Guy Berger Posted December 13, 2014 Report Share 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.

Justin V Posted December 13, 2014 Report Share Posted December 13, 2014 The bassist is the excellent Larry Gray. That lineup sounds like a winner. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

How did it sound as a performance, Chuck? (If you don't mind me asking, of course!) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Chuck Nessa Posted December 13, 2014 Report Share 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.
