Great idea for a topic! Makes you think.

BYRON ALLEN: INTERFACE (ACC PRODUCTIONS)

You wouldn't choose the ESP?

Why? I should have too?

I don't like this album (great cover though) and I didn't care about BYRON ALLEN until I find this gem.

It's close to the SONNY SIMMONS'S ANCIENT RITUALS (In fact it's the contrary as the BYRON ALLEN is much older).

FRED ANDERSON: THE MISSING LINK (NESSA) - Vintage Duets 1980 (Okka) A possible choice.

ALBERT AYLER: SPIRITUAL UNITY (ESP) - oh yes.

DEREK BAILEY & JOELLE LÉANDRE: NO WAITING (POTLACH) - Duo & Trio Improvisations (Kitty /Universal Japan) Don't Know this one, anyway I have way too much Bailey to whom I don't listen much

CONRAD BAUER: BETWEEN HEAVEN AND EARTH (INTAKT) - don't know much

TIM BERNE: THE SHELL GAME (THIRSTY EAR) - Ornery People (Little Borther). Could has choice SCIENCE FRICTION but the presence of DUCRET forbide me to.

ART BLAKEY'S JAZZ MESSENGER: WITH THELONIOUS MONK (ATLANTIC) - don't know much

PAUL BLEY: HOMMAGE TO CARLA (OWL) - agree

ANTHONY BRAXTON: WILLISAU (1991) (HAT ART) - tough one. Probably 8 Dutes. Hamburg 1991 (with Peter-Niklas Wilson). No comment.

PETER BRÖTZMANN: DIE LIKE DOG (FMP) - 14 Love Poems + more (FMP)

CLIFFORD BROWN: MEMORIAL ALBUM (BLUE NOTE) - don't know much. This album I like.

MARION BROWN: WHY NOT? (ESP) - haven0't heard ESPs, which seem to be essential. Of what I know, Reeds & Vibes (IAI).

JOHN BUTCHER: FIXATIONS (14) (EMANEM) - Guerilla Mosaic (482 Music). I like BUTCHER mostly in solo. He doesn't interfer so well with others.

JACKY BYARD: OUT FRONT (CANDID) To Them -To Us (Soul Note)

JOHN CARTER & BOBBY BRADFORD: SEEKING (HAT ART) - haven't heard much.

BAIKIDA CARROLL: SHADOW AND REFLECTIONS (SOUL NOTE) - Marionette on a High Wire (Omnitone). MARIONETTE is, to this ears, his weakest album to date

THOMAS CHAPIN: HAYWIRE (KNITTING FACTORY W)- don't know much

DON CHERRY: MU - FIRST PART/ SECOND PART (BYG/ FUEL)) - Old & New Dreams (ECM), or if this one does not count, Eternal Rhythm. Yeah, great album but not particularly a DON CHERRY one.

BILL DIXON: SONS OF SISYPHUS (SOUL NOTE) - In Italy (Soul Note)

ERIC DOLPHY: CONVERSATIONS (CELLULOID RECORDS) - Live with Little, Waldron, Blackwell and Davis (forgot where exactly). This one feature the best and the most moving tune DOLPHY has ever recorded, his duet with ART DAVIS on ALONE TOGETHER. But I like as much LIVE AT THE FIVE SPOTS.

DAVE DOUGLAS: FIVE (SOUL NOTE) - don't know

HAMID DRAKE & SABIR MATEEN: BROTHERS TOGETHER (EREMITE) - don't like either

MARK DRESSER & RAY ANDERSON: NINE SONGS TOGETHER (CIMP) - Aquifer (Cryptogrmophon) for Dresser. Don't know Anderson too well.

PAUL DUNMALL: GHOSTLY THOUGHTS (hatOLOGY). Don't know much, but of what I heard "Ghostly Thoughts" is his less interesting release. So far I'd go for Master Musicians of MU (Slam). Nop. I've more than twenty rec. from Dunmall. This one still stand as the best

JOHNNY DYANI: ANGOLIAN CRY (STEEPLE CHASE) -don't have this one. Of what I heard I like Some Jive Ass Boer (Terrones) the most. Don't know this Terrones one.

CHARLES GAYLE: TOUCHIN' ON TRANE (FMP) -don't like Gayle, but yet, this is the best one

GIANNI GEBBIA: ARCANA MAJOR/ SONIC TAROTS SESSION (STEREOSUPREMO/ RASTASCAN) - heh-heh. Not on the same level of the best BRAXTON solo, though. And his tarot/mysticisme is annoying me

STAN GETZ: SERENITY (EMARCY) - Focus (Verve). The least choice that I could make. I can't stand this SAUTER orchestra.

JIMMY GIUFFRE: 1961 (ECM) - yes! Could have choose FREE FALL or EMPHASIS & FLIGHT, though.

