mjazzg Posted September 25 Report Posted September 25 Charles Mingus - Blue Bird [America Records, Japan 1978 RE] This session has such a quiet authority, no great Mingus-ian fireworks present or needed. Quote
clifford_thornton Posted September 25 Report Posted September 25 Always liked that one a lot. I have the French pressing. Don't know why that band doesn't get much love in the pantheon of Mingus. Quote

I confess that I was slightly motivated by comedian Stewart Lee listing his copy as his most prized possession. I remember friends who were reading his book when it came out (maybe a decade and a half ago now) asking me about the record. It was the last one available on Discogs and eventually I just caved. It always felt bizarre to own Topography and not this one, given that this is really the grand classique. Edited September 26 by Rabshakeh Quote

Glad it's found such a loving home! I hear Topography and Karyobin as ying and yang in a way, two sides of the UK scene at the time. Stevens always seems slightly removed from the more demonstrative approach as on Topography. Both complete classics notwithstanding. I should listen to them again, back to back and probably discover what I've just written is a load of bunkum... Quote

I think it is in that autobiography that he released in the late 00s. Rather slapdash but made a big impact at the time. 9 minutes ago, mjazzg said: I hear Topography and Karyobin as ying and yang in a way, two sides of the UK scene at the time.

I see Karyobin as the Shape of European Free Improv to Come and Topography as Spiritual Unity, Euro Free Improv edition. Quote
