clifford_thornton Posted June 4, 2014 Report Posted June 4, 2014 I am pretty sure that both of Cooper's About Time LPs are still in print. You should contact ATR (board member) for details. The other one is with Jason Hwang, Wm Parker, Joseph Jarman and Thurman Barker and is called Outer and Interactions. Quote
Leeway Posted June 4, 2014 Report Posted June 4, 2014 Clifford, thanks and I'll keep the Cooper albums in mind. rhthmycicall BIRTH -- Keith Jarrett with Charlie Haden, Paul Motian, Dewey Redman. Atlantic LP. I only buy KJ when Dewey Redman's name is also on the album. This one is pretty good. Call me crazy but track 2, "Mortgage on My Soul" rhythmically sounds like a prototypical Vandermark 5 piece (minus the wah-wah), or I should turn it the other way around. Quote
clifford_thornton Posted June 4, 2014 Report Posted June 4, 2014 Yes, you are absolutely right. This is also like half the Clean Feed discography at this point... which is why I don't deal with any of it anymore. Not that it's bad, it's just... better left for someone else to listen to and figure out. And this is about 10x better than most of it. I wish I'd kept those Redman/Jarrett joints but honestly there's only so much shelf space. The first track on Where Fortune Smiles (Surman/McLaughlin/Berger/Holland/Martin) sounds like something the V5 woulda played when Jeb Bishop's guitar was still part of the palette. Quote
Leeway Posted June 4, 2014 Report Posted June 4, 2014 Glad I'm not imagining it! It's really uncanny. Just played: SONG FOR THE OLD WORLD - Anthony Davis Quartet with Ed Blackwell (d, box drums), Jay Hoggard (vibes), Mark Helias (b). India Navigation. Nice. Quote

Kevin Bresnahan Posted June 4, 2014 Report Posted June 4, 2014 (edited) Jimmy Heath - The Gap Sealer (Cobblestone). Kenny's electric piano still doesn't do a lot for me but I've gotten more & more used to it by this point in my life. I'd still rather hear him on an acoustic piano. Jimmy's playing is all right though. Edited June 4, 2014 by Kevin Bresnahan Quote

Lady of the Mirrors is great, but I've never found a copy that isn't scuffed/beat to hell. Need to get a sealed one I guess. Quote

Liberdade Posted June 5, 2014 Report Posted June 5, 2014 Vinny Golia Trio - ...in the right order...[Nine Winds] ooooohh! Nice FMP vinyl! Golia is perennially under-recognized but he is still a great player. The recorded start of that wonderful Lacy-Waldron connection: New Jazz/OJC LP. I'm only just discovering Golia. A couple of older dates on vinyl (one with John Carter) led me to try a 2011 CD and all good. Problem is Nine Winds distrib isn't great here so further investigation hampered by postage/customs costs. Carpathes is as good as I'd hoped. Not cheap but worth it I'd heard some of Michel Pilz's work before, but it was this post that made me realise I hadn't heard Carpathes. At the time, I picked up the download on destination out, and realised this was truly excellent, and then found a mint vinyl copy earlier this week, after a long search - again, not cheap! What great music this is. What other Michel Pilz (or indeed FMP) records would be recommended? Quote
Homefromtheforest Posted June 5, 2014 Report Posted June 5, 2014 "Jamabiko" and "celeste" are two other great Pilz albums.. Quote
clifford_thornton Posted June 5, 2014 Report Posted June 5, 2014 Still need to get a truly mint sounding Celeste. Had Jamabiko but it had some scuffs (free copy!), think I sold it to someone for $20. Records I used to have > Records I own Carpathes is pretty excellent though I admit I haven't listened to it in years. It really pissed off a (now ex-) girlfriend! Quote

Some guys want to know if their girlfriend is "on the pill" and some want to know if she is "on to Pilz." Sorry, couldn't resist. Still working the Ran Blake inventory at Casa Leeway: Owl LP. Pretty interesting. Quote
Liberdade Posted June 5, 2014 Report Posted June 5, 2014 I think I have Celeste somewhere, I'll check this evening. I've just noticed two Pilz LPs that seem to be in print on the bloc thyristors label; Binome (Jean-Noël Cognard & Michel Pilz) Ressuage (Jean-Noël Cognard & Benjamin Duboc & Patrick Muller & Itaru Oki & Michel Pilz) Anyone heard these, and would recommend them, or not? Quote
clifford_thornton Posted June 5, 2014 Report Posted June 5, 2014 Yeah, I need to get the other ones. There's one with Keith Tippett too. The duo with Cognard is real nice.

Pretty interesting. Looking forward to the rest. This is one of my favorite Blake LPs. I'm really puzzling over the liner notes on the back. Are they written by Ran? The left column is pretty straightforward, about Schuller, 3rd Stream and the NE Conservatory of Music. The right column though is perplexing. Were John Simon, Susan Sontag and Amiri Baraka figures that loomed large in Ran's personal landscape? Are the comments meant to be taken seriously? They are really rather inscrutable. It seems the very last paragraph might be intended humorously, but I'm not certain of that. Quote
