in addition to, while we're waiting: Smetana Quartet ** young Emerson ** Julliard Quartet https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ypBEX8jdllI ** Alban Berg Quartet ** Terry Allen "Truckload of Art"

hmmm... are we supposed to be so excited this exists to not mention a seeming excess of marginal euro (collector / crap) entries? and no Paul "Hucklebuck" Williams, no Illinois Jacquet, no Willis "Gator Tail" Jackson, Sam Rivers only as a Jeanne Lee sideman, no John Carter (check that I do see John with Tapscott) no Henry Threadgill, no Leroy Jenkins (or Revolutionary Ensemble: ironic because there's no greater "Revolutionary" in contemporary music or literature than Thurston Moore), no Billy Bang though it could be argued Billy's key dates fall on other side of 1980. maybe Rivers, Carter, Threadgill, Jenkins et al are too much composers to be "free"? credit whoever picked Kenton - Graettinger, however, that's shocking to see, almost as much as if someone picked Bix "In A Mist." and yeah yeah, everyone has their own list but when it's a bunch of old white guys who weren't there speaking of / for an American born culture i aver there's a greater responsibility to not play preening collector sword fight. Love Jeanne Lee but she gets TWO entries and Betty Carter none? Again, one could argue her freest performances were later but she was always "out there." ** oooh, "free improv", oooh Borbetomagus! **

+ the essential Overture to the Flying Dutchman as Sight-read by a Bad Spa Orchestra at 7 in the Morning by the Well ** Clarinet Quintet has fewer yuks but still great

Julliard / Wergo erred by not including this --> Flying Dutchman Overture as Played by Bad Spa Orchestra at 7 AM by the Well (1925) which the score readers among us will especially enjoy

Plow That Broke The Plains (the film & the score) ** modern recording ** Mother of us All opera ** writer / critic (cranky but not a crank) https://www.loa.org/news-and-views/671-virgil-thomson-the-music-critic-who-managed-to-demystify-an-art-that-was-often-regarded-as-otherworldly/

Sly (& Jerry Garcia) with New Riders of the Purple Sage in 1975, gospel song written by Don Nix

cyclomates, juicy steaks, sweet things too ** back in time, just rhythm and rhyme, Gregorian chants were a real big thing

Mayall, Blue, Red Holloway, Victor Gaskin, Freddy Robinson, Keef Hartley in Australia '73 https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=MkHOavAEDrM&ab_channel=myrageHQ ** https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=0IeyTowzRCk&ab_channel=myrageHQ ** same band audio only

this whole episode-- though one pick numerous others-- shows Sanborn's great range and empathy. Hard to criticize his solo career choices when he did so much for others also; getting paid for it, granted, but not just... Interesting to note / compare Hiram Bullock with Sanborn (tv, live, record) with Bullock's work with Carla Bley too. (this also instructive for those (mostly white) people who (still) patronize Stevie Ray Vaughan, watch him kill it himself not just with Night Music band but as sideman on closing "Sailin' Shoes" ** also with Wayne Shorter, Carlos Santana ** also with some trumpet player excelling with mute and mullet both

Folk Blues (Pop) Cuscuna x Chris Smith x Randy Newman; Richard Davis electric bass ** x Dylan, Bonnie Raitt & Maria Muldauer somewhere back there Hunter / Garcia

well, if jive ass pasticheur and blowhard Ethan Iverson has done little of merit, at least he "inspired" this thread... fight the power, Ethan! get that J-- i mean George, and it's near certain the ghosts of William Grant Still and Coleridge T. Perkinson-- maybe even Louis Gottschalk and Scott Joplin-- will sneak back in from eternity and acclaim you a true "Soul Brother." ** ** ** **

Tai-Chi & lyricon! ** Nat Cole in "Indochina"

DISCO MONK - Larry Coryell, Jerome Harris, Al Foster, Bill Summers, Mark Soskin go in too. We used to roller skate to this! Sonny solo starts 3:36, goes to about 6:15, then it's time again to boogie!
