jeffcrom Posted November 19, 2014 Report Share Posted November 19, 2014 New York Art Quartet - Call It Art (Triple Point); record two. And I guess I'm coming out of the closet as a buyer of this expensive and incredible box set. I didn't pay full price; I bought someone's promo copy. But after living with this set for four months, I have to say that it would have been worth the retail price. This is an incredible box set.

colinmce Posted November 19, 2014 Report Share Posted November 19, 2014 Take pride. As soon as I get my Cecil Taylor FMP box that one is next on the list! I hope the price isn't too inflated in 30 years... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I hope the price isn't too inflated in 30 years... I bought the Cecil Taylor FMP Berlin box when it was issued. I really had to scrape together the money at the time, but it was something I had to do - it was like I didn't have a choice, even if it meant eating ramen noodles for a month.

clifford_thornton Posted November 20, 2014 Report Share Posted November 20, 2014 same here. The Incus Music Improvisation Company is much rawer than the ECM (not surprisingly).

B. Clugston Posted November 20, 2014 Report Share Posted November 20, 2014 Dollar Brand (Abdullah Ibrahim), African Space Program (Enja). Great album with a large ensemble. Sadly my copy is worn--sounds like the previous owner played it a lot on granny's old stereo console with the thrashed needle. Don Ellis At Fillmore (Columbia). I'd give this one 3 3/4 stars, or 1 and 7/8 thumbs up. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Leeway Posted November 21, 2014 Report Share Posted November 21, 2014 Bobby Few - More Or Less Few [Center of The World] first listen. First Few leader date in the collection I have the Few, totally dig it. There are sections on it where he makes Cecil sound like a Chopin recitalist. It's rough and raw, and I love that aspect., as well as the almost DIY facet of the album. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
His Boy Elroy Posted November 21, 2014 Report Share Posted November 21, 2014 Inspired by a couple recent "Persuasions" posts. This is the only one of theirs I own, but it's excellent. 'Hadn't spun it in a while . . . Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
