Sam Rivers & Mario Schiano - Rendez-Vous

Ahem, sorry Dan - seems I mis-read: the way I understand it, there'd be tags underneath each thread (not for each post). Everyone (not just a thread originator) can add tags.

I'd say yes, Dan! If you want the main threads, do a title search (or do a search via google, putting in "[search text] site:organissimo.org"). If you want to find "hidden" discussions (such as the Pete Brown one I mentioned - I once had to look for it and it drove me crazy... thought I'd remembered in what thread it was, but it took me a while...), you can go via tags. Of course the funny guys amongst us (me included) might add funny one-liners instead of artist names, albums, sensible keywords etc... but I'd still think it would be most useful!

Wouldn't there be a possibility for another Mosaic Select, collecting all the Impulse trio material? Seems only Yale has appeared completely (on the "Trio Live" CD which I'm spinning right now).

Tags would allow to "index" (in a way) off-topic things, too... and they could be added by any registered user (though if that's so, there might be some clean-up work necessary... on the other hand if only moderators could put in tags, that would be of little use, as it would mean much work or not make a big difference). But again, that's only an option if Jim can just check the "use tags" feature somewhere!

Happy New Year to y'all! Hope 2012 may bring joy and happiness... and excitement and exhaustion and passion and pain and sadness and whatever belongs to any good year.

How about tags? If they can be activated easily (which I don't know of course) that might be good. For instance to find the most interesting Pete Brown discussion hidden in the... what thread was it again? The Hemphill "Dogon A.D." one?

*very much* worth getting! :tup

now playing: Sam Rivers - Contrasts Lined up next are these two: "Paragon" is one of my very favorite Rivers albums! @vinyltim: sorry, didn't note your reply regarding my deepgroove question within due time! Thanks!

Yesterday played the entire new Select in one session - it's amazing! So glad they did this!

Still want that (and the Lunceford and the Threadgill and the MJQ and the and the and the... well, that's life, I guess!) Amazed again by how great the first two BN sessions of Rivers' are! Hubbard is wonderful... always the same with him, wonderful sideman, too much showing off when a leader... Hancock/Carter/Chambers are amazing, too!

Made my way all through the new Rivers select but posted about it in the wrong thread (done it again...) - blazing, intense, dense and faszinating stuff! Now into disc 2 of the good ol' Rivers set:

Dolly Rathebe enjoyed a train ride, too:

Thanks a lot for sharing this, Agustín! Intriguing... must have over-read this in the "Coltrane Reference" book! Feliz Año Nuevo!

Definitely worth checking out again. For me it's one of the great Miles albums particularly for its difference. same thoughts here. i have a high oppinion of ascenseur pour l'echefaud. But Wilen can hardly be heard there... get "Barney" and "More from Barney" if you can, also the Jazz in Paris reissue of "Jazz sur Seine"! And then get hooked and get many more! Can't really answer the question here, btw... loads of varied listening. Lengthy stretches dedicated to Miles Davis (1968-75), Sonny Stitt, Ella Fitzgerald, Sonny Rollins, Art Blakey, Horace Silver among others recently, but all too often I just reach for what's within reach and on one of the "recently bouth" or "unheard yet" piles.

Sure! You do deserve it, after all! :tup

Had no idea Lucky Luciano was a jazz guitarist

Sam Rivers & The Rivbea Orchestra - Trilogy (Mosaic Select 38) - disc 1 is there anything in there that is not on: - the complete Bluebird 2CD set - the Savoy "Odyssey" set - the various Verve CDs (2CD set 1956/57, Newport 1957)? has anyone taken the time to compare?

or t-shirts with LeeWay prints

well, you do need some tape to hold all these cans and bags and boxes together... but why the worm?

That's cool Allen! But bear with us non-promo-non-media-non-paid folks who struggle to keep up and collect old stuff, too (okay the last part may be an issue, but hey, you help flooding us with great old stuff, too, so don't complain too loudly!) Anyway, I'm not posting a best of 2011 list since I've hardly yet bought 10 new releases from this year... but in a few years, I might have enough of them to post a list - yet then no one will care any longer. Same thing each year... maybe I'm too patient, maybe I mis-allocate my budget, maybe whatever... but I'm no teenage fan waiting for the latest Olivia John single or Julie London cheesecake album cover. Not entirely sure why, but I keep lagging behind all the time... My favorite new releases of the year are: Matana Roberts - Coin Coin Chapter One: Gens de Couleur Libres (Constellation) John Zorn - Nova Express (Tzadik) Marilyn Crispell / Gerry Hemingway - Affinities (Intakt) all of which would get * * * * 1/2 from me. then there are pair of * * * * albums: Colin Vallon - Rruga (ECM) Arthur Doyle Electro-Acoustic Ensemble – Live In Nashville & Louisville (Sagittarius A-Star) and a much longer reissue list: * * * * * Julius Hemphill - Dogon A.D. (International Phonograph) Bill Dixon - Intents and Purposes (International Phonograph) [Cover sagt: 2010] Miles Davis - Bitches Brew Live (Sony/Legacy) Sidney Bechet - The Complete American Masters 1931-1953 (Universal) * * * * 1/2 Black Artists Group - In Paris Ariès (Rank and File) Charles Tolliver Big Band - Mosaic Select 37 (Mosaic) Art Pepper - Blues for the Fisherman (Widow's Taste) Stan Getz Quintets - The Clef & Norgran Studio Albums (Hip-O-Select) First Impulse: The Creed Taylor Collection 50th Anniversary (Hip-O-Select) * * * * Wes Montgomery - Movin': The Complete Verve Recordings (Hip-O-Select) Miles Davis - Tutu (Deluxe Edition) (Warner) Nathan Davis - Rules of Freedom (Universal) Eddy Louiss - Orgue (Universal) Swiss All-Stars (Sonorama) Various: Jazz at the Hollywood Bowl (Hip-O-Select) In the "from the archives" secion (where partly the Tolliver, Pepper, Miles BB Live and Jazz from Hollywood Bowl could also be listed), I have these: * * * * * Miles Davis Quintet Live in Europe 1967 (Bootleg Series Vol. 1) * * * * 1/2 G.F. Fitz-Gerald & Lol Coxhill - The Poppy-Seed Affair (Reel Recordings) Tubby Hayes - Tubby's New Groove (Candid) Tubby Hayes - Dancing in the Dark (The Tubby Hayes Archives Vol. 2) (Savage Solveig) * * * * Ella Fitzgerald - Ella Fitzgerald in Japan (Hip-O-Select) John Surman - Flashpoint: NDR Jazz Workshop April '69 (Cuneiform) And still, there's plenty of new stuff missing, including the Sam Rivers Select, which I've received a few weeks ago but haven't heard a second of yet. Also I've not caught up yet with Chuck's latest (I'm sure the new Roscoe would be on or near the top of the final list). Also haven't gotten several recent Mosaics, or else the Lunceford would be way on top somewhere, too... there's just so much you can handle, ain't there? (EDITED because I messed up and repeated the reissues list instead of including the archives list)

It's quite amazing to me how many of you keep to have seen David Bowie last night... (last time I could've said that was after I'd seen that weird Oshima film with him).

Can't you edit the flutist (and add your own or Kenny G's solos) and release them?

That's the one I've got (LP version), and here's the cover: Looking for it, I just found another cover... listed on Paris Jazz Corner with the following info: But then the question that just arose: Jeff - or anyone else - any clue as to who the guitar player is, then, if it's not Danny Barker?
