I think I picked him up as a reference in that Soejima book. He was part of the second generation of free jazz types. 

Solo saxophone and the EP comparison is clear, but there are significant differences in style. 

It is on YouTube I think. 

Now on:

Sil Austin - Red Prysock – Battle Royal!

Thanks

Carmen Lundy “Come Home” Afrasia Productions cd

Up early with Fiona the dachshund. Sigh. Great sound on this cd though compensates.

Miles Davis "Volume 1" Blue Note Japan 85th Anniversary UHQCD

Includes 3 alternates.

 

I like those two BN albums Miles made, though they may not be his most representative albums.

I think I remember the first volume has mostly Dizzy associated bop themes, and the second has Horace Silver on it.

My wife did like very much the track "Weirdo" , that kind of super cool blues. She said it sounds like a soundtrack for one of those old, really old policefilms series in black and white.....

and that has led me to play

I think I have the first one and I had bought it when I was still almost a kid. It was a good model for me to learn to play solo piano, I think I played some of those if I had to play solo, maybe a last encore, something like that Eddie Heywood arrangement of "Begin the Beguine". Stuff like that goes very well for a last tune in the small hours, just for some friends who still are in the venue....

Végh Quartet “The Art Of Vegh Quartet” 14 cd box set, disc 7–the last of the Beethoven string quartets, recorded 1952.

Among my favorite interpretations of the Beethoven string quartets–the later stereo are perhaps even a bit better.

Andrew Hill “Point of Departure” Blue Note Japan 85th Anniversary UHQCD

Not a favorite Blue Note or Hill but it sure sounds good in this edition.

Followed by
Zoot Sims “Hawthorne Nights” Pablo cd

A dectet arranged by Bill Holman and Zoot really stands out.

Prompted by the news that this landmark is being reissued in the Tone Poet series:

I have the two-CD set, and I've made a six-song playlist that mirrors the original LP's sequencing.  IMO, hearing the music this way works better than listening to the tunes in chronological order (as on the CDs).  Gotta respect the integrity of the album!  . . .  Well, you don't have to.  But I like to.

Really a landmark Item but for me NOT at those Tone Poem prices + postage. My Blue Notes will do.
