AndrewHill Posted August 11, 2007 Report Share Posted August 11, 2007 As of late, I've really been enjoying Frank Wright's Unity on ESP. Other recent disks in rotation: Globe Unity Orchestra's 20th Anniversary on FMP and Cecil Taylor's The Eighth on Hat Art. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

king ubu Posted August 13, 2007 Report Share Posted August 13, 2007 You'll find only few members here are really into any kind of freer stuff... there used to be this very active thread here, but it's come to almost a halt of late: http://www.organissimo.org/forum/index.php?showtopic=5071 The Wadada album is fine (better, I think, than the yellow one on Tzadik). Two I just picked up are the second of Billy Bang's Vietnam albums (liked the first one quite a bit) and one of AEC's Pi Recordings, [sirius calling]. Haven't played them yet, though... Not sure if Kahil El'Zabar goes under free... I also got that live set of his with Billy Bang (the band's made up of Yoron Israel and Ari Brown), where they do that great groovy homage to Malachi. All together though I found the disc too long to really sustain interest... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Nate Dorward Posted August 15, 2007 Report Share Posted August 15, 2007 That's an OK album, but I'm not sure I'd single it out. Though Hancock's presence is certainly memorably bizarre. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
AndrewHill Posted August 16, 2007 Report Share Posted August 16, 2007 That's an OK album, but I'm not sure I'd single it out. Though Hancock's presence is certainly memorably bizarre. I agree. Much better is their debut album, Koln and their only studio album, Iron Path. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest Bill Barton Posted August 17, 2007 Report Share Posted August 17, 2007 This recent release on Clean Feed is highly recommended: Wally Shoup, Gust Burns, Reuben Radding and Greg Campbell are the players. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yeah, that record kicks ass. Clean Feed is a pretty reliable label, imo - especially the early Portuguese improv releases, if you can find 'em.

You could get all the LPs together for less than $50. The only one of those that I really liked was the Sunny Murray/Roscoe Mitchell split. I think that was Volume 5.

There's a pirate edition, goes for 25 € on amazon.de - it's a digipack, Douglas label (not sure how pirate that is, but I always thought it was a rip-off of the "old" Knit edition, which I have, by the way).
