Does anyone here own this? Not that I know of! Part of the session was issued on a Savoy twofer, but it's incomplete. Fuck that, I would rather have the whole thing! I used to have a cassette of it, but all my cassettes were flooded some years ago.

Though not in print on CD, Jazz Realities (Fontana) is excellent! Featuring Mantler, Carla Bley, Lacy, Kent Carter and Aldo Romano in a strong 1966 quintet formation, it's very high on my list of '60s jazz LPs. There was a Japanese CD of this session released in the late '80s/early '90s, though ironically the vinyl is probably more common.

Cool!

Isn't 'Hum Dono' supposed to be reissued soon? If not, could provide a CDR if you're desperate! I had a copy of 'Le Temps Fou' when it was released but it seems to be lost I was at the recording session! Wow... and a bummer to have lost it! I have a CDR of that (and Hum Dono, thanks to sidewinder) but would love original vinyl copies. Both are excellent sessions!

My vinyl and I haven't reached that stage yet...

There was one on Clean Feed I thought decent... saw him with Dave Burrell and William Hooker a couple of years ago and was impressed.

I think some of his health problems surfaced in the late '70s/early '80s. Yeah, that Lee set is bananas...

I never really heard the Max-Tony connection myself. Roy Haynes, maybe.

Me too.

Will the real Thelonious please stand up?

Or, for me, Joe Harriott - Hum Dono - (Columbia) Another one: Marion Brown - Le Temps Fou - (Polydor)

Wow, that is terrible news! His trio sides on Futura are really wonderful, too... RIP

I don't have one Qbico LP that actually sounds good or is pressed very well...

Michael Cosmic - Peace in the World (Cosmic) Marzette Watts - Marzette Watts Ensemble (Savoy) Michel Portal - Our Meanings and Our Feelings (Pathe) Chris McGregor - Very Urgent (Polydor) New Phonic Art - Drama/Correspondences (BASF) and a fair number more!

He has had some mouth problems which do limit his playing somewhat. Still, that disc is fine and he sounds good. I recommend it highly.

Yes indeed. I have a cheap reissue LP of it (on BYG), and have enjoyed it very much! History professor, eh? What area?

Assume you have all heard the new one on Capri? Excellent stuff, with Cyrille, Billy Harper and sundry others...

Surprised you don't dig the rest of the LP... but "When," my god!

Almost hit one driving between Lawrence, KS and Topeka. Pretty far out.

Nice! Mine is only a King... but it was cheap!

Inspired by another thread, Roscoe Mitchell - Sound - (Delmark)

Umm, why were they sharing a bed in the first place?

I dunno... I just had a sober spill on my pants (of beer), so I suppose not! I may be drunk later, however.

Polydor was an entirely different story over in Europe, where Emergency I and II were also issued. A lot of very uncommercial music has that logo!
