  1. Both "Ramblin'" and "When Will the Blues Leave?" are on the original lp, so they may have been cross labeled on the cd. I think the IAI LP is mis-labeled also; will have to check. I seem to remember some weird issue with it...
  2. Glenn Branca - The Ascension - (99 Records) Gotta love those guitar armies!
  3. My copy of the Paris date sounds rather good, fwiw...
  4. Yeah, that rec is great, and the liners are totally hilarious... Thanks for the story, Chuck. A classic.
  5. His first on Black Saint isn't too scarce - same title as the label! Also the stuff with Max Roach, of which I have a little bit. I don't know how much of that material made it to CD - vinyl albums on Horo and East Wind, I think.
  6. Yeah, all I have for Russell boots is some stuff with Farrell (courtesy DP!), from the above session. I checked my notes, and it's actually from a Paris gig. You know, I've never bought those Brains on Fire records. Maybe next time I see one...
  7. Yeah, good way to go out if you ask me...
  8. High school champ, iirc...
  9. Speaking of Coursil, I wonder if the (supposedly complete) session he cut for ESP (with Marion Brown, Rashied Ali and probably one of several likely bassists) will ever see the light of day? Tapes do exist...
  10. That's a great record. Jack Graham was a cousin of Joe Henderson's, according to Sunny "grain-of-salt" Murray. He died not long after the record was made - apparently smack got to him (or he to it). As of now, the Calibre edition is the only one still lurking.
  11. Right. There's more material than was issued on this disc, actually. Quite a bit more.
  12. "Ginza Samba" is the shit.
  13. I don't like encores either. I'd rather be left wanting "more" than "less."
  14. That would be an interesting group to hear. I guess this would've been a year before the Warwick LP, which is a neat little date.
  15. Just to reiterate, then, not the FMP box?
  16. And, for posterity: Norman Howard (tp) Joe Phillips (as) Walter Cliff (b) Corney Milsap (d) I think all but one of the tunes are Phillips'; don't have the disc with me right now.
  17. Too bad - lotta great stuff from those years.
  18. Yup. Great session!
  19. I've got it on the Vocalion CD but I really must pick up that vinyl. Find the last track a bit 'routine' though. The last track is weak.
  20. Alas, no photos. The Cherry is good.
  21. You're very right about that, and I've been thinking how to put it to Bernard and the crew. Maybe I'll just forward him this post... It's a mix of Joe Phillips, somebody else, and my article comes last. I don't really know what's going on...
  22. With the Ornettes I have given up on the vinyl and go for the 'Beauty Is A Rare Thing' CD set. Heresy, I know.. I have all but To Whom Who Keeps a Record on LP. Most are stereo, and sound good enough to me. Plus, all of them were less than $10. On deck: Sunny Murray & the Untouchable Factor - Charred Earth - (Kharma) Billy Bang Survival Ensemble - New York Collage - (Anima) The Sunny: more boring than I remembered; the Bang: more amazing than I recalled...
