So, What Are You Listening To NOW?

[Rabshakeh]

Taking a break from an afternoon's increasingly frantic googling of 1950s Western European jazz men to listen to this favourite: 

Andrew Cyrille's X Man (Soul Note, 1944) with James Newton and especially Anthony Cox in very fine form.

I think so? The label, I can't recall...it came out in that year or so. I bought it right away, jammed it really good, and then put it up for the next time. It's a pretty good record!

you can buy it here, it's certainly worth it,... winkelmand is Warenkorb.... but if you just write a nice email in German they'll be able to handle it...

Roscoe Mitchell with Strings.

He's been interested in expanding his music to larger ensembles in the last decade and I have aided him in this effort.

Go Mr Mitchell! In ten days he will be an amazing 81. Thank god he is in a position to do many things.

The cover art kinda bothers me, it's just too damn literal. T

But the music more than makes up for it.

I have to say I'm really impressed by it. I listened to it twice in one go. It has a unique language, which is surprisingly rare when writing for this scale. 

Mr. Mitchell is probably my favourite artist and it's amazing to see how he is continuing to grow at every stage of his career.

Like I said in that "other" thread yesterday.

Having done Eurojazz listening all day (as a background to that other thread), I think I will pull out my copy of that one next.

[Joe]

I dig it when Wayne honks.

Cut-out fodder back in the day, but still a favorite.
