This may be tough for Mosaic to pull together, as they would have to draw from at least four labels to gather it all: Drumfusion (Columbia) A Different Journey (Reprise) Passin' Thru (Impulse) Man From Two Worlds (Impulse) Transfusion (Studio West) I agree that these are all fine records, and would make an excellent set. The last one consists of short tracks recorded for the US Navy, and first issued in the 1990's. Perhaps not as essential as the others, but interesting. Lloyd is also on Chico's previous Columbia LP ("The Chico Hamilton Special"), but the format is closer to the old Hamilton group, with cello and no Szabo. Szabo is also on The Further Adventures of El Chico and Chic Chic Chico.

You were lucky ! Try curry and/or chilli con-carne ! I have no problems with cumin/turmeric aromas. It's the flatulent stench of cruciferous vegetables that gets to me.

Two mainstream jazz artists at the same time at the Knit: I'm guessing it was during one of their summer jazz festivals.

For me the working group with Lloyd and Szabo was one of the all time great jazz groups--anchored in mainstream while pushing the boundaries--like such other contemporaneous groups as McLean-Moncur & The John Handy Quintet. The Man from Two Worlds never fails to blow me away. The fifties stuff sounds too "period" to me. I saw him once, maybe 7 or 8 years ago in Seattle, and he sang several tunes, quite awfully.

I always liked Lee, but was only familiar with her out stuff, e.g. with Hampel & Shepp. Then, in 2000 I saw her with Waldron, Workman & Cyrille at the North Sea Festival, only a few months before she died, doing standards and Waldron compositions, and was mesmerized. Easily one of my top 10 concert experiences in 40 years of jazz listening. After that I picked up everything I could find. I found that Stockholm CD at a used shop in Strasbourg. After Hours is probably my favorite.

Golden Circle 1 for sure. It's even a contender for my favorite Ornette album, period. Amazing rhythm section, infectious tunes. Moffett completely underrated. For me this is the sax trio that gave birth to the funky-free sounds of Rivers-Holland-Altschul, Surman-Phillips-Martin and Romano-Sclavis-Texier.