GLOBE UNITY ORCHESTRA: 20TH ANNIVERSARY (FMP) - agree

VINNY GOLIA: ONE, THREE, TWO (JAZZ'HALO) - haven't heard that much. This one is good. Of what I heard I liked "Hunting the spirits inside them" (Music & Arts) the most. LINEAGE is also a great one

BENNY GOLSON: TURNING POINT (MERCURY) -don't know

DENNIS GONZALES: CATHECHISM (MUSIC & ARTS) -agree NEW YORK MIDNIGHT SUITE is his equal.

DEXTER GORDON: DOIN' ALLRIGHT (BLUE NOTE) -don't know OUR MAIN IN PARIS is a close second

MATTS GUSTAFSSON: FROGGING (MAYA) - don't know this one. Of what I know - Impropositions

GERRY HEMINGWAY: SLAMADAM (RANDOM ACOUSTICS) - Johnny' Corner Song (Auricle)

JULIUS HEMPHILL: RAW MATERIALS AND RESIDUALS (SOUL NOTE) - Coon Bid'ness (DA Music) I have this one on FREEDOM, what is this DA MUSIC label?

JOE HENDERSON: INNER URGE (BLUE NOTE) - Elements (Milestones / Fantasy) ELEMENTS? Strange choice. JOE HENDERSON is not JOE HENDERSON here, but some kind of clone of COLTRANE. To play this part, SANDERS would have been a better choice

ANDREW HILL: POINT OF DEPARTURE (BLUE NOTE) - oh yes

DAVE HOLLAND CONFERENCE OF THE BIRD (ECM) - Don't like this one. Music from Two Basses (ECM) That seems impossible to me but everything can happen, I suppose

FREDDIE HUBBARD: RED CLAY (CTI) - agree

DANIEL HUMAIR: LIBERTÉ SURVEILLÉ (SKETCH) - Hummair / Jeanneau / Texier 1979 (Owl / Universal France)

KEITH JARRETT: EL JUICIO (THE JUDGEMENT) (ATLANTIC) - don't know much

ANDRÉ JAUME: PEACE/ PACE/ PAIX (CELP) - agree!

SVEN-AKE JOHANSSON: SIX LITTLE PIECES FOR QUINTET (hatOLOGY) - agree, but haven't heard much (the man has a huge discogrpahy on his own label). I choose this one because I like it a lot but I must confess that I don't know much about JOHANSSON as a leader

CHRIS JONAS: THE SUN SPITS CHERRIES (HOPSCOTCH) - pardon my ignorance

ELVIN JONES: LIVE AT THE VILLAGE VANGUARD (ENJA) - don't have much solo Elvin

FRANZ KOGLMAN: L'HEURE BLEUE (hatOLOGY) - Affair with Strauss (between the lines) AAWS is a good one but less interesting than the best HAT

LEE KONITZ: OUT OF NOWHERE (STEEPLE CHASE) - goo one, but I prefer It's you (SteepleChase) MOTION could have been another choice for me. But I like IT'S YOU to

PETER KOWALD: WAS DA IST (FMP) - can't get away from it. Me either

PETE LA ROCA: BASRA (BLUE NOTE) - don't know

STEVE LACY (COX/ HUMAIR): WORKS (SKETCH) - great one, but if I had to choopse one, I'd go for Morning Joy (hatOLOGY)

GEORGE LEWIS: HOMMAGE TO CHARLES PARKER (BLACK SAINT) - don't have htis one! You really should

JOHN LINDBERG (GEORGE LEWIS/ BARRY ALTSCHUL): GIVE AND TAKE (BLACK SAINT) - haven't heard this one, from what I know - The Catbird Sings BOUNCE is also a good one

CHARLIE MARIANO: ALTO SAX FOR YOUNG MODERNS (BETHLEHEM) - duo with Andre Jaume on CELP

BYRON ALLEN: INTERFACE (ACC PRODUCTIONS)

You wouldn't choose the ESP?

Why? I should have too?

I don't like this album (great cover though) and I didn't care about BYRON ALLEN until I find this gem.

It's close to the SONNY SIMMONS'S ANCIENT RITUALS (In fact it's the contrary as the BYRON ALLEN is much older).

'course not! Just a real surprise, especially since it rarely comes to light that he had two, let alone one, dates under his own name.

There was a great interview with Paul Byron Allen in Cadence several years ago; I should dig that one up.

"Louis Armstrong Plays W. C. Handy"--I'd keep my SACD. This would be the one Pops cd (I have so many!) I would keep. It has great sentimental value --- finding this lp really excited me and I listened to it over and over and learned a lot from it; I made a few great rest of my life long friends in concert with this recording; and this album helped me to spend some quality time with a beautiful woman wnen I was fresh to college and really needed to.

But beyond that I think it represents the best of Pops. It is pure entertainment, Pops the charmer and disarmer. It is pure artistry--classic songs reinvented and executed with elan and verve and gravity. And it's a showcase for stupendous trumpeting (yes, I really think so) and singing from a man at a high point, ambassador of jazz to the world, wise man of jazz and pop who had something to say and was saying it.

On top of that I feel it is a spectacular recording from an engineering standpoint. Vivid, real, deep sound that fits the material like a glove. Trummy is scary real at times!

I love this work. No one could take it away from me.
