sidewinder is killing it right now - would love to be over at his place with a pint and some rarities.

Ditto! Those Mike Taylor albums are worth at least $10 I hear ;)

Damn. I sold mine for $15 the two only last weekend as they were cluttering up the flat

BALLROOM MARFA - Fire Into Music:

Jemeel Moondoc (reeds)

Steve Swell (trombone)
William Parker (bass)
Hamid Drake (percussion)

(Maybe should add the freight train that rumbles by too).

Jerome Richardson Goes to the Movies (UA mono). I found this one, as well as the Med Flory above, at a "pop-up" LP sale in a warehouse not far from my house - 40,000 unsorted records in boxes on the floor. I spent about an hour there and probably only looked through a quarter of the boxes. Mostly junk, of course, but I walked out with seven LPs, in exchange for which I gave the guy the five bucks he asked for. Anyway, this Jerome Richardson album, which I thought could be pretty lame, is very good.

Later: To elaborate - no matter how unpromising some of the material looks ("Never on Sunday"?), the arrangements are imaginative, and Richardson plays as if his life depends on it. Really glad I discovered this one.

I enjoy that one a lot (including the freight train solo)

I've seen that LP a couple of times - seems to be fairly coveted by the DJ set.

When O-Board Shawn (the All-Time A-1 World Champeen Jerome Richardson Fan, for sure!) lived here (in the DFW area, not in front of my computer in my house), he hipped to this side. It is indeed a solid stone gas, and came up as one of those mystery-pressed New Copy vinyls at DG a while back. I can only second what implicit implications to carpe diem this bad boy that are in the air at this moment.

DANCE - Paul Motian Trio: PM (d), David Izenzon (b), Charles Brackeen (ts, ss). Sept 1977. White label promo (FWIW, but a nice copy).

Very much enjoy Brackeen's playing here, but then the whole trio is very fine.

Yeah, live often provides that extra shot of energy that can turn even a ballad into a heavy hitter.

More Motian, but also some Jim Pepper:

Paul+Motian+Quintet+-+Misterioso+-+cover

MISTERIOSO - Paul Motian Quintet - w/Jim Pepper (ts, ss), Joe Lovano (ts), Bill Frisell (elec g), Ed Schuller (b). Soul Note 1986.
