Open Sky - s/t [PM Music]

David Liebman - Sweet Hands [Horizon A&M]

the former has dated less than the latter

and now...

Masahiko Togashi Quartet - We Now Create, Music For Strings, Winds And Percussion [JVC]

which sounds bang up to date

Posted

It astounds me every time I listen to it. I've not owned it for long but I'm sure it's not just novelty. It sounds so fresh and vital. It's one of those few albums I have where I always find it difficult to choose what to play next - often silence is the answer for a while

I have this board to thank for discovering Togashi. Initially a post by Jeffcrom of "Spiritual Nature" then subsequent posts by your good self  and Homefromtheforest have kept the fire stoked

Spiritual Nature is awesome. I bought that JVC LP of We Now Create maybe 10 years ago and it was one of the first Japanese avant-garde LPs I picked up. Of course there are a lot of records in that category, many of them quite good, but Togashi's consistently remain among the best.

Circle - Paris Concert [ECM]

I was interested to discover elsewhere on the board today that there are two other live Circle albums about which I knew nothing

And, more importantly, which are both far superior to the ECM.

Nat Adderley "introducing" (wing, DG USA)

Various "new blue horns" (riverside, DG mono USA". Only the first mono issue has the "flugelin the blues" track by Clark Terry with Thelonious Monk.  The stereo issue has a totally different Clark Terry track without Monk.  Collector nerd trivia for those who care!

Dizzy Reece "star bright" (blue note, 47 w 63rd mono ear DG USA)

Keshavan Maslak, Han Bennink, Misha Mengelberg - Humanplexity [Leo]

my belated intro to Maslak. This is good

yes, it's pretty good. My favorite Maslak is the duo with Charles Moffett on Soul Note. The trio with Mark Miller and Sadiq Shahid is enjoyable too (records on Circle and Waterland). I've never had the second Leo with Lindberg and Murray but would imagine it's quite nice.
