mjazzg Posted February 4, 2015 Report Posted February 4, 2015 Matana Roberts - Coin Coin Chapter Three, River Run Thee [Constellation] another very singular and personal statement. First listen reveals a denser tapestry of sounds than previously despite it effectively being a solo recording. Spoken word, found sound, singing and saxophone all emerge from a sometimes dense seemingly electronic haze. This will require many listens to fully reveal its depths, I suspect. Intrigued.... Quote

Leeway Posted February 6, 2015 Report Posted February 6, 2015 Intense and compelling but maybe just a bit tamped down (the influence of Motian?). "Clarence" Herb Robertson, though, blazes away. I don't recall other albums where Herb uses his full first name name. Quote
clifford_thornton Posted February 6, 2015 Report Posted February 6, 2015 It's the influence of that "Bonandrini sound" - c'mon, everyone knows that! Quote

I was in the control room for that session. Cuscuna missed his flight to Chicago, called me and I just sat back and let Muhal run things. IIRC, I forgot a scarf in the studio. This is a habit. Quote

Homefromtheforest Posted February 7, 2015 Report Posted February 7, 2015 Sun Ra "visits planet earth" (Saturn, USA). Have not played this red label original in many years..even though the vinyl looks great there is almost constant soft crackles in the background Still at least the music overpowers and I love the cover art!

Homefromtheforest Posted February 7, 2015 Report Posted February 7, 2015 Sun Ra "cosmic tones for mental therapy" (Saturn, USA). A favorite of mine...love the liberal use of archaic delay/reverb! Quote
jeffcrom Posted February 7, 2015 Report Posted February 7, 2015 Sun Ra "cosmic tones for mental therapy" (Saturn, USA). A favorite of mine...love the liberal use of archaic delay/reverb! One of my favorite Ra albums as well, although I only have a CD reissue. There's almost no reference to any musical world except the one Ra created. Listening to something very different this morning: Hollywood Saxophone Quartet - Sax Appeal (Liberty). Arrangements (and originals) by Lennie Niehaus. Quote
