Got no business going into a record store right now - I've have a backlog of unheard music and have gotten three box sets in the mail in the last week and a half. But I couldn't resist stopping in one of my used record/CD spots today, and I'm glad I did. Someone had brought in a bunch of jazz, mostly post-Coltrane. I walked out with:

AALY Trio + Ken Vandermark - Stumble (Wobbly Rail)

Territory Band -1 - Transatlantic Bridge (Okkadisk)

Sun Ra - Horizon (Art Yard)

Peter Kowald - Duos: Europa/America/Japan (FMP) I'm really excited about this one.

John Cage - Violin Music; Paul Zukofsky, violin (CP2)

and the odd man out:

Stanley Turrentine - Sugar (CTI) Haven't heard this for 20 years. I suspect that I'll like it better now than I did then - I was quite a snob.

I suspect most of us were in our younger days. One of the joys of getting on in years is knowing that you can enjoy music on many levels and ignore the hierarchies (either the ones decided by others or the ones you invent for yourself!).

Yusef Lateef - Lost In Sound

A straight-ahead date where Lateef sticks to tenor and I do so love him on tenor

Pieter Wispelwey and Dean Lazic: Sonatas for Cello and Piano - Shostakovich; Prokofiev; Britten

Margaret Johnson 1923-1927

Cecil Taylor: Artists House Presents the Jazz Master Class Series from NYU - DVD

The above was partially funded by the Herb Alpert Foundation. I wonder what will happen when Quincy Jones lets Herb know what he helped pay for this time.

Huge thumbs up for Change!

I'm not the biggest Hill fan, but the clips sounded interesting. I look forward to listening to it.

So what do you think Paul? Hope you're enjoying this date.

On first listen, I was more drawn to Sam Rivers' and J.C. Moses' playing, but I'll be going back to it. There's more for me to hear there.
