Happy Birthday man. Quote
7/4 Posted October 7, 2011 Author Report Posted October 7, 2011 but I did see them around! I've been listening to to Mat a lot lately. I think he's so unique. I'm particularly crazy about So What? (hatology 529). He really comes up with some crazy textures from his instrument....man. Quote

(hatology 529). He really comes up with some crazy textures from his instrument....man. He' s very impressive on Algonquin with Cecil, not just holding his own (that's hard enough I would imagine) but takes charge at times and moves the music in his direction. By the Laws of Music with Matt Shipp is also a favourite of mine. Haven't got into his leader dates. Any recs? And I haven't forgotten the stuff with Papa Jo... Quote
7/4 Posted October 8, 2011 Author Report Posted October 8, 2011 I want the Cecil recording, never heard it. Quote
jeffcrom Posted October 8, 2011 Report Posted October 8, 2011 I want the Cecil recording, never heard it. You need it. Quote

7/4 Posted October 8, 2011 Author Report Posted October 8, 2011 I'll be busy working, can't do it. Last time I heard Mat play was with Evan Parker two years ago. Quote
7/4 Posted October 9, 2011 Author Report Posted October 9, 2011 I just added the Cecil to the want list on my phone. Quote
7/4 Posted October 18, 2011 Author Report Posted October 18, 2011 I just added the Cecil to the want list on my phone. got it last weekend, two listens in and I love it. I also got Trinity, a solo album on ECM...perfect for that label and a bunch of others I'll get into later. Still crazy about So What? Quote
David Ayers Posted October 18, 2011 Report Posted October 18, 2011 but I did see them around! I've been listening to to Mat a lot lately. I think he's so unique. I'm particularly crazy about So What? (hatology 529). He really comes up with some crazy textures from his instrument....man. Ah, with you on that. Love the dour feel of the whole thing... Quote
Д.Д. Posted October 22, 2011 Report Posted October 22, 2011 I particularly enjoy his trio stuff (with Randy Peterson on drums and Ed Schuller ob bass) - there are three CDs on Leo. In addition to music being outstanding, they are also really well produced (by Maneri himself). Quote
7/4 Posted July 29, 2013 Author Report Posted July 29, 2013 First listen to Lucian Ban and Mat Maneri - Transylvanian Concert. 7/4 approves. Quote
jlhoots Posted July 29, 2013 Report Posted July 29, 2013 He sounds great on the (relatively) new Kris Davis Clean Feed CD. Quote
Steve Reynolds Posted July 29, 2013 Report Posted July 29, 2013 See my recent comments over the past few years regarding seeing him a whole lot live over the past 2 years. To my ears among the best 3 or 4 improvisers on the planet The quintet with Oscar Noriega and Randy Peterson needs to be recorded With either Kris Davis or Craig Taborn on the piano and it would be great if Ed Schuller is on bass. The duo CD with Lucien Ban is nice Capricorn Climber does NOT capture that band and especially does NOT capture what Mat is like live with that band. A damn shame that Mat Maneri isn't served well on recent recordings. Then again I'm blessed to be able to see him often usually within 10 feet where I can hear and feel his genius. And the memories of seeing him with his Dad a few times with the classic quartet will always resonate with me. Last time this year with Randy and Ed was especially intense. But he may have played even better with Kris and the trio with Ches Smith and Craig Taborn was the best 2 sets of music I've heard this year. Quote

Not going to see him here in the great southwest - so (among others) Capricorn Climber will have to do. Quote

Mat is still working on getting his own label started - if that happens then everyone will get to hear *his* music Quote
