gnhrtg Posted April 30, 2004 Report Share Posted April 30, 2004 D.D. - that would be the last place I'd have thought of checking for this type of music and having checked almost all of my usual sources, I had given up on this. Just mailed them to ask whether they do have it in stock, we'll see. Thank you. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Д.Д.

Just mailed them to ask whether they do have it in stock, we'll see. Thank you. Themusicresource often has good music that you would not find anywhere else. And often it does not. When it comes to free-avant-out-funnyrat stuff, form my 3-year experience with themusicresource.com, their availability database is 75% accurate. They are not very good in responding to e-mails, so I sugest you just go ahead and order. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
J.A.W. Posted April 30, 2004 Report Share Posted April 30, 2004 As for Funny Rat album - all this out stuff sounds the same anyway - just plain noise. So it does not matter which one we discuss -it's all Funny Rat. Some of the noise is very loud, though... As I mentioned, I am getting my copy as soon as we rich 1400 posts on this thread (mid- to late- may, I assume). Less than 100 to go... Saving up yet?

Guest Chaney Posted April 30, 2004 Report Share Posted April 30, 2004 This may be of interest: NEW WORLD RECORDS CRI Update March 2004 We are pleased to announce that the catalogue of Composers Recordings, Inc. will become a permanent part of New World Records. We expect that the process of integrating such a large and prestigious catalogue will take some time. As New World Records and Composers Recordings, Inc. are both public foundations, this transfer first must be approved by the New York State Attorney General's office. That process has begun. When approved, and after the Trustees of both organizations formally ratify the transfer, New World Records will begin offering titles that were originally released on CRI. We are committed to keeping every title active in our catalogue and available at all times. In the meantime, CRI titles are still available for purchase from: Qualiton Imports 24-02 40th Avenue Long Island City, NY 11101 Tel. 718.937.8515 Fax 718.729.3239 www.qualiton.com We expect a smooth transition from the liquidation of the remaining CRI inventory to the creation and introduction of new versions of the titles in the CRI catalogue. We do not expect any interruption in the availability of any title. Please check back to this page periodically for updates on our progress. If you have a specific question please direct it to me.

Matthew Posted April 30, 2004 Report Share Posted April 30, 2004 Picked up a used copy of Roscoe Mitchel / Brus Trio: After Fallen Leaves. Which is better than AMG gives it credit for. I don't thing the Brus Trio is as bad a AMG makes out. Granted it doesn't supply too much fireworks, but it's not left for dead either. A very nice remake of Sing is included on the cd, and Mitchel is wonderful as usual. Each time I hear Mitchel it gets deeper in my brain that this guy is a fantastic musician. I'm just trying to convince myself to buy his Solo 3 release. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I don't thing the Brus Trio is as bad a AMG makes out. Much better. I consider this a triumph for Roscoe since I think the record they made with Charles Tyler is very sad for all involved. Roscoe is a stronger personality in playing situations than Charles was. Charles needed to be in complete control (or sympathy) to make the music work.

Funny (rat?) enough, just a couple of days ago I listened to Charles Tyler's beautiful Midwestern Drifter CD (live trio set with Denis Charles and Wilber Morris).

Д.Д. Posted May 1, 2004 Report Share Posted May 1, 2004 Charles Tyler's beautiful Midwestern Drifter CD (live trio set with Denis Charles and Wilber Morris). Please give me the details for that one. Chuck, my mistake, the trio session I was referring to is Wilber Morris' "Collective Improvisation". Mid Wester Drifter is also a trio, but with bass and piano. I haven't listened to it for quite some time. As I remember, Tyler recites (well) his poems a bit, and plays alto mostly. I also remember it being very emotional - not on the sense of hysterical screaming or something like that, but in the sense of music directly conveying the emotions of the player. I will listen to it again and will report here. It's on Bleu Regard label Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Д.Д. Posted May 1, 2004 Report Share Posted May 1, 2004 (edited) Friends, I just heard a solo saxophone CD which is probably just as good as Gebbia's Arcana Major... To be certain, I listened to it three times. It is really good. Ned Rothenberg "The Crux. Selected Solo Wind Works (1989-1992)" (Leo, 1993) To be obtained immidiately.

gnhrtg Posted May 1, 2004 Report Share Posted May 1, 2004 (edited) For some reason, "The Crux" seems not to gather much attention. I agree that it deserves much more praise and attention. "Intervals," is quite good too, so for those who were really impressed with "The Crux" that might be the next to get. It's nothing radically different and is a 2-disc release and "The Crux" offers a more compact peek into Rothenberg's skills and way of playing.

P.L.M Posted May 2, 2004 Report Share Posted May 2, 2004 (edited) Hey, boys, where were you all that time? THE CRUX is old stuff from 1993! As good as GIANNI GEBBIA? That's not much encouraging to get it (something like a smiley, here.) Well, long time that I didn't listen to it. But I remember to have liked it a lot years ago. I will give it a refreshing listen soon. But if you're interesting in ROTHENBERG, one to get it's his duet with DENMAN MARONEY on CIMP (to those who fear CIMP sound of thruth, all the records who involved piano are NOT recorded in the Spirit Room.) TOOLS OF TRADE is the name. And it's a marvellous duet between an inventive pianist much in the contemporary style and the alto of Rothenberg at his highest.

Д.Д. Posted May 2, 2004 Report Share Posted May 2, 2004 Since you folks are talking about avant-garde jazz,could you recommend me something similar like Tony Oxley's The Baptised Traveller? It's an AMAZING album and I'd really like to hear something similar.I also recently bought Oxley's "4 Compositions for Sextet" but didn't like it very much. Swinger, I was listening to Oxley's "Baptised Traveller" today (it is a great album indeed, and VERY uncharacteristic Evan Parker playing), and thought that you might enjoy Sven-Ake Jhansson's "Six Little Pieces for Quintet" (hatOLOGY) (AMG review).

P.L.M., if you don't stop this mockery of sacred, I will start praising Odean Pope in every post. I probably will in any case. In 1993 I was listening to death metal and Stravinsky's "Firebird" mostly. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
