Joseph.

I just send shit back if it ain't right. Usually. I mean, pressing quality varies and most BYGs, ESPs and Americas aren't going to sound like a quiet Japanese pressing. Even Liberty-era BNs can sometimes be a crapshoot. I think I even have a couple of Oguns and Derams that aren't so hot. So... just do your best and if it's common enough, you'll find it again.

Oh right, forgot about that one. And this one, which I dearly love: The Baden-Baden Free Jazz Orchestra - Gettin' To Know Y'All - (MPS) Fucking firestorm of a piece, w/ AEC horns + Skidmore, Surman, Breuker, Oxley, Steinmetz, Delcloo, McCall, Phillips, Palle Danielsson, Heinz Sauer, et al.

He's on a number of non-AEC BYG Actuels: Jimmy Lyons - Other Afternoons Archie Shepp - Blase Archie Shepp - Yasmina, A Black Woman Alan Silva - Seasons Sunny Murray - Sunshine There's also a nice duo with Phillip Wilson on IAI.

Too bad that none of the writers discussing Kidd in the press are up to snuff.

All I can add is "welcome" and yes, do stick around and give us your impressions of the music. If you're just getting started with this music but are committed and interested, I don't think any of the pre-1968 BN titles would do you wrong.

Happy Birthday, and hope it's not a "trainwreck."

Great one! Got the Uniteledis French pressing of that set.

I prefer Little with, as durium put it nicely, a closely-voiced (but just-dissonant-enough) front line. Maybe that's why the Time LP has never moved me. I've seen that Island issue, as well as a Bainbridge reissue. Did they do a dub remix?

I'm not feeling the Time LP. I have a mono Japanese LP of it.

There are some seriously rare/odd early Garbarek LPs if one puts their popsike goggles on. Those early '70s issues on Norwegian Philips look interesting. Anybody heard these?

Bump for Clem and Emmylou...

I'll have to dig into that broadcast. Only know Pullen from his work with Milford and Giuseppi, as well as a bit of the Mingus-Adams material. But there's obviously more to work from here.

Yeah, my Nano conked so this is my next purchase... if I can stay away from orig Euro free jazz LPs for a while, that is!

You haven't seen my plan for a BFT yet, then... I always thought Elegant Soul had the better cover.

"Time's Encomium" = "I tried so hard to quit you!"

This has always been my favorite of the Booker Little leader sessions. Definitely dig his work with Max a lot - that Mosaic box is essential!

Wow. Beautiful stuff.

Theo Loevendie - Orlando - (Waterland) w/ Dulfer, Gorter, Van Duynhoven

Got mine today and a nice bonus, too. All look crisp. Thanks!

Mine's a bit hissy in that "From Despair To Hope" (typical NJ pressing), though luckily I also have the CD.

That Candid trio CD I shamefully forgot about. The PJ is a bitchin' LP. I haven't spun my Barnaby/Candid vinyl of How Time Passes in a few years, but this is a good reminder - if I can find it in storage, that is...

No shit. A great, great album.

I grew up in Topeka. Would've been sweet to see him play there - I was in the area a couple of weeks ago.
