Julius Hemphill, Raw Materials and Residuals (Black Saint). ?????? Has Abdul Wadud ever been on a bad album?

Dudu Pukwana and Spear, In the Townships (Caroline). 

 

 Great choices.  "Flute music" is also well worth getting if you do not have it.  I just finished spinning that Hemphill LP myself as your post inspired me to play it again.  The music is excellent, but to me it suffers a bit due to that typical Black Saint tinny/trebly production.

Right now:

Black Unity Trio "al-fatihah" (salaam). Probably one of my favorite free jazz albums ever...if I ever did my own "top ten free jazz list" a la Thurston Moore then this would definitely be on it.

Big John Patton/Grachan Moncur III 'Soul Connection' (Nilva)

is this good?  What's it like?

It's a great one. One of my favourites from Big John.

Very good session put out by Alvin Queen - and Moncur features strongly.

ok just bought a mint copy off discogs for $20...cheap enough to try and the presence of Moncur is the big draw for me!

Black Unity Trio is a masterpiece--I love that album and thanks to you, I've heard it.

I'm spinning the Hemphill again. I agree with you about the sound, but the playing is tremendous.

NYC mono means you don't have to go quite so deeply into the corner, I suspect:)
