  1. I thought Clark had a heart condition or something but that's probably incorrect.
  2. From the cover of A Jackson in your House: Charles Clark (March 11, 1945-April 15, 1969)

  4. Nice - don't see one of those every day.
  5. Hmm. I have this on a Japanese Metronome LP from the '70s. Sound is excellent. I'm not sure the alternates would make me "need" this but regardless, it's a wonderful album that deserves consistent mention. The Metronome EPs (the original issues of this material) are pretty fancy looking, though I've never owned one.
  6. Has anything on the Circle label ever made it to CD? I've got a number of the LPs and they're all quite interesting.
  7. I think it shreds. I'm a Softs head to be sure. It's fairly "out".
  8. Ha! There are a lot that would fit this criteria for me. A LOT.
  9. My gmail crashed and I lost about two weeks of communication. If you emailed me recently about anything important, please follow up. Thanks.

  10. So, if you missed seeing Tristan Honsinger last Monday, there is another chance to see him on Saturday at 6 PM. Word on the street is that DMG will be hosting a trio performance with Tristan, Joachim Badenhorst and Thomas Heberer. It will rule.

  11. This might be of interest, but I interviewed Smalls' regular drummer Clifford Barbaro for the March NYC Jazz Record. Interesting dude.
  12. feedtime - s/t - (Sub Pop, from the boxed set reissue)
  13. Dinosaur Jr. - Green Mind - (Blanco Y Negro GER)
  14. Mudhoney - Every Good Boy Deserves Fudge - (Sub Pop, purple vinyl)
  15. Yes. It is a DVD of the concert (w/o extraneous stuff, so I considered it comparable to a CD release w/ visuals). Sorry to hear of your loss, but I'm glad you were able to help out and that he can live on through memories and music in your household.
  16. It is cold as a witch's tit so arm yrself at the Stone w/ KV, Fernandez, Joe Morris, Ben Hall et al. Lots of open seats yet.

  17. Mikolaj Trzaska/Olie Brice/Mark Sanders - Riverloam Trio - (No Business)
  18. Yeah, I want to check that one out for sure.
  19. Hopefully next time I hang out with Clifford Barbaro, we can delve more deeply into his Kung Fu DVD collection.

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

  21. 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.

  22. 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.
  23. Ugh. I'll spread the word and see what I can do.
