The Ehrlich dates are extremely good, as is Rothenberg's "Powerlines," Robert Dick's "Third Stone from the Sun," ROVA's "No Favorites," Varner's "The Window Up Above," and Malaby's "Paloma Recio." Really strong catalog, and that's just jazz stuff.

Cool!

Almost forgot the fine John McLaughlin JMT, the Festival Hall date with Gurtu.

DIW certainly had range. There's a great Marc Ribot solo album, Don't Fool Me (I think that's the title). The debut from What We Live. The early Masada records. As for JMT, I love that Geri Allen too but I think of Tim Berne, Paul Motian, and Herb Robertson above all. Great string of releases from them all.

Bummed to hear about Eno too. Hear you, ejp626. The discrediting of expertise over the last several decades has made much of this foreseeable. Any minor crack in what might otherwise be eternal ontological certitude is interpreted as "Fauci doesn't know everything."

Jesus, that's disappointing.

Big Ears for me too. RIP, sir.

Colossal loss. RIP, sir, and thanks for all the music.

Very sad news. RIP, sir.

I love that duo with Rypdal. RIP.

RIP.

RIP.

Shocked to see this awful news. RIP.

Not an informed scientist, but the several articles I've scanned suggest that as of now there's no evidence that it's more deadly or vaccine resistant.

Belated greets, David!

Co-sign! "Bush Baby" is a number one dance hit in my house.

Very fondly, brother Steve! The show was, I think, 1998 or 1999.

Very sad news. Seeing DLAD live at the Empty Bottle is still one of my favorite live experiences ever, thanks in no small part to TK's cosmic shapes. RIP, sir, and thank you.

I just heard about this last week. Gary was a friend and put my band up on tour, among other kindnesses over the years. RIP to my pal and condolences to Bronwyn.

Wow, what a loss. Thank you for your artistry, sir. RIP.

Wow, so young. RIP, sir, and thanks for the music.

RIP.

Best be ready, friends. It's only June. I guess tax cuts and fear of brown people was worth a police state?

Sorry to hear that awful news, John.

Happy B-Day, Chuck!
