Earlier today, I read Ken Dryden's review of this CD in The New York City Jazz Record, so I'm now giving it a test drive via Spotify. I'm really enjoying it so far.

That ‘Think’ looks as if it is a ‘Collector’s Choice’ release. Good stuff.

McLean's Scene

Those early Prestige sessions of Jackie McLean are quite interesting, though they still sound a bit "rough". I remember when I bought this album I couldn´t believe the man on the coverfoto is Jackie, I wouldn´t have recognized him.

There are still a lot of standards and ballads on those albums. I think one track is called "Outburst" and it´s an ultra fast improvised line of the "Salt Peanuts" changes.

Anthony Braxton - Sextet (Istanbul) 1996 [New Braxton House]

following a startlingly good Zim Music performance at Oto on wednesday. This Ghost Trance Music sounds not very like Zim Music really but it's the nearest I could get

One of my favorite pre-BN records is A Long Tall Drink Of The Blues, especially where the musicians heatedly discuss the rhythm. 4,5,6 is another good one.

Interesting. I'm giving this a listen through headphones on Bandcamp now. I do not have any early Ghost Trance Music, and I see this has Kevin Norton on drums, whom I only know from the CIMP and Leo standards albums.
