Maybe a duet album with Andre 3000 next?

Definitely!

Lauren Henderson - Conjuring [Brontosaurus Records]

This again, love it!

This whole episode (not this thread) is just making me smile. So much hot air from the self-appointed defenders of the faith. Andre 3000's press people must be loving it.

Definitely agree. It's a fine band New to me too but it sounds very good on initial acquaintance, thank you for posting it. I buy downloads, I know you don't, so will be buying this one for $7

Yes, they're all strong, some great players with him too, although I wasn't so taken by the Jackson tribute

Hard-nosed improv performance wrecker, that one?

Off to search for that recent quote of yours about being ruthless and unsentimental when it comes to clear outs...going soft? I nearly bought that album this week

It's the sitting on the fence that's so annoying

My copy comes with scratch on the title track for added vintage authenticity... It's a fine album

Booker T & The MGs - Green Onions [London Records, UK 1964 RE]

Two good players

New recordings now up for order https://pmpmusic5.bandcamp.com/album/anthony-braxton-trillium-x Trillium X which has its own short thread already, here https://www.organissimo.org/forum/topic/92713-anthony-braxton-trillium-x/#comment-1906053 And, the first Thunder Music recording https://www.schott-music.com/de/anthony-braxton-50-years-of-creative-music-no783376.html I've ordered the latter and I'm seriously thinking of taking a leap into his opera work with Trillium X

Shame that's subscriber only, I would have gone for it as a one-off purchase

Pat Metheny Group - Travels An album now loaded with meaning for me. Really? I am surprised at that Just the title alone makes me want to investigate this, so off I go to do so

Whispy...?

Your previous post of this prompted me to have it as a soundtrack to a very stressful all night journey. It was just what I needed, thank you

There was a very good overview of Butcher's recordings in the Wire recently, written by Seymour Wright. It highlighted how little I'd really heard, this being a case in point. I saw him in a trio over Easter and his playing was superb, so controlled and without embellishment. Can you have saxophone haiku?

Yes Japanese Jazz gets talked about a fair bit on the forum I'd say. There's at least one dedicated thread. https://www.organissimo.org/forum/topic/76926-japanese-jazz/#comment-1412116 Also the "listening to" threads often feature Japanese musicians as leaders and in bands. Gets played a fair deal in this house too

One of my favourite BNs, Moncur is such a great writer and player. I have an original but like it so much I may be tempted by the TP. Also, a great cover

Is that the Tone Port? How is it?

Me neither, always wanted to

The Makathini is a good call and I'd hazard a guess that @felserwouldn't find the chanting offputting It was your championing of them the hooked me in, thank you. I'm hoping Wilkins in particular plays London soon

Sure is! Sample it here https://ayler-records.bandcamp.com/album/the-box-set-highlights-digital-edition
