Well, I'm happy with a nice later stereo pressing, as I am with many of these titles (and no stocks).

Yikes! That's crazy. And it's not even that nice a copy.

And Altschul had a lot of great things to say about Sam. Barry moved to Europe in the early '80s, and put the last regular Trio gigs at around that time as well.

And to chewy it's a sammich.

I think Revenant made too many of those. It doesn't have the crossover appeal/lavishness of the Patton box or the rock-completism of the Beefheart box. Don't get me wrong, some interesting and important music contained therein (and a fine book) - just think it could've been slimmed down and made in a smaller edition.

I've read that it has something to do with Steve Ellington's cymbal setup.

That's a fine one!

Hi everybody, I am being brought out to Fort Wayne to interview for an art library job. If I play my cards right, who knows, I may be posting from northern Indiana. My question is, are there any good record stores in the area? Not only jazz, but also rock/punk and outsider music? Thanks in advance. At least there is a natural grocery store there.

Ya, hope I get a red one.

Knife World - s/t - (Roaratorio)

I have a friend who's a bassist in a post-hardcore band who swears by this record. Thanks for the reminder - need to score a copy.

Now that I've ditched the Ginsberg beard, I use a Schick head on a nice, heavy steel shaft.

Right, and there's no Tony Snell on India Navigation!

I wouldn't be surprised, but Chuck probably knows more. I also heard a rumor that Bernard Stollman gave his "blessing" to Cummins to pick up where ESP left off - whatever that means!

I guess I never realized there was a For Two Pianos on Arista. Those small group records are classics.

Thanks, Ed. My copy of the Jarman and the LeRoi are both in storage and hadn't recalled that from Figi's liners. I don't have the Fire Music book you reference, but will have to keep an eye out. FWIW, I wasn't too impressed by the Tribe records I heard, though they seem a curious/unique lot. If I'm able to make successful contact with Moore, I'll follow up on these. It'd surely be interesting to hear from him if there was another tangent to his playing which has no recorded legacy.

I would buy the Braxton set in a second.

Wish I had been - cool music.

Well there you go!

Happy Belated!
