    wtf is tuvan throat singing? ---------- Listening to Charles Gayle's "More Live" (Knit). Pretty exciting stuff! Though I think I like the Coltrane homage with Rashied Ali a little bit better. Found the latest Intakt Evan Parker/Barry Guy 2CD set new for 10CHF yesterday! No chance to listen yet. The booklet has an intersting interview with the two, trying to find words to explain what they're doing musically, and also just refreshing memories of how they came to know each other etc. It's this one: http://www.intaktrec.ch/guyparker-a.htm ubu
  6. Thanks for clearing things! B3-er, hope this problem will be solved as fast as each problem showing up on this board has been solved ubu
  7. You talkin' to me or to Late? If me, you got my email address (I don't want to post it here, as I've been without spam so far) ubu
  8. Mark, I was thinking it over several times, too. But generally, I am slowly and unforcedly working my way back (first from modal/free to bop, and now to swing and earlier things), and I like almost anything I have yet encountered. And if I don't like it now, there might still come a time I will... Anyway, I think I do have some sort of idea of what I will going to hear. ubu Just to make sure I wasn't misunderstood, the recommendation I hesitate to make is to skip disc one. As for buying the set, I don't hesitate at all. It was a very delightful surprise for me! I'm working my way back as well, although as I started at hard bop, I find myself working forward at the same time. I really like what I've heard so far! The quartet George Lewis tracks are sublime! Great music, good liners, nice photos (that one of Paul Barbarin is beautiful, on top of page 5, I think - don't have it at hand right now). ubu
  9. Perhaps Irene Aebi? ubu
  10. Please answer telling me whether you got my PM or not! I wrote you earlier today, but received the mail error message, so I don't know if my PM went through (it's not in the Sent Items folder) ubu (I will delete this thread later)
  11. Thanks, Shrdlu! So I don't need this one. ubu
  12. Ernie Henry? -- Imagine! ubu
  13. Thanks for posting that cool LP cover, Jim! I only have three or four Kenton discs so far, plus the Forties Mosaic. What I'd like to know is: can the recordings of the Holman/Russo Mosaic be bought on single CDs? Some of the 53-54 CDs available do have Holman/Russo charts, however, is there a way of acquiring all that was in that Mosaic set? Could anyone maybe name the respective albums? Or does anyone have a discography of that set he could post here? ubu
  14. Milan, welcome back! And thanks for your comments above! Can't believe you guys walk around with closed ears Still I'm only listening to the Basie things, not to JATP. Will have closer listens to the broadcasts I have now, and report back if I find something interesting down the alley of your free jazz thoughts. ubu
  15. Now you dare starting this thread BEFORE even one of us heady europeans has received the disc?!? Looking forward to it! ubu
  16. How about a bamboo saxophone? Roscoe Mitchell plays such a thing on the "Urban Magic" live CD I'm listening to. Then there would be the one pitched higher than the soprano, which lots of posters sure would like to be banned from our planet ubu
  17. Might be good to have this one in RVG treatment anyway! Glad I did not stand between you and your luck... ubu
  18. Sorry for my help in spreading the AMG schitte! I was at work and remembered my old US CD had a bonus cut, and when I saw that # on AMG I thought that was it. My CD has 1992 US CD has 8 tracks, "They Can't Take That Away From Me" was then previously unissued. Again sorry for the confusion, memory was right, but AMG not ubu
  19. You're waiting for the Mitchell? Be patient and wait - the music will reward you! ubu
  20. Jim, I think the Stan T. has one or two tracks not on LP (I got an old CD of that one). Checked AMG, one it seems: http://www.allmusic.com/cg/amg.dll?p=amg&u...l=A5pg9kebtjq7m ubu
  21. I see them in stores in jewel cases, too. ubu
  22. You know, me too knows how to go for the post count, you rockofellatios ubu
  23. Let me make some ballyoo...
  24. For those who followed the discussion of early Bird stuff, and Jay McShann material featuring Bird: the GRP disc is OOP (and I wanted to order it used, but there was some problem, and now it's not available on that site anymore), but there is a Proper 2CD release which includes all (but one, if my short comparison with AMG was right) of the cuts of the GRP disc, as well as several more slightly later dates. Here is the discography of that set: This looks like a very interesting set! Here's the link to the Proper website. ubu
