papsrus Posted January 12, 2010 Report Posted January 12, 2010 Roy Campbell -- "Communion" (silkheart) Jemeel Moondoc -- "Revolt of the Negro Lawn Jockeys" (eremite) I have mixed feelings about Moondoc, but that's one of the great album titles of all time. I ran across him on a Steve Swell disc -- "Swimming in a Galaxy of Goodwill and Sorrow" (RogueArt) -- that I snagged after Chuck made some warm comments about it a while back. Intrigued, I began to sniff around for some titles where he was leader. This one seems to be fairly well regarded. Quote
Chuck Nessa Posted January 12, 2010 Report Posted January 12, 2010 The Moondoc is a good catch. I've been looking for it and it's out of print. I could get a new one on Amazon for $209.36 or a used one for $39.99. Quote

I could get a new one on Amazon for $209.36 or a used one for $39.99. Yeah, I bit the bullet and ordered a used copy, described as "like new," punch hole in bar code I think. I'm reassured that this seems to be the one to get with Moondoc though. ... I don't think it would be possible for me to enjoy a single disc of music that costs over $200. A few years ago I went nuts and paid something like $120 for a used copy of Braxton's Dortmund and I can't remember the last time I actually listened to it. Quote

mikelz777 Posted January 15, 2010 Report Posted January 15, 2010 (edited) Cowboy Bebop Original Anime Soundtrack Box Set featuring Yoko Kanno / Seatbelts. Fans of the show hardly need to be sold on the music for this series. I first saw Cowboy Bebop years ago and immediately the soundtrack caught my ear from the show's opening theme, "Tank". Check it out here-> Cowboy Bebop opening theme, "Tank" There's a lot of interesting and excellent music on these 4 discs and it's well worth acquiring. "The Real Folk Blues", Cowboy Bebop's closing theme. Real Folk Blues Edited January 15, 2010 by mikelz777 Quote

A Lark Ascending Posted January 23, 2010 Report Posted January 23, 2010 On a Brubeck kick. In Europe: Live In Copenhagen, March 5, 1958 Time Out Time Further Out The Great Concerts Jazz Impressions of Japan You might find this record of interpretations of Brubeck interesting, Bruce: Brubeck himself commented ""This CD will be an inspiration and a challenge for me to carry on in the avenues that you have opened. I've never gone so far into the unknown as you three but I have opened the door and peeked in. Your CD is an invitation to enter."Dave Brubeck. http://www.liamnoble.co.uk/brubeck.htm It's a striking record! Available on e-music in the UK; not sure about the States. Quote
