  1. Although I could never afford, or ever be willing to pay the price for the first three rows, it is not as insane when thinking of it as a fundraiser, which is the primary purpose. I imagine it would not be as shocking when compared with other non-profit fundraiser events.
  2. Despite the heat, it was good to see you last night Cliff!
  3. I know a writer that has started doing research in order to write a Andrew Hill biography.
  4. This past Saturday I caught this: Eternal Spirit: Vijay Iyer & Friends Celebrate The Music of Andrew Hill Harlem Stage Gatehouse New York, NY Vijay Iyer - piano, music director Nicole Mitchell - flute, alto flute Mark Shim - tenor saxophone Milena Casado - trumpet, flugelhorn Yuhan Su - vibraphone Devon Gates - bass Reginald Workman - bass Nasheet Waits - drums
  5. Since hearing a group led by Vijay Iyer playing Andrew Hill's music this past weekend, I have been in the mood to listen to Hill's music in my daily listening. Monday I started with the Black Fire sessions, then decided that I wanted to focus on the post Blue Note seventies recordings. Yesterday I listened to this one: This is the selection for today:

  8. It's a classic.
  9. I will be very interested in reading your impressions on those recordings. I have many of them in my collection. I might just listen to each as you share your work.
  10. I have been reading the book in small chunks for the past week or so. I got through all the interviews and I am not reading the pieces on the specific recordings. I am really enjoying the additional insight the book gives on Shipp generally, and specifically the RogueArt recordings. I have a few of the recordings in my collection and have already started pulling some of them out for listening.
  11. I have the ensembles prior release and have also heard some radio broadcasts from concerts. I have enjoyed what I heard in the past and based on that I will likely pick this up at some point.
  12. I watched all three episodes Friday night and enjoyed. It did not necessarily reveal much that I did not already know, but I appreciate how the story was told.
  13. This thread motivated me to pull out my copy of Senior Cookin' for my after work listening, which I am enjoying right now.
