Ok, glad others see them too. It's definitely not easy to find with that page design. Maybe the OP found them as well.

Does anyone else see the SoundCloud clips on the original post's link? There's about 4 or so and they're approx 6 mins long.

Ohhhh baby. I think my laser disc player actually still works!

The link you provided has Soundcloud links for at least some of these tracks. You may not be able to listen to them in France perhaps? From what I'm listening to, there's a strong tinge of ambient electronic sounds which give way to some beats here and there. It's a little eclectic, but they're interesting. I'm not hearing anything jazz related. I've listened to Aurora before and I'd say what I'm hearing on these sample tracks is much better than that album.

He's playing with guys I've never really heard of, which doesn't matter overall, but I'd love to hear some samples regardless.

Tony Coe's Axel "What Say We Play Today?" Recorded live in '77 at the Camden Jazz Festival in London. Four gloriously long tracks that are a great listen. https://jazzinbritain1.bandcamp.com/album/what-say-we-play-today

Oh yeah, Off to the Races is a great tune. Hadn't heard the L'Olympia version before. It's a treat to listen to these guys live.

Nice. Thanks for the word.

I sure as hell wasn't sleuthing that out. Well done @cayetano

Sleuthed track 9. Just went with the very few current-day clarinetists I could think of and hit pay dirt. It's track 4 from this album. This one rewards repeated listens as well.

I have and enjoy that Verve 2-fer. Have you gotten any of the Resonance sets? I have the Indiana Avenue one, and those liners were great. Basically, Wes barely slept. Worked full time at a factory and then played at night into the early hours of the next day.

Yeah, that seems out of the ordinary. I don't know much about Ponomarev but this was between his stint with Art Blakey and his first solo record. Wonder how he connected with Marsh?

Discogs pics have a description of what this references:

The Marsh is from this one. Personnel includes Curtis Boyd, Steve LaSpina and Valery Ponomarev Per the search there were only a couple of the live sets with a trumpet player so that helped.

I like the way you set this BFT up. It helps amateurs like myself track down these songs.

Ha, my bad. Outtake is the wrong word. "Taken from" would be a better choice. With Willis Jackson ID'd, I found track 8. It's track 6 from this album. And you were totally correct about the B3 player. I've never heard of him.

It ran like a play to me, basically being a one-room set for most of the film. I thought that was weird and it took me out of it unfortunately. Some great performances but low on my list for QT films. This however, was incredible. Eggers is one of my favorite directors and I make sure to catch all of his films.

To add the label in question, Sam Records, is - AFAIK, a small business. Basically a guy with a business model to release quality LPs that jazz loving vinyl buyers are looking for. I don't think he's aligned with any major labels and again, AFAIK, isn't breaking any laws. Some of his LPs aren't up my alley personally, but some are and the ones I've gotten are fantastic and great listens. Hope you come back more often 🍻

Is track 4 an outtake from the Phil Schaap collection? By sheer coincidence I started listening to a Marsh Quartet recording there yesterday (having no idea it was Marsh on this BFT) and while there's no trumpet on the one I'm listening to, the recording itself sounds similar.

Famously, at least to me, hanging on the wall behind Tobin Bell in an episode of Seinfeld

Awesome info. Thanks for shining a light on that. I didn't know about O'Brien or this label at all. Great find @JSngry

Milt Buckner on track 8?

Listening to Thanksgiving now. Tom Harrell involved as player and arranger. Best I've listened to so far. Breakbeat alert: Found another winner on You're Not Elected

Interestingly enough the Breckers are on both the AWB Pick up the Pieces and the Sanborn track.
