Hank rules !

No problem, Dmitry. That site is a treasure-trove of CBBB information. Yes, 'The Jamfs are coming' it is. If my memory is correct, 'Jamf' is a 'term of endearment' used by Johnny Griffin. B-)

Still waiting for caiman to say that they have shipped the £37 Tal set. I'll cut them some slack for the time being..

Mmm, dill sauce. What was the base? Peter - incredibly easy. Just melt a blob of butter and mix with chopped fresh garlic and add the dill.

You just beat me to it. Recorded 29th Oct 1969 according to this mighty fine site: Clarke/Boland Discog

One for the 'patina' fetishists..

Looks like if you do want to buy it from these guys its £83 from the marketplace seller in Germany ! Or you can trade up to the second-hand one at £195

I thought 'Agro' Mosaics came from those $11 Malaysian cowboys..

Grilled greek sea bass in a dill sauce last night. Yum ! B-) Hey, I'm a 'Master'....

Michael Garrick Sextet 'Black Marigolds' (Argo) with Joe Harriott, Ian Carr and poetry.. Great performance by Michael at the Barbican on Saturday, absolutely full of energy and enthusiasm.

Check out also Sam Rivers 'Contours' for some wonderful solo work from Herbie, real 'on the edge of your seat' stuff. Ditto also Bobby Hutcherson's 'Oblique'. He always sounds at his best on those BN sessions where Joe Chambers is the drummer.

From herein the artist previously known as 'sidewinder' if the 'Reverend Doctor Sidewinder Slim'..

Complete Keynote Box, LP 1 followed by: Bobby Hutcherson 'Now', Liberty/UA pressing. This Hutcherson LP is sort of 'of its time' but a very superior session from this vintage. Harold Land fits superbly into this idiom.

Now yet talkin' ! B-)

Well worth checking out. It features mainly the 'Jazz Warriors' in their collaboration with Blakey around 1986. Good snippets of ex-Messengers like Bobby Watson, Curtis Fuller, Shorter, Golson etc. Also some interesting 'drum clinic' footage of Blakey.

Or maybe they can get Mosaic to put out a set of the recordings in this fine series, sort of a la 'Master Jazz Piano'?

Funilly enough I was just watching a Blakey documentary on the TV (true) and Wynton was playing with Stanley Crouch in the audience, cheering.. :rsly:

Don't let these guys bring their long-boats on tour over here. Some things haven't changed for 1000 years

Toshiko Akiyoshi/Lew Tabakin Big Band 'From Toshiko With Love' (Baystate)

Also from around this vintage 'A Day In Copenhagen' (originally put out in Europe by MPS/Saba on vinyl) is a great one. Superb line up with Dexter, Dizzy Reece and Slide Hampton in the front line. Kenny Drew, NHOP and Art Taylor in the rhythm section. I'm always suprised it doesn't get more plaudits.

I won't rest until I hear this one. BN have gotta get this one on the racks !

Any of the Francis Wolff photos of Hank Mobley really but the one on the front cover of the 'Straight No Filter' LP and the one inside the 'Turnaround' RVG CD are probably my particular favourites. The one of Wayne Shorter on the cover of 'The All Seeing Eye' is also pretty damn great.

'Jazz Britannia' show at the Barbica, London tomorrow. Hosted by Gilles Peterson who will host a show featuring music from the 'Impressed' compilations. Lots of great UK names there - Surman, Westbrook, Garrick, Norma Winstone, Soweto Kinch. Televised by BBC4.

Splendid ! I have 3 DVDs also confirmed as on their way from them, including super-cheap Sun Ra 'Joyful Noise', the 'Jazz Scene' Adderley/Teddy Edwards and the Mingus documentary.

Welcome back John. At long last the BBC site has caught up with the news.. Smith Obit Noteworthy for what will probably be the first and last occasion of a Tina Brooks mention on BBC news
