The Plimsouls "Everywhere At Once"

Got mine today. Very excited to see 2 photos and one track (Doktor Pitt) from April 12, 1981 at the Great American Music Hall in SF. I was there👍

Those guys have a good show. The problem for me is that they’re very vinyl-focused and I don’t buy vinyl any more.

Sound & Gravity Festival Interesting festival coming up next month. Very much in the Big Ears mold - small venues, multiple nights, etc. It's their first go-around so it's relatively small and MUCH cheaper, but many of the "usual suspects" you might see in Knoxville will be performing. I'm going to go to one night since I had planned to be in Chicago anyway.

Haven't dug into the music yet. Looks like some good live recordings of this band. Also lots of alt takes and demos (maybe too many, but that's OK)

Of course, whatever they announce on that day is extremely preliminary. They will continue to add on until showtime.

I still have vinyl OGs of Moontrane and Night of the Mark VII. My LPs have been boxed up for years, but I was going through some of them last year and was amazed to find that these 2 were valued on Discogs at $100-200 each. Yes! Absolutely! Ha Ha! This would be a great album for them to reissue, too. I have it on vinyl and also the ugly 32 Jazz CD

The NYT obit was pretty eye-opening for me. I didn't know a lot about her early life. She was definitely a survivor! I was fortunate to see her in 2019 at SFJAZZ in their small Joe Henderson Lab space with Cameron Brown. A wonderful show. Sheila Jordan, Fearless Vocal Improviser, Is Dead at 96

Great front line. Will definitely stream it, and if it's as good as it appears to be will probably by the CD, too.

When Zev released this announcement on FB today I asked him if there would be corresponding CDs for this project. His response: "... this is an analog LP series. As of now exclusive to vinyl. Thanks for your support." Fortunately I have a number of Muse albums on CD - including some of the ugly 32 Jazz releases and Woody Shaw's Muse Mosaic box. Still have some good vinyl too, but my LPs are in storage.

I just checked his website again. It's available and I ordered it. They must have received a LOT of requests.

This is my only vintage Mono BN, and surprised that it's not on the list

Yes! That's the one!

HBD to Roscoe! Photo from Big Ears Festival 2018 [Chuck was there, too!]

Thanks. I just "Joined"

This album really holds up

Saw the Davis, Shaw, Waits Quartet last year and they were excellent. They're all excellent musicians, so I wouldn't expect anything less. [Photo from Big Ears 2024]

Remastered 2CD+2Blu-Ray Expanded Edition Boxset. Always been a BIG fan of this album and am looking forward to the extra tracks and videos.

I was born in 1953 and remember my parents had an album or two of his. They liked him. Don't know how popular he was overall, but I think I remember seeing him on Ed Sullivan.

When I saw the obit I was shocked that he was still alive in 2025. Had no idea.

There's a nice Thiebaud retrospective exhibit at the Legion of Honor Museum in SF Wayne Thiebaud: Art Comes from Art
