David Murray / Mal Waldron - Silence (Justin Time, 2008)

Nice to return to this one. Good and gutsy.

Lee Konitz and Rich Perry - RichLee (Steeplechase, 1998)

I'm interested whether anyone can think of a better deployment of a shellsuit in jazz than here? Konitz demolishes his sparring partner in polyester terms, giving him a crucial psychological edge when it comes to the secondary issue of the saxophone.

 He did it to Paul Bley too : 

Bley, in his subdued Hawaiian, stands no chance.

The music is so-so, btw.

Oluyemi Thomas and Gino Robair - Unity in Multiplicity (Rastascan, 1996)

How did you like this one? I listend to it just once 15 years ago or so, thought it was noisy crap.

I'm pretty much with you. It was my second listen, and I was not more interested than the first time. Nothing to told it together.

Bill Frisell - Have a Little Faith (Elektra Nonesuch, 1993)

From that era when Don Byron really was a name worth following.

Isaiah Collier & The Chosen Few - Cosmic Transitions (2021)

A but of a mishmosh of things from the past that are currently fashionable, even down to the vintage Impulse! era font choice. Still, I'll take this over the overhyped jazz kids of my 1990s youth.

Just finished this impossible masterpiece: 

Infinite Search (Embryo, 1969) by Miroslav Vitous

To my utter embarrassment, until today I had believed that this was a different album to Mountain in the Clouds, and had even held forth to a friend regarding how Infinite Search was the slightly superior album. They are, it turns out, the same record.
