Interesting rhythm section - Don Preston, Richard Davis & Andrew Cyrille. :o

When was that recorded?

How well does Don Preston fit in?

I have a CD of a Don Preston acoustic piano trio date, which is not an unqualified triumph, to my ears. I wonder if this Bradford-Carter album is something like that.

Recorded in '88. Just received a self produced disc from Bradford - Mo'tet Live at the LA County Museum of Art from 2002. Preston is on it too.

Have not listened to them yet.

Don Preston is also on the John Carter recordings for Gramavision.

I saw him a couple of years ago in a tiny studio club in New York called the Monkey--it probably didn't hold more than 20 people or so (and it wasn't full). A hard to find place. It was set up for 360 degree sound--Preston (on various electric keyboards) had a trio with a guitarist (Andre Cholmondeley), and Sheri (?) on electronic percussion). It was an interesting experience--electronic free improvision for the most part--the closest thing to a traditional song was a Captain Beefheart composition they played for an encore. I especially liked the guitarist, even though he hardly played any sounds that sounded like a guitar.

Don Preston was approachable and said that his recordings with John Carter were among his favorites of his own recordings.

The amazing Bud Powell vol1 and vol 2

Only got round to buying Vol 2 last year, having had Vol 1 on vinyl since the 60s! Both wonderful, of course!

the saleswoman actually only wanted to sell me one volume, thinking they were twice the same thing and the other one hadn't arrived..., luckily i had a look in the box... haven't played vol 2 so far but i really don't know where i've been all those years... amazing indeed

My latest buys, class gospel:

Bells Of Joy - The Collection 1951-1954

Brother Cecil L.Shaw - I Want To Know

The Brother Cecil Shaw is a fine one.

I have a Bells of Joy LP of their Checker material from 1960. Look forward to hearing their earlier recordings on the one you mentioned.

An 8 CD limited edition release by the Jonas Kullhammar Quartet called The Half Naked Truth. All the music is previously unreleased and was recorded live or in studio between 1998-2008. If you haven't heard this guy, he's the real deal.

Up over and out.

Just picked up Shades of Redd not too long ago (the conn edition) which I've been enjoying quite a bit too. Love the McLean/Brooks front line.
