Marion there looks like something inbetween disinterested in badass--I'd hew toward the latter, as it really seems to fit the music inside. Funny how a lot of old "free" record covers are so urbane--the stuff inside is death.

Bags & Trane, ..on Atlantic. This LP has always been overshadowed by Trane's other Atlantic sides....but lately I've been listening to it alot. Really amazing....

I love the Howard+Wright+Few+(etc.) group like no one's business. I actually prefer it to the one sans Howard but with Silva, if only because Howard seemed to bring out the most aggressive elements of Wright's playing.

I think they're a great combo, esp. if you mean by "aggressiveness" an aggressive flow of ideas, which Howard definitely brought out in the Reverend.

On deck:

Frank Wright - Your Prayer - (ESP orig; this one's for Songer!)

Ted Daniel - Sextet - (Ujamaa orig)

Yeah, tell me about it. It's one of my favorite Marion sides, precisely because it's totally unhinged... Bennink is like a scrap-heap being thrown down the White House stairs! Considering that it's the same vintage as both New Acoustic Swing Duo and the Loevendie/Altena/Engels trio Stairs! (Artone [& Bennink got his bag more from Johnny Engels early on, then incorporated Milford]), the shit that MMH unleash is not surprising, and quite welcome.

Strange that the CD issue pairs it with only half of the Creative Improvisation Ensemble LP.

I especially like the original Porto Novo cover:

I had this one ages ago in my collection - somewhere in the late 1960s - early 1970s when I often visited concerts with Han Bennink.

Keep swinging
