Peter Brötzmann - Long Story Short

[robertoart]

I just want my copy of Low Life back. Bought at time of release and lent to a grubby Baritone player the next week, who proceeded to decamp to Amsterdam.

Never got to hear the Lp.

Was that a good record

This is now on Spotify in UK for any interested parties

yay - thanks for the heads up

Thought I might purchase the download via Spotify - but they have stopped selling downloads! There has been no announcement from them so far as I know.

I hadn't noticed any announcement but then I've never purchased downloads through them. I'm still in the dark ages either using Spotify as a taster before purchasing physical product or as a "radio" of music I don't want to shell the readies on.

The Brotz box is very good (or at least the parts I've got through so far) so I hope you can find a download somewhere

Spotify was good for downloads of longer tracks as they charged per track, so bargains were to be had. That said, like you I tend to either stream or buy CD. That said, the download + burn option is fine for me on stuff I know I'll have exhausted after a few listens... Would have probably worked well for this set...

The poor man's alternative might be the double Walk Love Sleep, the 2011 tentet only - going cheaply on amazon.co.uk

Just got word that Brotzmann and Keiji Haino will appear in Houston on October 9.

I posted elsewhere but it needs to be said that the 51 piece with Drake, Laswell etc. is pretty damn great.

hit or miss for the rest of the set to these ears so far

Then go clean your ears! It's almost entirely hit for me!
