Guy Berger Posted December 13, 2014 Report Posted December 13, 2014 (edited) I decided to put this here instead of in the main ECM thread because I'm guessing the interest will be more general - but in January, ECM will be releasing a 2013 live recording of a quintet with Jack, Muhal Richard Abrams, Roscoe Mitchell, Henry Threadgill and Richard Larry Gray as a 50th anniversary tribute to the AACM (with compositions by Jack, Muhal, Roscoe, Henry as well as some collective improv). It's live so some of Manfred Eicher's more controversial production choices should be less less disruptive, I'm guessing. Edited December 13, 2014 by Guy Quote
Justin V Posted December 13, 2014 Report Posted December 13, 2014 The bassist is the excellent Larry Gray. That lineup sounds like a winner. Quote

Chuck Nessa Posted December 13, 2014 Report Posted December 13, 2014 This is from the Chicago Jazz Festival. I was there and am curious to hear how it sounds as a cd. Quote

Chuck Nessa Posted December 13, 2014 Report Posted December 13, 2014 (edited) It was very fine as a performance - what I would expect from those folks. I am just curious about the way it will be programmed. I do know Jack was delighted after the performance. Edited December 13, 2014 by Chuck Nessa Quote

Chuck Nessa Posted December 13, 2014 Report Posted December 13, 2014 Jack had people with video equipment and conducted interviews with all the participants. He wanted everything documented. Quote

David Ayers Posted December 14, 2014 Report Posted December 14, 2014 Is this basically a blowing session or something more interesting? Quote
