Joseph Jarman

[Chuck Nessa]

Joseph is 75 today and I just spoke with him. He is ok.

I extend much thanks to Mr. Jarman, my friend since 1966.

Thanks, Mr. Jarman, for joys received in concerts and recordings. All the best at 75.

[JSngry]

75...wow...keep going strong!

[alocispepraluger102]

a good reason to hear 2 of my favorite recordings in this world, song for and out of the mist.

for a time in the 90s, mr. jarman had put his horn away. we are richly blessed that it did not stay so.

Belated happiest of happy birthdays to Mr. Jarman. Song For was one of the first "outside" jazz LPs I purchased, and it made quite an impact.

Yes--best to Joseph!

I am curious about the year you made this discovery.

[clifford_thornton]

1996.

Ayler and Coltrane were the first jazz musicians I investigated; not too much later, Jarman, Mitchell, Dolphy and Taylor followed.

Then, I discovered that my dad played Braxton and Sam Rivers albums when I was a wee tyke, so I guess it was "in there" somewhere. Anyway, another subject.
