I had an ear infection at the beginning of this year. I believe I mentioned it here on the board. It came just after my Covid infection. The ear infection itself only took 4 days but my ears were 'closed' for almost 2 months. It really drove me insane. I don't think my hearing suffered any damage but I do have tinnitus ever since and that is probably there to stay. It's especially annoying at night. @Rooster_Ties i'd just make a quick stop at the doctor's office. All he has to do is look.

embryo with Mal Waldron and Jimmy Jackson.

Looks like a bootleg? For the sake of being a Mal completist I’ll probably get it. Two of my musical heroes but I feel the chosen compositions are a sign of disappointment to me personally. I would love to hear Rivers playing ‘out’ on Mals dark chordings.

Oh yes Both excellent Milestone records. Top notch Joe.

Now that’s one hell of a Jackie McLean record. Poor Eric is among the most beautiful ballads ever played.

That’s a great line up…. But sometimes they don’t work. Very curious to hear it.

im gonna play my Coltrane vinyl collection in a (kinda) chronological order coming weeks. Coltrane was my first big love and with Mal he still stands out as my big jazz hero

I am surprised there’s a record where Norman Connors plays ‘shitty’. I really enjoy his playing on most records. He’s outstanding with Sam Rivers.

orignal German pressing

Pre order? Are they getting reissued?

Im a big fan of Joe both as leader as a sideman. All of the Blue Notes are great but my favorites would be: - Inner Urge - In n Out on Milestone: - Multiple - Tetragon - Power to the People Later Joe: - Mirror Mirror - So Near So Far - Double Rainbow

That’s a great story Peter. Must have been a wonderful experience. Yeah I think that one really stands out in the already excellent Milestone catalogue. The Craft reissue sounds terrific

Thanks! Jan Swerts is a Belgian neoclassical musician with some pop influences. Beautiful music imo but definitely something different than most jazz music.

Had I already said how much I love Voyage to Jericho and how happy I am with the reissue ? I see it’s up for pre order in Europe as well

Sorry what am I missing here?

That looks interesting: Parker and Moholo

Yes that’s a great live album
