Hadley Caliman's Iapetus - if you are a Santana fan, you might want to compare this recording to the beginning of the Caravanserai album.

Nimbus West fest

Don't be put off by the bizarre cover and title, it's very good.

I have that Kikuchi release, it's a good one.

I own and enjoy the Incipient ICP on C vs D, have periodically considered Tenterettet but never pulled the trigger.

I like how they mix musical elements together so indiscriminately -- the whole kitchen sink -- but it somehow coheres.  Like a surreal three-ring circus.  

I don't know Incipient ICP.  Should I check it out?

Yes.  Hard to go wrong with Kikuchi, imo -- especially in early-70s.

Carter's magnum opus.

Which entry in the series is your favorite, Jim?  On most days, I think I'd choose Fields.   But they're all terrific.

I ICP is earlier, more experimental, smaller ensembles but has many of the same elements. And an irony / sense of humor that is oddly lacking in much of the musical sphere. Definitely worth checking out, but 2-CD and bigger investment so look for samples if available.

How I wish their terrific Thelonious Monk + Herbie Nichols interpretations would be reissued properly....

soulpope - You're referring to the tributes on Soul Note -- Regeneration and Change of Season ???  

Or are you talking about something else?

soulpope is spot on with these.  Idea occurred to me independently while driving to work and I'd intended to post them. I located a Monk/Nichols via discogs.
