Good job it's on the borders as I'm sure the rarefied "village" of Highgate wouldn't tolerate the marauding hordes. I wonder if it's the old Sounds 323 site, that morphed into a very alternative stock on the heavier/darker spectrum so a step to Metal Edited May 12, 2024 by mjazzg Quote

No doubt Archway will soon get it's own Villáge treatment. It is founded by Lee Dorian, of Napalm Death and Cathedral fame. He has had a label of that name for ages and they opened the shop around the pandemic. It's generally him or his wife in there. Surprisingly little metal, although well chosen. It has a good jazz selection with interesting stuff - far more interesting than many jazz shops' own selections. Prices are okay. Barnes cost £15, which is roughly what I'd expect these days. Quote

He was described as 2nd generation bop player or so, but somehow I have the impression that after that he slightly disappeared from the main jazz scene. I once saw him live at a festival, some nice tunes but nothing exceptional, he had a completely unknown rhythm section. But it was somehow unkind for Richie Cole, because one day before Jackie McLean had played on the same stage with Bobby Hutcherson, Herbie Lewis and Billy Higgins, and you know Jackie McLean is about all I want to hear on alto, it´s the non plus ultra for me. Leningrad, how much would I like to see it, people who had been there described it as something magic. We had a neighbour lady who went on holiday only to visit the URSS during those years. Quote

Definitely NOT mutually exclusive, I would think! Just two different angles on the same thing: musicophilia. Different jobs, different "responsibilities." Edited May 14, 2024 by HutchFan Quote

Junior Cook is great and I have seen him together with Bill Hardman, or also with Louis Hayes as I think. 4 hours ago, HutchFan said: On my turntable now: Dexter Gordon - At Montreux with Junior Mance (Prestige, rec. 1970) with Martin Rivera (b) and Oliver Jackson (d) A voluble Dex strutting his stuff. I don´t have that, I think with a few exceptions I have a big hole in my Dexter discography. I have the early Savoys and Dials, some of the Steeple Chase and later the CBS LPs after his return to the States. It may be that the reason was that Dexter in the late 60´s and early 70´s was not my main focus, it was a time when his playing might not have been so much in fashion in the USA. But I think I remember I heard a Dexter Gordon at Montreux from that same time at someone´s place and it was more interesting for that time, since it had Fender Rhodes and electric bass, so it might have been more "modern" at the time I heard it......., but really: I became a fan of Dexter only after I had learned that there were men before Mingus, who´s names were Bird, Diz, Fats, Bud, .......and naturally: Dexter !
