The "Business Meetin'" sides w/Gerald Wilson

So Bruce Soord is now in the remix/remaster biz, like his friend Steven Wilson?

Good choice! 😎

Tomorrow night

That was my understanding, too. But I thought it was possible they made some headway with digital remastering. I'll pass on this.

Has anyone heard the 2011 Esoteric Recordings remaster of this? One reason I've always had trouble with it is the poor quality of the recording. Is it significantly better? Here's their description: +++ The Tony Williams Lifetime: Emergency! CD RE-PRESS: CD ORIGINALLY RELEASED IN 2011 REMASTERED UK CD EDITION OF THE CLASSIC DEBUT ALBUM BY TONY WILLIAMS’ LIFETIME – FEATURING JOHN McLAUGHLIN and LARRY YOUNG BOOKLET WITH FULLY RESTORED ARTWORK & NEW ESSAY Esoteric Recordings are pleased to release the first album by the legendary jazz / rock / fusion outfit Tony Williams’ Lifetime. The group was founded by former Miles Davis drummer Tony Williams in 1969 out of his desire to fuse the influences of modern jazz and rock music. Recruiting legendary British guitarist John McLaughlin and organist Larry Young, Williams recorded the album “Emergency!”. It was a stunning and seminal work that divided critics in both jazz and rock but is now rightly regarded as being a groundbreaking work. This Esoteric Recordings edition is remastered and features the original album artwork and an informative essay.

I never get tired of this

BTW, if you're still looking for Merch, you can order it here: Abbey Road - Official Store 😎

I was there about 4 years ago, and they absolutely had a gift shop. They have a special entrance on the side of the building for the store.

Tonight I saw an astounding 'outside jazz' performance by the “Being & Becoming” trio of Peter Evans, Tyshawn Sorey & Nick Jozwiak. A rare West Coast tour.
