Have the following versions of that composition:

crazy she calls me    1254    Atlantic (jap)    The Jimmy Giuffre 3
crazy she calls me    3121    Vanguard    Free Wheeling - Ted Brown Sextet
crazy she calls me    45956    RCA Victor (jap)    The Horn`s Full-Jack Montrose Allstars
crazy she calls me    8209    Verve    Very Cool - Lee Konitz

I would like to add to your collection this one : Spontanuity | Allan Praskin Quintet | Allan Praskin (bandcamp.com)

It´s a wonderful version of that ballad and I also have played it with Allan Praskin earlier this year. Here it is in Db as I told you. 
Allan is my favourite alto saxophonist, my idol since 1978 and though I never was a student, his musical advices or just listenig to him on the bandstand is my most beautiful experiences.....

Takeru Muraoka------Takeru-----(Superfly/Universal) 2021 reissue of 1970 date.

 

Takeru sounds quite in debt to Wayne Shorter to my ears. Fine set

Thanks for the recommendation.  Dont have records with Praskin as leader  but have heard his name here and then together with other european recordings.

He is also member in the Vaclav Zahradnik big band from CSSR which I have. But that is all I can remember.

I love that one. Have been after an original for many years -- no luck -- but the reissue sounds just peachy to my ears.

Really ? But since his move to Europe (first Germany, since it was Gunter Hampel who brought him to Europe) he has been one of the most busy jazzmen over here, with enthusiastic write ups in Jazz Podium and other press. 

It would be almost impossible to not have heard his name and seen him play in the most famous jazz venues of Germany, Austria and many many other European countries. 
He was our hero here in Vienna, when he played with the best guys, no one could play bop as well as avantgarde with such dexterity and musical enthusiasm like him. 
And last not least he was the first important jazz man, with whom I had the honour to play and still do on several occasions. And he was one of the best educators, teachin´ jazz at Bruckner conservatorium in Linz.... look out for him he really burns...... look at least at some video stuff on youtube or whereever......

b) I like that you say CSSR. Those were the days when I still could know which country where is, I performed at some jazz festival still in CSSR and other Eastern European countries as well. But I didn´t know that Allan played there.

Great record. I have the old JVC issue from the 80s (not the original Victor, alas). Cornpipe Dance is wonderful but the whole album "shreds."

[Clunky]

Next ...Miyazawa Akira-----Bull trout------(Victor/HMV) -another very fine piece of Japanese free(ish) jazz. Recent reissue.

[clifford_thornton]

Great, great album. Traded a nice Sun Ra record for an original some years back. Probably a lopsided trade in their favor but I prefer the Bull Trout.

Carla Bley, Steve Swallow, Andy Sheppard - Andando El Tempo [ECM, Germany 2016]

Gorgeous music making. These later trio albums are a strong run.

Subjective musical value outweighs objective monetary value!

Oh yes this is such a great record. Very happy with the TP reissue. I have always loved the cover art. Showed it to my art teaching colleague that doesn’t know a lot about jazz: he said damn that’s a nice cover!

Mati Klarwein.  That graphic is a detail from this work:

It's interesting to see how many album covers used his work: https://www.wikiart.org/en/abdul-mati-klarwein/all-works#!#filterName:all-paintings-chronologically,resultType:masonry

Nice.  He was a very interesting, talented artist, very much of his time.
