Amir ElSaffar – Two RiversR-1721062-1239127694.jpg.8d836cf00d94d7567e7d15a3fea88591.jpg

first listen to this, and really enjoying it. As with other records by ElSaffar, I wonder what he'd sound like playing on someone else's record as a sideman. He seems to be a really great trumpeter. I'd love to hear him playing e.g. label mate Henry Threadgill's compositions.

Well good to read. Wasn't aware that these are still in the stock of the LAJI. I am missic  also the 2 you got so I will ask again.

BTW did you donate for the forthcoming special edition as announced in the Jazz West Coast (email)  group?

Working through them? It's an interesting body of work, including some later ones on other labels.

Saw a performance at QEH which was quite unlike anything else I had heard then or since. Fascinating

I hadn't listened to them for ages. I forgot how good many of them are (although some are a bit snoozy). The decision to have the string players was a good one.

What are the later ones that you're referring too? I mainly know the ECMs.

Actually, listening through a couple of Best of the 1990s lists from randoms on the internet. They show up a fair bit, along with the endless Keith Jarretts.
