colinmce Posted September 24, 2014 Report Posted September 24, 2014 Fred Anderson CDs: -Vintage Duets -Live at the Velvet Lounge (Kowald/Drake) -A Night at the Velvet Lounge/Live at the 'Made in Chicago' Festival Lennie Tristano Quartet - Unreleased Recordings 2xLP Quote
Steve Reynolds Posted September 24, 2014 Report Posted September 24, 2014 The okkadisk trio with Anderson/Kowald/Drake is one of the best Fred Anderson recordings. The great bassist really pushes it. Quote
Leeway Posted September 25, 2014 Report Posted September 25, 2014 I don't know Fujii, but this one has come well-recommended on this board, so I'm excited to hear it. I saw Fujii in a trio the other night at Pathhead ( a small village outside Edinburgh. Tom Bancroft (drums ) lead the completely improvised set . It was a stunning concert that really defies description. I felt truly privileged . I ended up buying 4 discs featuring her or her husband ( trumpeter Natsuki Tamura ) I think her Ma- do quartet is possibly her best group. I am promising myself to get this recording. Plus I love the cover. I hear good, even great things, about Satoko Fuji, but it is going to take me a while to get over her disastrous Vision Fest appearance. Maybe her husband can take some of the blame for that, but it was still her gig. One of the big disappointments for me. Perhaps she comes across better on disc. Broke the piggy bank today and ordered: 1) Badenhorst, Joachim / John Butcher / Paul Lytton: Nachtigall 2) Decoy with Joe Mcphee: Spontaneous Combustion [2 CDs] (have the LP but need the additional minutes) 3) Mitchell, Roscoe / Mike Reed: In Pursuit of Magic 4) Nilssen-Love, Paal Large Unit: Erta Ale [3 CD BOX SET] Quote

Would love to hear your thoughts down the road 2) is a given as the first live recording by Decoy & McPhee has some passages that really explode with McPhee playing as fierce a tenor saxophone as I've heard from him for some time. I expect more and better with a 2 CD set Quote

I've a couple of Badenhorst's solo releases that I enjoy.3) Everything I've heard with Mike Reed on drums has been good and the one opportunity to hear him live certainly didn't disappoint so the duet with RM intrigues.4) As for the PNL - it's interesting that he should form a large unit after his work with Brotzmann and Gjerstad's. From little I've read about it he's got a new generation of players on board which is good.and Decoy? well it is Decoynice haul, worth sacrificing the piggy bank for I'd say (just surprised Moran's 'All Rise' isn't in there ) Quote
Leeway Posted September 25, 2014 Report Posted September 25, 2014 Steve, you skipped #3 . mjazzg, you know I wanted it but budget and all that . I'm waiting for his next "collaboration" - who can it be? Brotzmann? Evan Parker? I'll hold out for that. Quote

I'm waiting for his next "collaboration" - who can it be? Brotzmann? Evan Parker? I'll hold out for that. Not a huge fan of drum duets with saxophonists unless they are Evan Parker & Eddie Prevost or Paul Lytton or John Stevens Seriously it isn't my favorite set-up I like a third wheel to amp up the interplay and energy level I'd like to hear Roscoe with Mark Sanders!!!

colinmce Posted October 4, 2014 Report Posted October 4, 2014 I found $10 copies of Charles Gayle's Abiding Variations and Berlin Movement on FMP. The seller has burned me twice before bit I guess it's worth a shot again. (They always refund for the ones "lost in the mail"...) Quote
colinmce Posted October 8, 2014 Report Posted October 8, 2014 Got around to ordering the new Coltrane and Giuffre live sets. Quote
mjazzg Posted October 9, 2014 Report Posted October 9, 2014 Having realised they were limited - the two Audio One releases "The Midwest School" and "An International Report" from Vandermark and cohorts.Also, Scorch Trio & Mars Williams - Made in Norway [Rune Gramofon]- wanted some more Williams and thought this could be a winning combination Quote

I wanted to buy a DKV trio recording for some time now, and on the same day I listened to Don Cherry's Complete Communion since quite a while (and loving it) I noticed the DKV trio used that theme for disk one. Than on that same day I also read in the "Best track you heard all week" topic your comment regarding track 2 and 3 of disk two, so it was an easy decision after that. Quote

Buddha the Magnificent Posted October 30, 2014 Report Posted October 30, 2014 That Andrew Hill album (Andrew Hill - Dusk [1999, Palmetto]) looks interesting. Quote
duaneiac Posted October 30, 2014 Report Posted October 30, 2014 (edited) I found a brand new, sealed copy of this set on Amazon for a really good price, so I finally splurged on it. Looking forward to listening to it, although I expect I will do so in bits and pieces. 24 discs is a LOT of talk! Edited October 30, 2014 by duaneiac Quote
JohnJ Posted October 31, 2014 Report Posted October 31, 2014 Bought this from Michael at the Vanguard Jazz Orchestra concert in Tokyo last night. Great stuff! Quote
The Magnificent Goldberg Posted October 31, 2014 Report Posted October 31, 2014 This one, ordered at the same time and the same Amazon seller as the earlier one, turned up today. Edgar Hayes - 1938-1948 - Classics Hayes ought to be a LOT better known, MG Quote
