Thanks a lot, etherbored, but I have that much new stuff around, I can absolutely wait for some time and get me the new release, eventually.

This definitely looks interesting! I haven't heard lots of Van Damme, so I'm tempted... but it's rather pricey, at 10 euro per disc - anyone saw it for a good prize somewhere?

again last night, a wonderful record!

here's the discographical date for the live material I am aware of - some of it is studio dates (mostly at the beginning of this listing), which may or may not have seen (partial) release on any of the CDs I don't have... This is in no way, I assume, a complete listing, nor is it free of mistakes, I assume... At the end, the sextet/small group sessions I'm aware of are listed, too.

thank you! I never really took a closer look at this series, thinking they were all compilations! Yes indeed, neither did I, thanks!

All the best, Daniel! Happy Birthday!

Mr. uhm, mommy..., I assume I have those same live recordings, too... as far as I see on that Brown site, the Timeless is vinyl only. I don't think it's rare - the store where I bought mine, half a year or so ago, had another copy of it and it was prized in the 10-12$ range, which is *cheap* here (nice prize CDs go for roughly 17-19$, glass of beer or a coffe for 2.5-4$).

I played this one again a few days ago: alternate back cover: Marion Brown: La Placita - Live In Willisau Timeless SJP 108 (NL) Timeless Muse TI 314 (US) Timeless/RVC RJL-8080 (J) [released 1984] March 26, 1977 Willisau, Switzerland (live) La Placita [9:20] (Marion Brown) Fortunato [8:12] (Marion Brown) Sonnymoon For Two [5:14] (Sonny Rollins) Bosco [10:20] (Marion Brown) I'm Sorry [7:00] (Brandon K. Ross) Soft Winds [5:44] (Benny Goodman) Marion Brown (as) Brandon K. Ross (g) Jack Gregg (b) Steve McCraven (d) Very nice album! Funny, my front is red, just like the back of the above jpg, but on the Brown site, there's just the yellow and the pink front... [edit: maybe the yellow pic from above was red but got a bit too much sun?] I like the "mellow, warmly lyrical, sparse" description a lot. Brown is a great musician, very underrated, I assume, although that's an annoying tag.

I forgot: as the studio stuff is so scattered around on many labels, and some of it has gone OOP fast, too, I'd welcome a studio box, too, but a collection of some of these half-hour broadcasts done for WDR, that would be the greatest! And please with one or two bonus DVDs including some footage, too!

I am a *big* fan of the CBBB. I got the recent re-broadcast on arte of that Francy Boland homage, including lots of music from different concerts as well as an interview with Gigi Campi in between, and portraits with footage of some of the more important band member (Klook, Clare, Griffin, Ake Persson, Benny Bailey...). Very, very nice. And I have also been able to get a bunch of live recordings/broadcasts, and as much as I like the studio releases I was able to find (both Two Originals, the one with Getz, Smiles, More Smiles), these live sessions are absolutely superior. The band was a true band, very stable personnel, and not much about ego - in fact there are tracks with no solos or just short glimpses of solos, and everyone is fully present, everyone gets a chance on those tunes - granted, there were main soloists, mostly in the brass sections, almost no trombone solos that were not taken by Persson, and trumpet duties mainly taken care of by Bailey but depending on who else was in, you'll also hear fine Idrees Sulieman, Art Farmer or Dusko Goykovich solos. Anyway, what struck me most, watching the Francy tribute DVD, was how together the band was, how they had their unique sound - and no matter if you like Clare or not, the twin drums were able to generate tons of heat, not just on their feature tunes like "Kenny & Kenny", they just turned in an irresistible forward-moving swing.

Happy birthday!

Seems the future of avantgarde lies in americana... sorry to interrupt for a second: Gallio is not what you'd consider young, but is that a decisive factor? I don't think so, if someone still does his thing and does it with conviction and not apeing anything etc., it's still good, and can be just as "avant" as what younger musicians do. I know that if the future of the music is in question, age is in the end a factor, but that does not lead me to believe that anyone older than, say 40, is not avantgarde any longer, regardless of what s/he does. I mean, Jack Wright is pretty old, no? Still a good case in point that the music is not dead at all. Also I assume Daunik Lazro ain't no youngster any longer, but hey...

