Phantasmagoria, or A Different Kind of Journey by The Eivind Aarset 4-tet

I just got that box, too. Interesting extras. I grabbed this box when it was first released. Never been a huge CT fan, but I got it for 2 reasons: 1) it was a limited edition (now seems to be an in-demand collector's item), and 2) I saw them twice that year when I was working in a record store and they were heavily promoting with free tickets. Good shows, though!

I'm a JUGGERNAUT 😆🏈

Cool! Never seen him play piano before, although I know he's multi-talented.

Yes! I was surprised. Much more intense than I've seen in any of his other settings.

Saw Taborn last night at Other Minds. Never seen him solo before, but he was amazing. Much different than I expected. A real powerhouse, but also a unique style that I've never seen before.

Other Minds Festival is this week. Thinking of going on Wednesday. Opens with a performance by Swedish sound artist and composer Ellen Arkbro, whose chordal textures spread out like invisible sculptures—diamond formations for the listening mind. Arkbro will be followed by an improvised set by the American pianist and composer Craig Taborn, whose music melding the complexity of Iannis Xenakis with the sweetness of Francis Poulenc has been hailed by the New York Times for its “proud refusal to cater to expectations about what jazz, or even music, should be.”

Going for a THREE-PEAT! Montreal Alouettes - 55

Just because ... 😎

I like some graphic novels, but I'm very picky. Would really need to see this before buying.

Saw the latest edition of the SFJAZZ Collective last night: Chris Potter, Ed Simon, Warren Wolf, David Sanchez, Mike Rodriguez, Matt Brewer, Kendrick Scott

I need to listen to that. I've followed her wild ride of a career for a long time. This is her first in a while.

I used to have a stand-alone DVD of it, but I don't think it was numbered. Anyway, I got rid of it when the combined DVD/CD version came out a few years ago. It's now my favorite PT live album (used to be Anesthetize)

Good start!

Classic, for sure! I have all of those in the Mosaic box. Great album! Different from most of his other records.

Same here! It's a very "Chuck" album 😎
