Thanks. Has 4 more tracks than my copy. Could be an Item out of the FSR stable I havent seen.
Extra tracks are from Brownie with strings album IIRC. Sound wasn’t as good as other emArcy reissues

The fairly new Michael Formanek Quartet CD (Malaby, Kris Davis, Ches Smith) is excellent.
BTW, Alexander Hawkins wrote the notes for that one too.
I’ll need to check that out. I rate Kris Davis highly but haven’t heard much from her in the past few years

I had the pleasure of writing the liner notes for Angelika's new one, which I think is stunning!
Well Beyond Dragons arrived yesterday with the Stones album! Unusual combination. Any rate Niesceier’s Intakt release has real urgency. It’s a trio with the incredible Tomeka Reid and Savannah Harris ( new name to me I think) . I think all the Niescier I’ve heard has been on Intakt but once again she leaves a substantial positive impression. I’ll definitely keep her name on my must listen list. Recommended

Allen Kwela-----Black Beauty-----(Matsuli)
Matsuli produce some really lovely reissues of South African music. Everything is done to the highest standards. This set has gentle SA township vibe.
-
Next ...Miyazawa Akira-----Bull trout------(Victor/HMV) -another very fine piece of Japanese free(ish) jazz. Recent reissue.
-
More Japanese jazz this morning its..
Masahiko Togashi-----We Now Create---(Victor Jpn) -recent reissue
-
CD on its way from Poland. Looking forward to hearing it.
-
Takeru Muraoka------Takeru-----(Superfly/Universal) 2021 reissue of 1970 date.
Takeru sounds quite in debt to Wayne Shorter to my ears. Fine set
-
I’d agree. Intakt’s output is always interesting. I’m eagerly awaiting the new Angelika Niescier release.
-
Juhani Aaltonen-----Etiquette-----(Love)
Fine Finnish free (ish) jazz

Like what? Always intrigued when 'obscure' scenes have a light shine on them
Max this afternoon
Max Roach - Chattahoochee Red [Columbia, 1981]
Picked up for the country price of a couple of pints of beer in a dusty country town shop yesterday. What a terrific listen
Now onto
Max Roach Quartet - Nommo [Victor, Japan 1978]
also on Altercat from seventies Argentina/Brazil
-
Hard to know how to categorise this music other than it's good. Cinematic, jazz, funk spiritual etc. Interesting stuff from Argentina 1976 - reissued on Altercat
-
Arne Domnerus 6tet (artist EP)
nice 4 track EP from 1960 featuring Jan Allan, Rune Falk a.o. West coast vibe - not especially Scandi . Reminds me of “I want to live” .

Of course, they're pretty much all like that, but, you know, can't help but have a favorite)

I think that's an excellent record. More evidence that we all hear differently. 😉
I lent this to a friend having not listened to it in years. I thought it'd be right up his street. He hated it. I listened to it all the way the through this afternoon. Love it I do. It takes all sorts.
Bengt Berger----Bitter Funeral Beer----(ECM)

Hacke Bjorksten----- All star sextet-----(Sonet Sweden) EP
1957 EP with a slightly more muscular west coast sound. Sonet pressing looks like a mogul field with multiple small 2-3 mm rimmed craters in the vinyl. I've only ever seen this pressing defect on other Swedish Sonet EPs. Plays through despite this.
-
Sound of the reissue is immaculate. Only minor grip is that the quality of the cover is pretty average.
-
Börje Fredriksson -------s/t---------(EMI Odeon)
Posthumously issued in 1969. Its as least as good as Intervall which I think was the only album issued during his short lifetime. I keep hoping that more might come out but he's a pretty marginal figure despite his excellence. This , Intervall and a compilation on Caprice are all available on streaming sites. Intervall was reissued on CD and LP in fairly recent times. I've recommended him before and make no apology for doing so again.

I’ll be passing. Mainly because I have all of it but also because Sonny’s trio albums underwhelm me.

I like the Rempis too.
The Marion Brown is very good, if not as "edgy" as some of the others.
I really like the Marion Brown Bremen set. The music is top notch and the sound superb. Its pretty timeless set that could have been recorded anytime over the past fifty years

Batsumi-----self titled -----(Matsuli) 2023 reissue of 1974 South African jazz recording
I've a lot of time for the material curated by Matsuli label , even if I've never heard of the material they always deliver (based on a half dozen of their recent re- releases)
-
Nor mine , at least not intentionally…
