Dave Liebman/Tatsuya Nakatina/Adam Rudolph - The Unknowable [RareNoise]

first of two new Liebman's on RareNoise Records (the other has Hamid Drake instead of Nakatina). This one is beautifully recorded. Rudolph's live processing really adds to the overall effect.

As a Liebman agnostic this was a bit of a risk but I'm pleased I took it

Very fine (and somewhat overlooked) date.

Booker Ervin's & John Handy's sax playing on "No Private Income Blues"!  Doesn't get any better than that!  :tup

McCoy Tyner - Passion Dance (Milestone, 1979) 
with Ron Carter & Tony Williams

I wish McCoy would've recorded more with Tony.  I think they're supremely well-suited to each other.  Tyner is one of the few pianists/musicians whose drive and power is every bit the equal of Williams'.  But IIRC their only collaborations are Passion Dance, Counterpoints (a companion disc from the same concert), and Supertrios

Am I missing anything?

Reading Joachim-Ernst Berendt's liner notes, I came across: "The most fluent of the early jazz clarinet players was not the overrated Sidney Bechet, but Albert Nicholas …." Leaving Albert Nicholas aside, the "overrated" comment about Sidney Bechet is one of the most ignorant things I've ever read (even granting that Bechet's main horn was soprano). I stopped reading the notes at that point.

I have that album, but don't remember that from the notes. That's really horrifyingly dumb.

Stan Getz - At Montreux (Polydor). The "Captain Marvel" band live in 1972. I don't believe this has ever been issued in the US, except in video form on a DVD with really awful sound. I bought this record in a little record shop near Lila Torg (Little Square) in Malmö , Sweden.

Now for something completely different:

Sly & the Family Stone - Greatest Hits (Epic). I haven't listened to Sly in years, but just found this near-mint LP, and I'm having a blast spinning it.

The Joe Daley Trio - At Newport '63 [RCA Victor]

first listen to today's arrival. Purchased simply because I've read so much about it on this board over the last few years and thought I'd better see what all the fuss was about!
