Ingebrigt HÃ¥ker Flaten Chicago Sextet - Live at Jazz Festival Saalfelden 2011 - (Tektite)

how is that Clifford? Interesting line up indeed but hefty price tag to europe

I didn't take to the 'year of the boar' release much and was underwhelmed by that line-up live but anything with Adasiewicsz is worth my attention I find

hmm . I checked out the price. At £26 or so I wonder how many will make their way across the pond. I enjoyed Year of the Boar FWIW.

It's good, but not "forceful" music in the way that The Thing or even Atomic are. Some of it is almost in the vein of 'post-rock' Chicago stuff. The sound and pressing/presentation is nice, though. I noticed that on the website it says "350 copies" but mine is signed/numbered "433/500."

Now:

Steve Lacy - Sideways - (Roaratorio)

Phil Sunkel's Jazz Band (ABC Paramount). A really wonderful "sleeper" of an album from 1956 - never released on CD, to my knowledge, but apparently available as a download (without the kinda stupid, kinda great cover). Sunkel was one of those cool-ish bebop trumpeters like Don Joseph or Tony Fruscella; here he leads a small big band (four brass, three saxes, and three rhythm) in a program he mostly wrote himself. There are no big names, but most folks would recognize a few of the musicians. Imaginative, different, and excellent.

I stand corrected.
