so the tapes for the Don Ayler on Jihad do exist and they are with an archive, not sure about licensing however.
(and I'd also add that I have no idea whether the tapes are in good enough condition to use)
What's the date? I'm not seeing it listed in the discography here:

Usually, Siegfried Busch is credited as "Sigi" Busch, rather than "Tiki." The personnel lines up with the Hear & Now period, but I'm not seeing this specific session.
Also: Ivo Perelman (b. 1961), Stephen Haynes (b. 1955), Takeru Muraoka (b. 1941), Ronald Shannon Jackson (1940-2013), Hadley Caliman (1932-2010). Good day for birthdays!
Understood on these fronts. It is a dark and difficult world scene. I deal with pretty intense depression, surely not the only person here who does, and though the board is a nice respite, music doesn't always do it for me. But this community has been a great help even when I am just pithily responding to some discographical query.
oh, huh, looks like I joined on January 9, 2004. I could have sworn it was earlier, but apparently the months/years run together. I do remember the BNBB shutdown and being informed that this was the place to go.
