That one has rewarded repeated listens.  Took quite a few before I filed it.

Kenny Clarke Francy Boland big Band Complete live recordings at Ronnie Scott’s. Volcano and Rue Chaptal. Great CD, the band is on top form.

I hope I am mishearing but someone utters something way beyond the pale before track 1.

Great stuff! I almost think I willed this CD into existence. Way outa print by the time I hipped to it, but I found it  years later in a box at a used record store much later. It was meant for me!

Arrived today: 

Nice! Already to start it again.

Very much like the Keith Jarrett/Gary Peacock/Jack DeJohnette trio music.

It's been my most listened to album of 2025.  I play the Tone Poet a lot and often listen to the album on my nightly walk.  Definitely a masterpiece.

Agree. Wayne's records pre-67 with BN, were amazing enough (including ETC); Schizophrenia onwards was another realm he tapped into. Evan more brilliant stuff.

That Khan Jamal should not be overlooked, great stuff. Anything by that dude to me is worth listening to.

Legit. Jazz in Britain bandcamp you can audition the whole thing. https://jazzinbritain1.bandcamp.com/album/the-complete-spontaneous-event-live-1967-1969

"Coming Soon" to Dusty Groove for another physical CD (twofer) option...might be cheaper w. shipping.

Why I don't need to rely on Trane to love Pharaoh just as much: Blessed Souls, love them both equally.

hey yeah, you are my man ! 

Same tastes. I have that album and some others by Pharoah Sanders whom I saw live many times. 

Trane ! I love especially the stuff he made in the last 5 years of his live.

now listening:

Some read them stupid reviews of "New Grass" but I can say you, when I was just in my early teens (about 1973,74), this was, what the more mature guys, all of us longhaired and freaks listened to.  Mr. Ayler sounds so phantastic, he is incredible !

Coltrane live at Birdland I got many years after I had fell in love with the song "Your Lady" done by another idol of mine: Dave Liebman.

That tune written by Trane. I love the playing of Trane and Elvin Jones here.
