Hopefully a Bandcamp or other downloadable option will be available.

Agreed. These products are unregulated which poses issues on several fronts, public health being a biggie. I have friends that use weed and shroom products that display self testing results, and these friends haven't had any issues. Those products are purchased at higher end boutique stores and not the quickie mart. That's why I'm wondering what products are being used in the linked article, and if there's any studies cited. That still has a paywall unfortunately. Maybe it works for others?

Paywalled article. Not a fan of Bari Weiss publications or involvement anywhere (RIP CBS news). She doesn't produce work in good faith. But, did the article mention where these patients were getting this legal weed? Asking bc a recent study on legal hallucinogenic mushrooms focused on those products that came from gas stations which is problematic.

Not my thing but I would not call this jazz. Music is blues, vocals are soul-ish.

From Durham NC. Ain't no forgetting him here.

Lol yeah but that coach is on the hot seat and he's got to gamble on the rookie(s) in a desperate play to keep his job. Probably not going to work but whoever is their next HC they at least have a good defense to build from.

I'm way way behind in listening to tracks in this thread. This one is excellent.

Never had any clear jewel cases in a set before. If they did a small run of the Clark I wonder if they used a different supplier?

Didn't look at the credits last night but yeah, it's Klemmer. I had no idea

New one for me but released 1976:

Good work! I would have never guessed it in a million years.

Not his most famous video but this got me to get that first CD. Love this kind of production for R&B. He always had other contemporary artists and musicians giving him props. Hate this happened. Way too young. RIP

This looks great. Thanks for posting.

Is it Sam Rivers on 4? If not then is it Howard Johnson on tuba?

As fine as kidney stew

Yeah, this is a burner. She gets hyped for At Last but she's way way more than that tune.

I had no idea about this Etta James album on Chess. It's excellent.

I almost thought a new sludge band just dropped but there's no way Dan G is into that.

Congrats to y'all. Any plans to offer the album via Bandcamp?

Those un-ID'd songs bear repeated listens really well. Arthur Blythe on 4? The solos on track 3 are really enjoyable, including the Rhodes which isn't easy to pull off. This one gets better as it goes along. I struck out on Buddy, but how about Billy Higgins on drums? Whoever these guys are they are really good.

On second listen through Cyrille is killing me on track 2. Sitting here thinking this would be better with no drums and that's a rare spot for me to be in. Love the rest of it though. Is that a Buddy Rich band on track 3? 4 is reminiscent of Le Rex. Drumming sets it as recent I think. Is track 6 from a recent reissue?

So all three pianists playing at the same time?

Every time I see Artie Shaw I think of Elaine from Seinfeld guessing Next Stop Pottersville to get Mr. Pitt the win at Thanksgiving. Elaine would have been hell on a blind fold test.

So reading the blurb on CDJapan: Regarding the reissue:. *The original analog master from the MOSAIC RECORDS 10-LP BOX release in 1995 was used (due to the whereabouts of the master from the US CD production, which is almost equivalent in content, being unknown). *The mastering was done using the above analog master digitized to 192KHz/24bit and converted to DSD, realizing the world's first SACD hybridization. *The CD layer also uses the latest remastered sound sources. *Mastering engineers: Koji Suzuki and Kaoru Ishibashi (Sony Music Studio) *Includes 10 tracks that are 1 to 2 minutes longer or 9 minutes longer than the first domestic release (the first complete domestic release). *New commentary by Takao Ogawa; 16-page booklet in English, with Japanese translations of each disc's booklet. *Stereo recording So is this a new mastering then, one that uses the Mosaic master? Reads like that to me but correct me if I'm wrong there.

I saw some live Chinese opera some years ago and that was wild. I had no idea what was going on. If I ever see it again I hope it's with someone or some kind of resource that explains it. Jarring, for sure. And not something I've revisited since, but something that I could see had depth. Kind of in that neighborhood, this Plugged Nickel set has always been a challenge for me to listen to. I don't seek it out either. I'm on the fence for this CD set.
