    Yeah, I want to check that one out for sure.

    Hopefully next time I hang out with Clifford Barbaro, we can delve more deeply into his Kung Fu DVD collection.

    A Chinese meal so good it wakes you up... Who'd have thunk?

    Nothing like a little before-bed music. Tonight's choice: Dave Burrell's "After Love." some might not find this to be a particularly relaxing recording, but for me the canvas of sounds is quite stimulating. Also caught a gorgeous trio concert earlier featuring Nate Wooley, Ingebrigt Håker Flaten and Chris Corsano. Hope this trio records soon - they're on fire.

    Although no royalties are presently being passed along to the creators, there is also a very nice recording of the Gruntz band w/ Sahib Shihab, Don Cherry and Tunisian musicians floating around the internet. Fine fidelity and wonderful music. Hopefully it gets a proper packaging someday.

    Ugh. I'll spread the word and see what I can do.

    Another great moment of conversation and reflection with Kalaparusha at 14th street...

    I like that one. Now: Marzette Watts - Marzette Watts Ensemble - (Savoy)

    Also not to be missed is the related "Mahgreb Suite" on Ossiach Live, with the Surman trio, Limpe Fuchs, Jean-Luc Ponty and North African musicians.

    Am I crazy, or wasn't there some question whether it was Nichols on the piano?

    A charge of inspiration from a lengthy conversation with Alvin Fielder... always a good thing!

    Shit, sorry to hear this. RIP.

    Nice, but ain't nothin' on Barack Obama's Jazz.

    Jeez, thanks again for all the greetings and messages. You all rule. It's been a great week so far.

    Wish I'd heard it. When I interviewed Reece years ago, he was at work on a massive, multi-disciplinary tome of some sort. If/when it comes out, this would be something I'd be curious to read.

    Birthday dinner of ribeye with a red wine/mushroom pan sauce, mashed potatoes and roasted broccoli with red velvet cake for dessert (the latter from the Italian bakery down the street). Done treated right by Claire Odom!

    Thanks all! I'm feeling the love and it's great! It's been a busy day away from the computer, but at least I did get a cheapo hot sardine banh mi at the weirdo Vietnamese jewelry shop in Little Italy. Totes ruled.

    Thanks all! Busy day but now I can relax at home. Yeah, mine's BNLP 2 8A/8D and I wish I had 'em all! Beautiful music indeed... I've hassled Mats G about curating a Frippe/Bird Notes boxed set before but alas, such a project remains elusive. Hope to see something of the sort one day.

    how is that Clifford? Interesting line up indeed but hefty price tag to europe I didn't take to the 'year of the boar' release much and was underwhelmed by that line-up live but anything with Adasiewicsz is worth my attention I find It's good, but not "forceful" music in the way that The Thing or even Atomic are. Some of it is almost in the vein of 'post-rock' Chicago stuff. The sound and pressing/presentation is nice, though. I noticed that on the website it says "350 copies" but mine is signed/numbered "433/500." Now: Steve Lacy - Sideways - (Roaratorio)

    Ingebrigt Håker Flaten Chicago Sextet - Live at Jazz Festival Saalfelden 2011 - (Tektite)
  24. clifford_thornton

    Reverse Blue are kicking ass and taking names.

    I remember the Evans track from Live at the Festival being super odd, and pretty well dominated by Oxley's playing (which I like). This YouTube video sounds pretty rough. I probably don't need the disc.
