I saw reference in a '68 Downbeat that Marion Brown guested with the Garbarek trio in Oslo. Would have been interesting to see/hear that.

Wow. They have a Gay Music category. Who knew? Seems to be only one band though -- the, ah, Flirtations. ... Yup. What, no Destination Out?

Sounds like it was a great show! I didn't know Parker was part of the Art Ensemble now. Can we start calling it the Roscoe Mitchell Art Ensemble again?

Lookout Farm definitely have their moments. I have heard live recordings from Space and Sunrise Studio in the 70s of various Liebman-Beirach aggregations and some of that shit is f'in heavy. Most of that vibe didn't make it onto the LPs, sadly.

With the exception of Guadalcanal Diary, whom I'm not familiar with, I never thought of any of the other ones mentioned as "pop music." Great rock bands, sure, but pop? Naahh. I highly recommend the True West Hollywood Holiday Revisited CD that Atavistic put out a couple years ago. I have and enjoy the self-titled EP and Drifters, but this adds some nice stuff to the mix.

Sounds up my alley. Thanks for the tip.

I like all those early Garbarek ECMs quite a bit, as well as the Esoteric Circle LP on Flying Dutchman. Wouldn't have pegged "Chicago" so much, but either way, they are interesting and quite heavy.

Hey Pierre, I'll see what I can dig up on this side of the pond as well. University of Texas jazz periodicals in back issues, etc.

Yeah, for decent to good seats it's up to $200 in Austin. Unbelievable.

Anthony Braxton's Ghost Trance Music.

I have it on CD. That's fine - not my first go-to of the 50s Mobley BNs.

I can deal with mono UA pressings okay, prefer a good King or recent-ish CD (not being able to plunk down on a w. 63rd).

Another tautology

I actually can't comprehend that trio working, but maybe I think of Evan differently than Evan thinks of Evan.

The Golden Age of Gospel Singing - (Folklyric) I didn't have any gospel, and this seemed like a good place to start.

If you do vinyl, they're fairly cheap and easy to come by. Pity that IN's catalog is woefully under-represented in the digital realm.

Got this in my to-listen pile as well!

Wow, thanks for the heads' up.

I don't know First Avenue but it does have that American Clave feel to it.

I particularly like that one. Living happily with a non-mono edition of it. (Fred Cohen's prices be damned!)

Probably the least 'talked-about' of the Mustevics but shit, it's verging on retarded. I wholly agree with your analysis. Reid & Boykins definitely made those Tyler LPs what they were. Surf Ravin' indeed...
