yeah, this is the Hemphill Black Saint I go to. And that Sarbib is good also; he's generally pretty excellent. in 2008 I wasn't as caught up on the Muhal Black Saint albums, but have since bought all except the duo with Amina, which for some reason is kind of hard to find. Can't recall the last time I saw one in the bins in a record store. The documentation of AACM, BAG, and artists in the Taylor orbit like Cyrille & Lyons (and Dixon, if you want to characterize Bill's work as such) in the 80s and 90s is probably where Bonandrini's curatorial strength really lay. I also think the George Russell dates released or re-released by Soul Note are pretty excellent.

Ah, too bad.

Really hard to pick and rank ten from the vast catalog of both labels. I haven't been truly disappointed by any of those that I've owned... well, the Waldon/Silvano duo isn't the best Mal and the Art Davis is a little underwhelming, but one could do worse than listening to either record.

ha! busy website design, didn't notice those. They're way at the bottom, when it might've made more sense to put them at the top.

never used one. I'd be curious to hear samples as well though I have more than enough "stuff" already.

originally released on... laserdisc! https://www.discogs.com/release/28411570-菊地雅章-六大-地水火風空識-Japanesque-Six-Elements-

so the tapes for the Don Ayler on Jihad do exist and they are with an archive, not sure about licensing however. (and I'd also add that I have no idea whether the tapes are in good enough condition to use)

Very interesting, thanks. Hames did some good work.

I haven't listened to that Jimmy Woods LP in years, but kinda feel, or felt, the same way about it.

What's the date? I'm not seeing it listed in the discography here: https://guitardiscography.com/wp-content/include-me/don-cherry/don-cherry-discography.php Usually, Siegfried Busch is credited as "Sigi" Busch, rather than "Tiki." The personnel lines up with the Hear & Now period, but I'm not seeing this specific session.

had not heard this acetate before, very interesting.

Also: Ivo Perelman (b. 1961), Stephen Haynes (b. 1955), Takeru Muraoka (b. 1941), Ronald Shannon Jackson (1940-2013), Hadley Caliman (1932-2010). Good day for birthdays!

yeah, that Don Ayler is one I'd like to hear as well (if it survived).

color me confused about all these Hat-derivations.

Most unfortunate news; RIP, Bob, and thank you for the music.

William is a national treasure.

I rarely check the non-music zone & I didn't see this on the day... so again, thank you very much!

Thanks, gents! Appreciate it!

Thanks; figured I should get something on the "record."

I texted Ben and these "sessions" did not occur or are highly improbable at best.

Ben might know, yeah.

Understood on these fronts. It is a dark and difficult world scene. I deal with pretty intense depression, surely not the only person here who does, and though the board is a nice respite, music doesn't always do it for me. But this community has been a great help even when I am just pithily responding to some discographical query.

Really? I think of you as a core poster. And yes, makes sense that an established community would bristle at an influx.
