I am curious why the Kuhn Brothers date was reissued on CD by MPS, since it's an Impulse session. I mean, I know both of them had MPS dates later, but...

Whoa.

Sheesh - that's great news, really. Although my review runs in December; hope there are some copies left for readers to purchase!

ah, don't know Crook. Thanks.

Yeah, as they say "our loss is your gain." Picked up the Braxton piano music as well as some others I'd been curious about but never picked up. I'm sure I'll go for another ten on my next paycheck though the amount of time I have to listen to what I *should* be digging into is barely extant (no headphones at work!).

Yeah, an A-1 set. Many thanks Karl. More words soon.

Huh. I have some of his group discs and they're quite good.

$20 shipped gets these. The extra music on the Lowe makes this release much, much heavier than it was on initial release.

Oh dammit. RIP - this is very sad news. He is a fantastic and fascinating musician.

Huh. I don't have the Encore set, just a Japanese Toshiba vinyl of the regular ol' BN. Fine session though I guess in subsequent years the CBBB records have thrilled me more.

I was just saying I wasn't happy he died, dude.

I have enjoyed enough of Corea's music to say that generally, the cheesy record covers and past its prime fusion aside, I like him. Vitous & Haynes, Circle, some of the solo stuff, early RTF, etc. is all quite good to totally killer.

Yeah, Trombolenium is quite good. Neuph, too. There is much great Rutherford out there in about every configuration imaginable. I'm sad he passed before "we" were ready but he left a lot of work to be heard.

Welcome! Love the D-O blog!

Bitch Magnet - Ben Hur - (Glitterhouse) Too bad their reunion tour is not taking them anywhere in the US so far.

I've seen Wierbos solo - great - but never owned any of his solo recordings. There's also a solo Vinko Globokar on FMP (vinyl), which I don't believe has been reissued.

Yes! And balloons, among other things. Before coming out on Ring, it was privately issued.

Dead stock, I believe. I don't think there were as many copies out there recently as we'd thought/hoped.

Aha! Had a few things that were "frisbees" from him and stopped following the lists.

You probably outbid me

Well, the provenance is what's important. When Juma Sultan's collection of other artists' LPs was being sold off to generate cash for his website/online archive, almost everything was trashed. But it was kind of cool to see things like original Jihad and Coltrane Records vinyl from a brother who was there and actually making work with these people.

Oh my god - never seen that one! Killer!

Just arrived in the mail - looking forward to digging in!
