Modern/Avant New Releases: A running thread

[Steve Reynolds]

That Guy set looks nice. Will try to spring for it.

All arrived today.

To check the sound played snippets of Parker-Guy-Lytton and it sounds awesome. Puts every clean feed CD I've bought to shame.

Engines based on one track equally great sound

The Amado has the best recorded Gerald Cleaver in existence. He finally sounds like he does live.

Diggin in as much as I can over the next few weeks to all of it.

Roberto Pattinato- Purity - (Sony) Not heard of this Argentinian tenor sax player but look at the company he's keeping. Pattinato doesn't strike me as particularly original. Free tenor blower but i've listened to this repeatedly over the past month.

Word of warning my copy has 2 second silent drop out at about the 52 minute mark , I've not tried another copy so don't know if it's widespread.

[Blue Train]

 

Actually - while I think of it - this recent one with Joe McPhee, and me playing Hammond, may be appropriate for this thread..!

 

I was at that. For some reason, I never noticed you were the same Alexander Hawkins.

P.S. For those interested. The sound on the recording is so much better than the video.

A new 3cd set of two live performances by Thomas Chapin.....including his last performance.

http://thomaschapin.com/articles-cd-reviews/226/never-let-me-go-3-cd-thomas-chapin-quartets-95-and-96


They also recieved the funding need to start filming the documentary about him.

P.S. I am not sure if theis board's search engine is working but no mention of Chapin can be found. I know there is one member who uses an avatar of him...and I know Steve Reynolds is a fan as well.

For those new to him....my favorite would be his trio recording Sky Piece

There was a thread about Never Let Me Go, one about Alive, and one about TC in general. Google "Thomas Chapin organissimo".

Here is the thread on the recently released live collection.

[mjazzg]

I'm not too sure how new a release this is - I know this has been mentioned in the "now playing" thread but thought it ws of note for here too. It's as good or even better than anticipation suggests

Roscoe Mitchell - duets with Tyshawn Sorey w. guest Hugh Ragin

[clifford_thornton]

Looks cool.

[Steve Reynolds]

Ordered the following:

Long Story Short

Jon Irabagon Trio with Barry Altschul: Foxy

Barry Altschul Trio with Jon Irabagon: 3dom Factor

Couldn't wait for the May 16th show. Wanted to wet my appetite for Irabagon with Helias and Altschul

Btw Clifford, the Mad Dogs set is a must buy even though it isn't cheap.

The sound is amazing and Guy selected primo performances based on listening to most of it a couple of times through.

[Steve Reynolds]

Blue Train:

Love the Irabagon trio but not sold on the Ullman. That 2 CD set is easily the most disappointing of any of the not two CDs I ordered

[Steve Reynolds]

OK - received Long Story Short and all I had so far was on the way to work today so the question was for 40 minutes what do I choose?

So I listened to the DKV plus which is Kent Kessler: bass; Hamid Drake: drums; Paal Nilssen-Love: drums; Massimo Pupillo: electric bass; Ken Vandermark: reeds; Mats Gustafsson: reeds - 11 minutes of something mostly soft turning into a different kind of onslaught ending with Mats on baritone moaning - nice

so then I put on the following for the remainder of my drive knowing I will hear about half of the 51 minute piece:

Peter Brötzmann: reeds; Bill Laswell: electric bass; Maâllem Mokhtar Gania: guimbri; Hamid Drake: drums

and despite being unsure of believing the 2 reviews I have read that this would be amazing, I am sitting at my desk still dumbfounded by the first half of this turning it off as I pulled into the parking lot at work as Gania started singing again - having heard a few grooves I never thought I would hear Brotz play with, against *and* despite.

Laswell and Drake rule the universe

please for those who are still a bit bound up.....

Braxton: Echo Echo Mirror House

(Of course as he points out the "avant garde" is now over 50 years old.)

[Blue Train]

Found a new online store which was posted on a Peter Brotzmann FB.

They seem to have out of print stuff. Some stuff on vinyl that I didn't even know were reissued. Take for example Brotzmann's The Nearer the Bone, The Sweeter the Meat. I thought it was out of print, but they have a vinyl copy of it

A never before released Globe Unity disc.

http://catalyticsound.com/

5 pages of vinyl. Many of which I didn't even know were released on vinyl.

http://catalyticsound.com/product-category/vinyl/

Even a list of tour dates.

Yes, a good. I've purchased from it successfully.

The Brotzmann vinyl are probably reissues by this label Cien Fuegos

Two new ones on the horizon from Taylor Ho Bynum: Duo (Amherst) 2010 DVD w/ AB and a new Book of Three recording, which is very exciting to me. FYI, there's a live recording from the night before their Rogue Art session on his website.

Also forthcoming is a 4xCD set on Firehouse12.

btw, the new Clean Feed releases all look amazing:

-Revis trio w/ K Davis & Cyrille

-Tresspass Trio + Joe McPhee

-H Eisenstadt September Trio

-LAMA + Chris Speed

-Agenel/Edwards/Noble

-Mirage (Eskelin/Formanek/Alcorn)

[CraigP]

I can't keep up! I just purchased the Kris Davis, Ches Smith and Vandermark Clean Feeds, and they turn around and release more! I'll try to report on the new Book of Three at some point. BTW, the Tim Daisy download - only release Streets in Time with Bynum is excellent, and not expensive.

[clifford_thornton]

The Eric Revis w/ Davis & Cyrille is quite good.

I cannot keep up at all, with any of it.

all over both. Adasiewicsz at Oto with his Sun Rooms trio was very impressive. His recording with Brotzmann is likewise - all comes together nicely

LARK (Laubrock, Alessi, Rainey, Kris Davis) out 9/15 on Skirl.

No way I could resist this one. I have no reservations re Oto LPs, great pressings, wonderful cover art which I love !!! .

I have some concerns that newly recorded LPs we see issued these days are little more than CDs on LP with a nice cover. Oto price their LPs at a price that says , try me. So I will be supporting them too.
