The Crownhate Ruin - Until the Eagle Grins - (Dischord) Now, Green River - Come on Down - (Homestead)

Whoa.

That Slide record is great. I have a few contemporaneous Pathe LPs that are also pretty hot so it's not too surprising.

You lucky in Dallas.

Nice scores. The Half Price Books outlets here charge $29.98 for routine green label Prestiges.

I should nab these MMO records by Mal at some point.

Kenny Dorham - Afro-Cuban - (BN Toshiba mono)

Lake can be both soaring and searing!

This was in reference to Clifford Thornton's post (#46). Wonder also why that Zodiac remains unreissued! Rare as hen's teeth. Had the chance to buy it for 200$ years ago and I balked. That would be a steal these days.

Thanks for the address - I'll definitely write him. Cheers! CA

A good article on Andrew White is available here. I have a few of his records but would like to pick up more of them (any DC folks with his contact info - it would be much appreciated).

Royal Trux - untitled - (Drag City)

looking forward to these & hope I can tune in.

I really, really don't like Moran's music but Hersch is a fine player. I'd be curious to hear someone more educated than me speak honestly on Moran's thing.

Yeah, though for some reason they allowed a re-recorded drum part on one piece... just skip that track, I guess.

Tusques is almost inaudible on balafon, but the amplified kalimba from Freeman is pretty far-out sounding. Evan Chandley's also in fine form (he was in the Cohelmec Ensemble - great French avant-garde band). Those are things I also remember from this one. You really need to check out Selwyn Lissack's Friendship Next of Kin. Burning album with Terroade, Freeman, Harry Miller, Mongezi Feza and Mike Osborne. The tune "Love Rejoice" is played with even more fire (and better drumming) on the Lissack.

Funny, whenever originals come up for sale they're either sealed or trashed. Again, looking forward to this - and Sangrey is clearly more familiar with its cast than I am.

Peter Brotzmann - Nipples - (Calig black-label orig) Peter is 70 years young today!

It's been a while since I've listened to it, but if memory serves it's quite out albeit with some occasional introspective breaks.

A few of those names are familiar to me - Leonard Brown, Lester Lumley, Jerome Harris.

Thanks - looking forward to hearing this.

Graham Collier Music - Darius - (Mosaic)

There are on-demand CD-Rs from Black Saint/Soul Note and ESP floating around, too.

Probably not.
