[chewy-chew-chew-bean-benitez]

some dipshit keeps outbidding me and it ends in an hour-- looks like im not gonna score this now--- what is this record like anyways? is it crazy free jazz or is it something different? it was at 3.99 all week and now im driving it up to like 20 big ones

Joe Milazzo gave me a copy of this album after a trip down to Dallas years ago. I will listen to it today...

I see a buy it now copy on ebay for $12.95 + shipping.

IMHO, every note Tapscott ever recorded, worth buying.

yeah, if I remember, this album has a Ra feel to it.

I'd start with 'Flight 19'. 'Live at I.U.C.C.' is OK but rather unfocused - it has the feel of a rehearsal session.

I've not heard 'The Call' but unless you are in a hurry I would wait for the CD re-issue. It may have additional tracks.

chewy, you will (I hope) enjoy Flight 17. It's a fantastic record. Has a very interesting, almost minimalist groove to it.
