It took me a while to get around to the ECM titles of Dave Holland. I heard a few when they were first released and they just didn’t click with me, but the past few years I realize how vital and interesting they are.

This one I like a lot!

Dave Holland Quintet “Extended Play: Live at Birdland” ECM 2 cd set, disc 1

Chris Potter – soprano, alto and tenor saxophones
Robin Eubanks – trombone
Steve Nelson – vibraphone, marimba
Billy Kilson – drums
Dave Holland – double-bass

Dave Holland Quintet recorded at the Birdland jazz club over four days in November 2001 and released by ECM in 2003

I managed to catch Dave's quintet for several years in a row at the Regattabar in Cambridge, MA and they never failed to amaze me. Year in and year out, the music was incredible. I was so bummed out when Dave broke that group up.

Still working my way through this one, with V. 17 (Saba/MPS) yet to be opened, and my local store now hipping me to an imminent V. 18 Jazz Behind the Iron Curtain V 1 & 2 coming in early summer. Such a fantastic series and glad that it continues.

I enjoy the music here. I have it some of it on the LP version issued on Record Store Day. I managed to snag one of the signed copies. I was a bit bummed that this LP didn't come with a download card. I was even more bummed when the CDs came out and two of the tracks on the LP release that were supposed to be "exclusive" came out on a CD version shortly afterward.

And truly, even if these are alternate takes of these two tunes, then why release a double CD set titled, "Foursight: The Complete Stockholm Tapes"?

I have no experience with the LP set as I rarely pick up modern LP releases, and generally ignore any LPs on Record Store Day. "Exclusive" to any release from a record company seems to just mean "right now this is the only place to get it." A day later it may be a different story!

The timings are different on those two tracks between LPs and cd, but without comparing those could be for extraneous reasons. Anyway, I really enjoy the two cd set.

Sun Ra Sextet: At The Village Vanguard. Zensor ZS 135 [Germany 1993]

Seems to be very interesting. I had heard Sun Ra in earlier years.

 

Here is from the tour I saw live, but I had been a Sun Ra freak much earlier and still am, though I don´t think I have more then four or five records.
