I'm looking forward to it. When I posted it on Jazz Corner I only got naysayers. I thought Bollani's ECM solo album was possibly the worst effort from him I've ever heard though. I think he tried too hard to be ECM and his humor, eclecticism and quirkiness fell by the wayside.

My goodness! Do you know Opal? Not personally - just from gospel reissues, reviews, and the book he did. I knew him in the '80s and published him a couple of times. Are you talking about his book of drawings, The Nations of Rock & Roll? He had a great show of early R&B I think on the Bay Area Pacifica station.

You can shake it, you can break it, you can hang it on the wall.

Charnett is great when he's not grandstanding or playing an acoustic bass through a fuzz box. I've liked him when I've seen him with Ornette a couple of times, and he's great on Sonny Simmons' Ancient Ritual.

I only know Hammond from his brief stint with Mingus. I hope he doesn't sing on this one.

Not the DVD, I hope.
