Pim

Thanks I understand now He was such a gifted person but such a sad person. My father in law was at the police force of Bureau Warmoesstraat in Amsterdam in the ‘80’s. He doesn’t know Chet as a musician but as a junky only. He told me Chet was a sweet guy but always in trouble because of the drugs.

He was a great bass player. R.I.P.

I feel like such a fool now. Payed more than 250 dollars and ending up with zero cd's from the series. This sucks big time

Yeah I know about his lifestyle. That was pretty well documented. It was more that you sounded like you'd glorify that kind of lifestyle, like he had a great life.

Interesting stuff, some solo bass, overdubbed bass, electronics and a duet with Joachim Kuhn, one with Christof Lauer.

oh my… Billy Bang with Henry Threadgill, Ted Daniel, James Spaulding, John Hicks, Curtis Lundy and Michael Carvin. Such a beautiful record. Doi Moi 😍

Closing this year with some classics here….

I’ve noticed @david weiss presence here the last days so I take my chances again. David I own all the Cookers records but this one stands out as the very best. What a great record. I missed you guys in Rotterdam as Covid kicked in and that really sucked. The concert got cancelled. I hope you guys consider another European tour. I’d drive to Belgium or the Ruhr area of Germany to see you guys play. All the best for the coming year!

Cool stuff Felser

What do you mean with 'lived the life'?

Some more blue notes for today 💪

Prima Materia = Rashied Ali, Louie Belogenis, Allan Chase, Joe Gallant and William Parker. John Zorn is on two tracks on alto sax.

Yeah me too.

Great as ever

Funky stuff the Blue labels are a nice little detail

Thanks. Definitely give it a try apparently a nice reissue available

I only know Moketsi trough Abdullah Ibrahim but should check out more of him

For some reason this Wayne Shorter session has been off my radar for a very long time. It’s very, very good. Classic Shorter I’d say.

It’s awful indeed. Now the elder is getting better, the youngest situation gets worse
