romualdo

and it's even had a CD reissue on Esoteric

He's also very contactable/approachable - I've done so a couple of times I've been picking up all of the Modern Harmonic & Cosmic Myth CDs (& occasional LP) soon after release

an MFP special - has become a kitsch label (at least here in Australia) - I've had a copy of this for years

Scored this in the Haden complete Montreal 6CD box a few years back https://www.discogs.com/release/2412236-Charlie-Haden-The-Montreal-Tapes

First thing that came to mind on seeing the lowermost image was the Pere Ubu track "Young Miles In The Basement"

Thanks Mark - what a blast - that's why I have so much admiration for Hawk

what a pity - it was a site I ventured to frequently

also just ordered (direct) plus the new Philly Joe Jones/Elmo Hope Birdland, Joe Albany unreleased session & Toshiko Akiyoshi's Trios & Quartets 53-58

yep, they've reissued the 3LP Playhouse set (500 more copies) essential HT/PAPA release IMHO

next two PAPA at IUCC doubles ready to go this month (October) - received an email from Nimbus https://www.nimbuswestrecords.com/shop-5/p/pan-afrikan-peoples-arkestra-live-at-iucc-112579-2cd-shipping-oct https://www.nimbuswestrecords.com/shop-5/p/pan-afrikan-peoples-arkestra-live-at-iucc-42780-2cd-shipping-oct

many thanks Mark - what a diverse range of material covering 13 years of Birds live output I've created the ordered playlist on my iTunes & am currently listening, BTW I actually have 19 of the 21 recordings you list

one of my more recent Melle finds was on the Creel Pone/Alpha State label (yes, I know it may not be legit) - it's a double CD covering his three "electronica" releases from 68-71 ie Tome IV (Verve), Waterbirds (Nocturne) & The Andromeda Strain (Kapp) both 10" & 12" versions https://alphastate.nyc/products/gil-melle-the-andromeda-strain?_pos=1&_sid=a21186b41&_ss=r

The Montgomery Riverside box has 12/14 tracks - only missing tracks are 1. alt #1 of S.O.S. 2. Released version of Full House but with the original Wes solo (from that take) reinserted & the other excised will pass on this one

we used to watch it here in Australia in the 60s - I always preferred David to Robert RIP

big shout out for the live Masadas Also Derek Bailey (includes Joseph Holbrooke Trio & Tony Oxley) & of course any Milford Graves

another outstanding graphic novel is the Monk effort by Youssef Daoudi https://www.amazon.com/Monk-Thelonious-Pannonica-Friendship-Revolution/dp/1626724342/ref=sr_1_2?crid=340X52AK132R5&keywords=thelonious+monk&qid=1695684713&s=books&sprefix=thelonious+mon%2Cstripbooks-intl-ship%2C458&sr=1-2 There's an Albert Ayler graphic novel in the works being undertaken by Dean Westerfield - he's also a fan of Tapscott/Arkestra (see link) https://angelcityjazz.com/explorations/westerfield/

been doing that for years The recording of this historic concert is presented in its entirety for the first time in this edition. The remastered original tapes have been used to produce this CD, ensuring excellent sound quality. With little publicity and only one star arrived from America, Miles Davis, Bruno Coquatrix, owner and manager of the Olympia, accomplished an impressive feat by presenting a sold-out concert on Saturday, November 30, 1957, at 6 p.m. André Hodeir in Jazz Hot had written, "This concert by Miles Davis was one of the most beautiful jazz concerts we have ever heard in Paris. Brilliantly supported by Kenny Clarke, René Urtreger, Pierre Michelot, and Barney Wilen, the great trumpeter gave the best of himself in many passages." The producer and owner of this recording was the late jazz promoter Marcel Romano, who brought Miles Davis to Paris. After more than 60 years in storage, Romano’s nephew and heir discovered the tapes and sold them to Fresh Sound Records for a commercial release. The music on this album is a magnificent testament to Miles Davis’ engaging and captivating style, showcasing his unrivaled ability to push his peers beyond their limits and share his boundless creativity and inspiration with them, leaving an indelible mark on our hearts and minds. —Jordi Pujol

wow!! is this the only known footage of the 66 euro tour band? Thanks Pim interesting comment on youTube "At the very end, we can see the future prime minister of France (Jacques Chaban-Delmas")

RIP Charles

Thanks James (got your email too), what a coincidence indeed re Fresh Sound Also sorry bout the Accardi vs Riccardi confusion It's already available via Fresh Sound https://www.freshsoundrecords.com/philly-joe-jones-albums/56771-live-at-birdland-historic-unreleased-1962-recordings.html

had it on my wants list at Dusty Groove since it appeared on the site have previously picked up the two Jef Gilson/Malagasy (Malagasy & At Newport-Paris) SouffleContinu CDs (originally on the Lumen/Palm labels)

wonder if it will come with the CD of previously unreleased material ? (some has been released on Dark Tree since)

sure does - listened to the set twice now - like the musical organisation of each disc, Hank or Trane on discs 1 & 2 (sextet & quintet). The two quintet sessions (Quintets & Cool Struttin' - Dec 57, Feb 58) fit nicely onto disc 4 with trio material on discs 3 & 5. Leapin' & Lopin' comprises disc 6.

had my copy since November 2022 & it sits permanently beside my computer workbench - a tremendous (& heavy!!) production with a lot of love & effort behind it.
