    Haven’t read Cole’s Miles but I did read his Coltrane bio. Bill Cole is also a very interesting musician! Saw his Untempered Ensemble a couple of times.

    Yeah, I have that Jackie. Cool artwork indeed.

    I imagine the British jazz reissue programme cued up to the "Bring out your dead" sequence in The Holy Grail...

    I got pretty annoyed with Iverson's list as it touched on anything after about 1959. It *seemed* fine where earlier recordings are concerned.

    I can't really give details but as far as I know all the basic work is done and it is awaiting manufacture. It's done with the cooperation of Tyler's (rather confusing) estate.

    Yep. A reissue is coming, from the tapes.

    I've been revisiting Alvin Fielder's A Measure of Vision (Dennis González, Chris Parker, Aaron González, Stefan González) recently and think it's one of the label's finest.

    what he said.

    other than the Grant, I have all those that you've posted on LP. Excellent.

    Judging from the labels on the verso, I see only a few that are super expensive, and all of those have been reissued (Ra, Pullen-Graves, Black Unity Trio, and Cairo Free Jazz Ensemble). Cautiously hoping that it won’t be all flexing…

    The only way to give these albums proper “period” artwork is to build a time machine, go back, and have them issued in the 1960s. Failing that… we get what we get! FWIW, the Japan-only designs that King used on some titles are pretty appealing. Not all LT’s had concurrent Japanese versions, however. And some of those Kings did not appear in the US until much later.

    Ha, I had no idea!

    Brötzmann did release an LP titled 14 Love Poems (inspired by Kenneth Patchen), which is quite excellent.

    the cover photo on the Mother Ship CD is all right; I have the 1980 LT version which is a bit less inspiring. Neither match what a 1960s design could have looked like.

    Huh! I have the 1982 LP set, interesting music that I haven't dug out in too long. What are the legal troubles that have buried it since, I wonder?
