Christ he sounds like John.

I get mine for free.

Yet it also reminded me of the obnoxious post I wrote above yours!

Feldman is like Steve Lacy - beyond category. Feldman's music is gradated but not serial. (I mean "serial" in terms of minimal art, not in terms of serial music)

I'll bet it comes in really cute wrapping paper!

$6000 is just obnoxious.

Not a fan of Lanquidity myself. Cosmos was on Cobra originally, right? I don't have that one. The Horos are great, though I've never actually owned them (or been willing to pay the price to).

I would like to check out those books he recently had published. Corbett was a reader/advisor on my MA thesis, but I haven't talked with him in a while. He's doing the gallerist thing, and seems to be having a successful go of it.

Awesome! I tried emailing her a few times but never got very far. She's a true inspiration!

Indeed. I didn't give a shit about Getz until I heard "Ginza Samba."

Yeah, it's really fine. Can't wait to dig into Media Dreams. Now if they'll just reissue the Cairo Free Jazz Ensemble...

Mossy!

Well, Sunny tells "stories," as we all know... and Frank Lowe never mentioned it in interview, so who knows. But yeah, BYG were dubious. That is a whole 'nother bag.

Nice stuff but either on the "high end" of normal... to completely out of line. $100 for the Curson on Marge??

Yeah, I thought it was okay and had some nice moments of "density," but ultimately not a successful endeavor.

Could this be moved to the Upcoming Shows and Festivals end of things? It seems more a notice of gigs rather than a discussion.

Willie Jones looks like a pianist I should aim to hear, or at least try to.

...and, I'm sure mentioned elsewhere, Giorgio Buratti.

Some of the stuff lost in the Atlantic warehouse fire would be nice... Also, this one (which may be an invented one) from Sunny Murray: I created my label in 1969, my record Love's Last Cry and I called my company Infinity. On the record was Jimmy Garrison, Lonnie Liston Smith; it was Frank Lowe's first record, Alan Silva, Joe Lee Wilson was singin'. There was a guitar player, [and] I forget his name but he had a shop on 8th Street, 8th and 2nd Ave. And five children singing, three of them was Alan's and two of 'em was mine. It was a beautiful album. And I brought that one to Europe and licensed it to BYG records and they gave me half the money and then they disappeared.

Will have to see that issue of CODA - don't get to read that one often enough. I penned the notes to that disc, though the Clean Feed space-cutting makes them read a little funny. Interestingly, they re-recorded all but one or two tracks live after being dissatisfied with the original studio album. I actually think both are great, and each offers a slightly different take on similar material. But I doubt the other takes will be commercially released...

I haven't heard that in years. Is it a Glitterhouse pressing (Germany), or domestic? Got old Sub Pop vinyl - Mudhoney, Green River, Soundgarden & almost bought a Fluid LP recently - but nothing too recent (within the past decade or so).

I'd love to get a tattoo of the front cover image from Spiritual Unity. But it'd be more pertinent, I guess, if I played the horn...

Jarvis recorded a great side with Johnny Dyani for Red Records in the early '80s.

Send Sunny $150 and he might send you a CD-R...

I would be interested to hear this. Can't explain why.
