Trios by Company (Incus). The record collecting bug is strange. This afternoon, for some reason, I became obsessed with trying to track down some of the Company recordings on my want list. It was a fun hunt, but at one point I asked myself, "Why don't you just play some of the Company recordings that you have, dumbass?"

So I'm playing this one, and enjoying it.

And it amuses me greatly that there is a musician who has recorded with Company, The Shaking Ray Levis, and The Band. So I guess that's tonight's trivia question.

Disk Union Shibuya had a copy of 'Company 4' (Incus) in stock yesterday, looked to be in good nick and reasonably priced for an Incus.

J.D. Parran! Does he play with a King Crimson vet on this one?

We have a winner! And yes, he plays with Mr. Muir on this record.

[His Boy Elroy]

If it happens, it will be expensive.

I'd definitely be interested, fwiw. That one's been on my list forever, it seems . . .

For me this is one of the more compelling Company titles along with the "epiphanies" 2LP.

Jamison Williams - Disney Classics, Vol. VI (Vantage Bulletin). Okay, this is weird. Jamison Williams is a Florida avant-garde saxophonist who is seemingly obsessed with all things Disney. This is the sixth extremely-limited-edition 7" record of solo soprano sax deconstructions of Disney songs he has put out. Each one is hand-lathed and comes with a "read-along storybook," as shown here. This one has "A Spoonful of Sugar" on one side and "When You Wish Upon a Star" on the other.

I also bought a similar limited-edition cassette (with storybook) of two duets with Dan Kozac: "Zip a Dee Doo Day" and "The Bare Necessities." The package (which arrived today) was full of all sorts of freebies, including several CDrs and another cassette.

It's all intriguing and fascinating, but I need to do some further listening to decided how good it actually is.

I have a lot of the Company records but not that one. I'll track one down.

Stockhausen "from the seven days" (DG, Germany 7LP box) I played two records last night, and am just midway through a third. I bought this a few years back but am only now trying to go through the entire thing. There's a ton of great music on here with most members of New Phonic Art present(Michel Portal and JF Jenny Clark being the big "jazz" names).

This simply suffers from "box set syndrome"...so much music & so little time!

[Homefromtheforest]

Dharma quintet "end starting" (SFP, France). A recent acquisition; killer electric piano battling acid guitar over a free jazz rhythm section...pretty frikken awesome!

[porcy62]

Japanese pressing.

"Guinneviere" from Davis' Bitches Brew Sessions, Mosaic.

Nice, just got a rip of that one. Usually when they come up for sale they're hammered!

I love that set. Got a fairly affordable copy quite a while back.

I find that whole idea oddly intriguing and tempting. I don't know why but maybe because it harks back to early childhood music/book packages, some great tunes and combuines that with a cottage-industry/craftsman, self production ethos.

I'd love to hear and see one in the flesh

Well, to MG's point, Batman's already been covered by Sun Ra...

Byard Lancaster was seemingly obsessed with "Somewhere over the Rainbow," which I associate with Disney.

Do you know this:

Brilliant (though high production) set of completely varied Disney interpretations.

Imagine the Disney songbook up to the late 60s played by the houseband on Pinocchio's Pleasure Island. A rather disturbing listen.

The Tom Waits version of "Heigh-Ho" on Stay Awake is very cool, and is one of my wife's favorite recordings.

Yes, Jamison Williams' Disney efforts have an appealing, do-it-yourself quality to them. And the covers all have Disney illustrations which have been disturbingly altered, as in the cover above, which features Snow White scrubbing a blood-stained Dopey.
