Listen to his quartets at the VV. Dude is great and swings his ass off.

Best things I've heard are a pair of new Barry Guy releases and the John Surman on Cuneiform.

I'd also say be open to improvising your schedule. Some of our best experiences over 6-7 times have been, "hey, listen to that - wanna check it out?"

RIP.

Agreed with Adam re. S3E8. It's possibly my favorite thing Lynch did. And the finale of season 2 is a masterwork, with Lynch heavily involved.

RIP.

Wishing you peace, Dan.

Damn. RIP, sir.

RIP to one of the very greatest.

Very grateful to hear our Floridians are okay.

Got 2 Monk shirts, the ROVA that BFrank posted, Air, Threadgill "Be Ever Out," Mahavishnu, and I think that's it.

Threadgill has a couple dynamite large ensemble records over the last 20. Also, don't think Darcy James Argue has made the lists yet. Great stuff.

Read 25, with a few more on the shelf.

I always thought the Chameleons were really underrated.

Mongo only pawn in game of life . . .

RIP. A great artist.

Saw him only once, sitting next to Steve. Absolute legend, thank you sir and rest easy.

I imagine he'll at least be on stage conducting, no?

Terrible news. RIP.

Losing pets is so awful. Sorry for your loss.

Such a huge loss, but what a legacy.

4 sets from Threadgill, including Very Very Circus for the first time in 3 decades!

RIP, sir.

Currently wearing a Monk at the Blackhawk shirt, courtesy of (as RT sez) DJTees. Got a Mahavishnu one from Etsy too.

So envious of everyone who got to see Trane live. For me, a really formative gig was Sonny Sharrock with Pharaoh Sanders in 1993. Also Die Like a Dog at the Empty Bottle in 1999, truly roof-raising. Lacy solo, Parker/Guy/Lytton, Taylor/Oxley. Been lucky to see a ton of good shows.
