    Nice - the only Wright leader LP I still need!

    with Gary Peacock and Turning Point also have some nice Motian bits.

    First time in my life, picked for a kickball team. Take that, grade school.

    Wow, wish I'd been there! Have little interest in Lovano's recordings from the ones I've heard, but I'm always game for dudes getting rugged.

    There's a first time for everything, including hearing Relatively Clean Rivers.

    But are you a costumer?

    The Elvin BNs are great. I passed on Genesis for years because of its goofy cover, but I picked up a nice original maybe two or three years ago for $5 and totally dig it.

    I've only seen the original of that LP one other time, in Dick Wright's collection. Absurdly rare.

    Huh.

    On the air from now until 10 PM tonight via Koop.org - tune in and get turned on!

    Good luck! I'm a little tight these days myself, else I'd jump on the HRS.

    Mine is a King and it sounds great.

    PM sent for a couple from the first list.

    I've got a real soft spot for Mohawk and the Cursons, but they are all very good records.

    If you could pry anything out of the Fontana and Polydor catalogs, there are some really incredible gems to be found. Many of the Dutch/UK Fontana titles that focused on American artists are held by Alan Bates, but I'm not sure how deep his ownership of the material goes. I was talking with another label guy who was trying to get pianist Jym Young's Puzzle Box reissued, for example, though I don't know if anything came to fruition with that. It's an excellent and virtually unheard 1966 Bay Area post-bop session that came out on International Polydor (Germany) a few years later. I mean, whether or not it's "peerless" I don't know, but it's really strong and swinging.

    Yeah, I saw him on a gig with Byard Lancaster and Harold E. Smith shortly before he passed and in that context, Harley's bagpipes worked... in a way. It was an interesting set.

    I have to say that Circuit des Yeux really brought it last night. The power-trio formation is pretty incredible; vague whiff of Kendra Smith fronting a Bad Moon Rising-era Sonic Youth, perhaps? Anyway, go see her/them at End of an Ear today. You won't be disappointed.

    Yeah, Jeanne's people don't want that happening for less than an obscene amount of money.

    I've got one forming - in its nascent stages - on my right eye and I'm 35. Glad the surgery was a success and from the sound of things, not too complex.

    I can see everyone's images just fine... I'm on Firefox.
  22. clifford_thornton
    Much later, but still interesting.
  23. clifford_thornton
    Time to post some French and Swedish Atlantics with alternate covers, eh?
  24. clifford_thornton
    Ah, the RAU!
  25. clifford_thornton
    Mingus - Oh Yeah - (Atlantic, red & green) I was up late drinking beer and watching movies, so this is clearing my brain pretty well right now.
