[jeffcrom]

Max Roach - The Many Sides of Max Roach; the cheap 1970s reissue on Trip, which doesn't sound bad at all.

[Homefromtheforest]

Masahiko Togashi/Mototeru Takagi "isolation"

Rashied Ali/Frank Lowe "duo exchange"

And to shake things up with some quartet action:

David Murray "let the music take you" with the great Johnny Dyani on bass!

[jeffcrom]

Some final weirdness before bed:

MEV/AMM: Live Electronic Music Improvised (Mainstream). If you're following along at home, be aware that "Most, if not all, copies of this record have the labels switched." I figured that out on my first spin of this years ago.

Re: MEV/AMM...Hmmm haven't played my copy in a few years....I'll have to check now to see if my copys labels are reversed!

[brownie]

André Hodeir 'American Jazzmen Play Andre Hodeir' (Savoy, red label)

[jeffcrom]

Re: MEV/AMM...Hmmm haven't played my copy in a few years....I'll have to check now to see if my copys labels are reversed!

Given that both pieces are side-long electronic improvisations, it's not as easy to tell as it would be with some albums. But the real AMM side has several segments of silence spliced in at various points, to make some conceptual point that I don't pretend to understand.

[clifford_thornton]

The AMM performance is a series of excerpts from a concert that was later released in full on Matchless (The Crypt 12 June 68).

Still need the MEV on Horo!

And my labels are also reversed.

[clifford_thornton]

Hackamore Brick - One Kiss Leads To Another - (Kama Sutra)

[jeffcrom]

Woody Shaw - Night Music (Elektra Musician)

[brownie]

[Kevin Bresnahan]

King Curtis plays the great Memphis hits - Atco stereo

MG

King Curtis plays the Great Memphis what?!?! Oh, hits! At first glance I thought it said something completely different. Ha ha.

[hvbias]

Milestones, 6-eye mono

I thought since this was a Mainstream release prices on it might be reasonable but uh, nope!

[clifford_thornton]

Nah, it's around $50-$70 these days. The Sonic Arts Union LP also gets there sometimes – that's one of my favorite "new music" albums.

Mainstream label psych records can get pretty expensive as well.

[jeffcrom]

Dave Brubeck - Brubeck in Amsterdam (Columbia)

[Homefromtheforest]

I love the sonic arts union lp!

[jeffcrom]

Armand Hug - New Orleans Piano (Golden Crest). Someone was impressed with Hug's playing on my just-completed blindfold test. I like it, too - as influenced by Jess Stacy as by Jelly Roll Morton. The great Paul Barbarin is on drums here.

[jeffcrom]

Gary Clark Jr. - HWUL Raw Cuts Vol. I (Warner Bros.)

[brownie]

[clifford_thornton]

I love the sonic arts union lp!

Yes, it's a classic. My friend Andrew Raffo Dewar is writing a book on the group and their activities.

Also not to be missed is David Behrman's Wave Train album on Alga Marghen, which collects some related music under the composer's direction.

[Chuck Nessa]

Listening to a relatively current cd by a vibes player and had to stop to listen to some Bobby Naughton.
