Yeah me too. I was waiting for that Ayler brothers spiritual outburst but it’s mainly the composition theme that’s being being played here. Nevertheless very interesting footage. The guy still has that almost mythical status to me

Anyone seen this before?

Well said. His style is so different but the quality so consistently high it’s hard to talk about favorites. 1965 was a hell of a year: Ascenscion, Transition, Sun Ship, the Half Note stuff, Meditations etc etc

One of those guys who knew how to play inside and could play just as well outside. He’s on so many great dates. RIP

I don’t any of the Palm records had been issued on cd before these series started with it

With Trane, I really like everything he has done. If I’d really had to make a choice I’d choose the Impulse! stuff all of it from Africa/Brass to Interstellar Space. Coltrane developed in so many ways so rapidly that you could divide his work into more eras. The Miles era, the Monk era, the Prestige sessions, the Atlantic stuff, the Vanguard/Africa/Brass stuff, from Crescent to Transition, Meditations via Ascension to Sun Ship, the Sextet live and his last recordings. Something like that. I really love every one of them but I like the more adventurous stuff most.

RIP glad I’ve seen him at the Bimhuis with William Parker and Rashied Ali. That was a great gig and unforgettable experience

I think the Third Man releases are all from a digital source. I’ve got Black Unity and Ptah the el Daoud. The Ptah sounds okay, the Black Unity not so much.

Greats stuff. Already pre ordered at a local store

https://www.dustygroove.com/item/157573/John-Carter-Bobby-Bradford:Self-Determination-Music?cat=jazz&incl_cs=1&no_incl_in=1&sort_order=release_date vinyl reissue upcoming. Essential music

this double LP contains some of the best Coltrane I know. Songs like Living Space (that Tyner solo 😮) and Feelin Good. You could hardly believe it wasn’t released immediately. Of course all of it was later added as bonus tracks on the Impulse! CD’s and Living Space was a release on itself. Those were among my first jazz cd’s and I still cherish this music.

Be safe all of you there! Will be following it on the news here.

Great news. Please do let us know how you like them! I let them collect all the volumes and ship them all at once saving costs. I am hoping these will finish before Christmas. This would be a great Christmas gift to myself ☺️

More reason to give it another try 👍

Mal Waldron - From Dark Into the Light One of his best latest records. Romanian tenor sax player Nicolas Simion is an excellent replacement for Jim Pepper. He has that same powerful tone. Time for a Waldron Tutu Mosaic box?

Maybe I should give it another spin. After all we tend to like the same things mostly

More showers here tomorrow but I’ll blow them directly back to Britain!

Haha I haven’t. I just make sure the LP labels are at the lower edge and the cover at the upper edge awful weather here today so a good opportunity to spin some music

That's a great record.How did your kids like it? (The record and the trip)
