clifford_thornton Posted March 8, 2007 Report Posted March 8, 2007 Dave Grant is the drummer on most of the tracks from that LP. Price or Rashied Ali were the usual drummers for the group; after Ali committed to Coltrane, Shelley Rusten became the drummer of choice. Byard Lancaster and Sam Rivers were frequent saxophone guests post-Marion. Amen on Frank Smith and "Taking it Out of the Ground." He now lives in the Bay Area, apparently, but doesn't do music. He was (and is) a painter as well. Quote
clifford_thornton Posted March 8, 2007 Report Posted March 8, 2007 Various - Inspiration & Power 14: Free Jazz Festival 1 (Trio) Now on a duo track from Masahikos Sato and Togashi; Masayuki Takayanagi is next! Quote
brownie Posted March 8, 2007 Report Posted March 8, 2007 Sunny Murray (ESP, stereo) with Jacques Coursil, Jack Graham, Byard Lancaster, Al Silva Man, I looove that one. 60's-style Sunny had just the right measure of anarchy, intelligence, and groove. (Coursil, among other quite formidable faces, is always welcome.) I'm still awed at the number of outstanding albums that ESP put out in the sixties. I was not sure at the time that that many would stand the test of time. I know better now -_- Quote
clifford_thornton Posted March 8, 2007 Report Posted March 8, 2007 Agreed on all counts. However, the Sunny LPs that I return to most are the Pathe and the Shandar. Quote

clifford_thornton Posted March 9, 2007 Report Posted March 9, 2007 Ric Colbeck - The Sun Is Coming Up - (Fontana UK orig) Now: Theo Loevendie Three - Stairs! - (Artone orig) Great trio with Maarten Altena and Johnny Engels (where the young Bennink got his sound, I think). Supposedly the first "proper" Dutch free jazz record, from '67. Quote
paul secor Posted March 9, 2007 Report Posted March 9, 2007 Alexander Spence: Oar I used to know the words to "Lawrence from Oblivion" or whatever it was called... Great record. "Lawrence of Euphoria" Oar is one of the handful of rock records (tho it's not a "rock" record at all) from the 60's that I still listen to these days. Quote