I think that's the point - and the one reason for optimism, too, despite I can relate to what Jim said... but if you think a bit harder, this is it. There's a bunch of dedicated musicians doing *good* stuff everywhere, but it's not those, in most cases, that are able to "make it" and build and international reputation (or even national - think of the great Bay Area scene, who knows them in NYC? Who cares? Not many, but even I in Zurich did find out, eventually...). That's maybe what the point as far as "plenty" and "working harder to find them" is about. I don't think anyone here has heard of Christoph Gallio, Christian Weber, Christian Wolfahrt, the recently deceased Fredi Luescher, Co Streiff, Tommi Meier, Marco Kaeppeli... just a few of the good local musicians doing their things, regardless of their fame, and probably all struggling quite hard to be able to do it, but that won't turn them into young hardbop clones (like the young chaps from the jazz schools... maybe throw in some samples and beatz, too... uh, how boring). And as far as the "diminishing returns" are concerned: wasn't that always like this? There's plenty of good stuff, but you always have to sit through a couple of boring spots or sets at any festival. The freer the music gets, one might argue, the higher the risk of boredom... believe me, I've been to concerts where four crazy chaps have been working hard for an hour, and just not one damn thing happened.... that must be like it is in hell, I assume... but on the other hand, some mainstreamos playing standards and oh-so-hip originals and relying on the usual hardbop clichées, that can be just as much hell to get through, or even worse, because they don't even take any chances at all. 'nuff said ub PS: funny to see some others find W Parker boring... long time been there, never really clicked, except maybe on that Codanza 10CD Feel Trio box...

Happy birthday!

Just started reading, and yes, again from Wewerka - here's hope then for another bunch of Wewerka discs with all the material! (The first Forum West was a selection of highlights from the collection of discs Claude linked above.)

I put that Pauer solo show up on the other site, in case you may have missed it. It's not that bad as I stated above - I guess back then I just had too high expectations... Does the second volume of Forum West also contain Wewerka stuff, or is it compiled from other source materials, and if so, what? Anyone knows?

I am using it with a notebook, but I don't think that has anything to do with it. No upgrades of drivers available or anything that might fix my problem. At least it didn't cost that much (some 45 euro, still, argh).

I have the effing soundblaster thingie, too, but it always creates hiccups when recording, no matter if I use the awkward Creative Smart software or GoldWave or CoolEditPro. No idea what the problem could be.

I'll take the Dodo if it's still available, will PM in a minute!

so Byron has exchanged his shrieky clarinet with chirpy organ?

IMHO, it was a lame attempt to get bucks for decent musicians. No reason to pay for it. Really? Have you played it again in recent years? I think it's quite good.

Played some vinyl again today, for a change... first Joe Malinga's album with Clifford Thornton - great! This one really grows on me! Then Marion Brown's Willisau album (on Timeless) and then the great opening tune of Griffin's "The Congregation" (Connoisseur Vinyl)

It seems to be very good! I was lucky to get it used from a board (bored?) member some time ago, but I feel like I need to play it a few more times though to really find out about it. No idea about Tony, but I sure hope all's well! I'll drop him a mail!

These Golden Afrique sets are up for 20€ on zweitausendeins! Just ordered them... since I also have a 10€ thingie there, I will get them without shipping costs! I see in a few days a third volume will be released, too! 23€ from amazon.fr (edited to put in the org/amazon.fr link, in case someone buys it...)

But wasn't that second album on the GRP one of those Keepnews hackjobs omitting a couple of tunes even though there would have been ample space? That makes me think - via the other OK hackjob that was compiled from the two Art Farmer Quartet albums (omitting one cut of each) - of my favourite Jazztet album, "Jazztet and John Lewis" - has this been out on CD? If not, feghing release it, it's a hell of a great album! Lewis doesn't play, but it's his tunes and his arrangements, and it's absolutely clear that it's his! I see it's downloadable now... that's bad news, I assume as far as a CD reissue goes... and at the same time it means it was most likely out on CD in Japan (or is this one where they did remaster something just to put it up for downloading? I doubt they do that at all...)
