Ran Blake: Film Noir (Arista Novus)

An intellectually and emotionally engaging collection of performances of film music and music inspired by films.

An added plus for me is that a portion of the liner notes was written by Andrew Sarris, my favorite film critic.

I join you in that preference. Sarris was part of my (soi-disant) intellectual upbringing. I used to read him in the Village Voice; not surprising since I attended NYU. "The American Cinema" is his best-known work, but I always liked "Confessions of a Cultist." Both sit on the shelf near me.

90s remaster. This rarely gets an airing and listening again I hear why. I don't hear Lacy and Cherry as a sympathetic pairing. Higgins is the star for me.

Just to give a responsible opposing viewpoint, as the radio stations in the U.S. used to say: This is my favorite early Lacy album; I think it works on every level.

Anthony Braxton - Composition 82 for Four Orchestras (Arista). I've been back and forth on this music for years. Tonight I'm spinning sides five and six, and enjoying it, in a modest way.

Do you know about the side "mix ups"? I should scan my notes from Cuscuna.

No, I don't. Please inform.

The tapes sent to the pressing plant were in manual order and the plant labeled them as automatic order. When presented with the rather large economic problem of recalling all the boxes and repressing the records, I was told Anthony decided the new sequence was interesting and should stand.

Here is the note included in my promo copy:

-sorry my file is too large - it says:

Discs are labelled all wrong!

Record one is 1 / 4 not 1 / 2

Record two is 2 / 5 not 3 / 4

Record three is 3 / 6 not 5 / 6

I have to print your post and include it in the Braxton box. Interesting! I need to give the new and old sequences a test run. BTW, isn't this in the Mosaic Braxton box? I assume the correct order was used there? (I don't have it handy).

Haven't seen it myself but heard the original "manufactured" order was repeated.
