space-rock duo Windy & Carl in homage to Archie Shepp's "The Way Ahead"

yeah, I remember when that came out. never heard it, but the cover is fun. from about 15 years earlier, and California:

Pepper Adams -- Encounter! -- Prestige, blue label

oh yeah, you are correct -- have both of those LPs.

different sessions/music, same band. Top one is on Polydor, bottom on Fontana (obviously)

exactly

wow, this is amazing.

I have most of 'em up through Gallery, and they're all choice. The Trio 3 material I've heard (and seen) has been excellent. Can't think of too many clinker experiences when seeing him, whether in small group contexts or with orchestra. Solo is the one formation I feel like I haven't witnessed live.

Berger doesn't want -- or didn't want -- the ESP reissued, and from what I understand he was able to get the masters/rights back. The mix is quite bad, actually, so I understand. It's a great record but it could use some help. I don't know if he feels the same way about the Milestone.

gotcha, thanks -- actually, our 2020 Subaru came with a CD player. No shit.

that and the Jym Young Trio I would be interested to hear but I do not use Spotify. Can this music be downloaded?

A Deal Supreme

Sad news. Interesting artist and musician for sure.

right, I've seen those and not picked them up for whatever reason. The ENJA record is quite good. Thanks.

Great album indeed. There's a Doxy LP boot of it for sure. I have an original -- amazing music, my copy has some unfortunate pressing bumps but it plays through! It's very, very hard to find in decent condition. Dusty Groove put out a CD of Spellbound, presumably licensed from Concord. I have the Status LP -- cool album, pressed like doo doo.

What was the deal with Honeydew? I only have one album on the label, the Dizzy Reece LP.

the only one of those I have is the Abdul-Malik. I used to have the Mahones twofer.

the banality

Push Push has nothing on the Dave McKenna/Wilbur Little!

yeah, "Cool Dogs" and "Two Oranges" are both tunes on the record, a collection of 50s Frankfurt recordings which I'm sure she never got paid for.

I feel like it gives you a pretty good idea of what Elvin sounded like in person -- certainly from what I've read, Coltrane was hardly the loudest in the group!

Only have his recordings with Phil Woods but they are quite a pair -- I oughta check out his work outside of that context.

Academy in Manhattan had a copy in the last year or two, but I didn't check it out. It was "on the wall" and didn't last long.

Totally. Real heads know!

she is not my (or many folks') preferred Buffy.
