  1. Enjoy! It's a good show. One of the best lineups of the collective, IMHO.
  2. Saw Hermeto Pascoal last night. Quite the entertainer! And at 80 years old, he's an amazing bundle of energy. A very talented group of musicians around him, too. Glad I finally got a chance to see him after all these years.
  3. I definitely need to spend more time with that set!
  4. I've heard that all the venues are in walking distance around the downtown area.
  5. Next year is looking more and more like a real possibility. Down Beat had a nice overview of the week: Big Ears Festival Embraces Jazz Experimentalism
  6. Woody Shaw Muse Sessions or maybe wait for the Clifford Jordan Strata-East Sessions to come back in print.
  7. I've been hearing great things - both the performances and the venues. Nice review in RS, too: Big Ears 2017: Where Jeff Tweedy Is Noise Star, Symphony Plays on Floor
  8. R.I.P. Arthur
  9. Anyone at (or ever been to) this festival? It's one of the more interesting lineups I've seen anywhere. A wide variety of music centered in downtown Knoxville, TN. I'm seriously thinking of going next year. Big Ears
  10. Two in one week: Chuck Berry, and now Chuck Barris!
  11. I saw this show when we were in London a couple of years ago. https://www.royalacademy.org.uk/exhibition/richard-diebenkorn
  12. Saw a nice showcase at SXSW last week sponsored by the British Underground / Jazz Re:freshed organizations. There were some very talented young musicians there, including GoGo Penguin, Native Dancer and the Moses Boyd Exodus.
  13. Diebenkorn/Matisse at SFMOMA. Go see it if you're in the Bay Area. A real eye-opener, but important to get the audio tour to fully understand the relationship.
  14. But probably not going to be issued again on CD any time soon.
  15. Some great music, for sure. Not to mention that most of it will be very difficult to find now that it's OOP.
  16. you got THAT right, AGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGG!!!
  17. Oh, NOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO!!! Not AGAIN! Have a great one, FREEEEEEEEEEE!!!
  18. Tortoise is coming here (SF) in April, too. I'll probably go.
  19. I was going to mention that JoeHen set, too. I got it several years ago REAL cheap - I think it was being remaindered at the time. Excellent stuff!
