorham, who famously hated the circumstances and supposedly tried to undermine the whole thing, comes off sounding good.

Saw Collier with Dave Burrell, William Parker, and William Hooker. To say he/they were taking it "there" would be an understatement.

1 is Mau Mau by Art Farmer & Quincy Jones, notably heard on "Work of Art."
7 is driving me crazy. Seems so familiar, very much in the BAG vein. Enjoy it immensely.
