    good one. I am partial to Kanai's "Ode To Birds."
  2. clifford_thornton
    yeah, different beast, I'd think -- the Prestige Jazz Quartet didn't really do "jam sessions" as far as I am aware.
  3. clifford_thornton
    very good one.
  4. clifford_thornton
    aha, ok, thanks for the additional info.

    If I look up the Cookers on google, much current or recent-enough pr on the band still lists Harper as a member. I don't know the whole story (and maybe nobody outside the band does), but wasn't following closely enough to realize that he'd split.
  6. clifford_thornton
    wow, would've been great to see Hucko.
  7. clifford_thornton
    nope, Olio is with Frank Wess... nice record, though. Teo with the Prestige Jazz Quartet is another story.

    the only "Kennedy" that should be mentioned here without issue has a name that begins with Edward and ends with Ellington. The other guy, well......

    https://open.substack.com/pub/dadadrummer/p/what-is-the-artist-to-fascism?r=7ikr1&utm_campaign=post&utm_medium=web good piece by Damon Krukowski (Galaxie 500, Damon & Naomi)

    huh! ordered one the other day...

    Jim Cullum would get my vote. Saw him & his band in San Antonio, where he had a club. Definitely seemed like a solid group of players that he brought together. https://www.tpr.org/arts-culture/2019-08-11/jim-cullum-jr-jazz-band-leader-and-cornetist-dies-at-77?_amp=true

    New York Contemporary Five -- Consequences -- (Fontana, NL orig)

    Backordered copy just arrived; I was glad to see several shows represented that give me fond memories.
  14. clifford_thornton
    yeah, Bob Bruno of Noah Howard fame as well. Met him once, seems like a sweet guy.

    Very interesting. I too am very into the playing of Yamashita and Akiyoshi.
  16. clifford_thornton
    that's awesome!
  17. clifford_thornton
    Yup, first few cuts on disc two.

    good lord... I knew about the Birdland aspect, but not the other messiness.
  19. clifford_thornton
    yeah, wasn't aware of that one until yesterday. Looks great.
  20. clifford_thornton
    Looks like there is a fair amount of overlap between these Chant du Monde boxes and the Pablo box (which I have and love). It would be nice to have this stuff without buying part of it twice!

    Had this as Spanish Steps and let it go in a cull; certainly thought it was the best among the small amount of Hawes vinyl in the racks, none of which I kept. Maybe due for a reassessment.

    I used to have the United States of America as well as The American Metaphysical Circus on LP... interesting, though at the time they didn't really take. It seems line his more curious endeavors are "off the record(s)," so to speak. RIP.
  23. clifford_thornton
    👍🏼👍🏼👍🏼
  24. clifford_thornton
    I have the CD box but should get that again, just for the accessibility of LP sides. It is a great set.
  25. clifford_thornton
    Thanks for this writeup; it puts the album in a little more context. Maybe someday we'll get to hear it!
