VORTEX is magnificent.

The *best* Parker-Guy-Lytton on record

Do you have "The Two Seasons"??!??!

Sorry to report--no. Will have to remedy that.

My copy is gone. I lent it to someone I'll never lend anything to again.

Best Mark Sanders and John Edwards on record. Parker mostly on tenor and playing at a very high level.

The Mars / IHF/ Daisy sounds like a promising line up.

it is. I have the Boneshaker LP on Trost. Excellent session, aptly named. That Cd above is from the same sessions, I believe

Is that Blue Lights disc a new one?

Yes, I got it from Mars yesterday at a Harrison Bankhead concert put on by Lazaro Vega. Thanks. I was aware of the group and have been waiting for something to come out. Edited by colinmce

That's a coincidence, I just stumbled upon that release this weekend looking for some Michael Zerang records (after being very impressed by the Sleepless in Chicago record by Mikolaj Trzaska). The line up for this album is definitely very strong, and I really liked the fact that the album is influenced by middle eastern songs, but I have to admit that after listening to the songs on the bandcamp page the whole thing left me a little bit underwhelmed. As for my personal taste, I would prefer the middle eastern influence to be much stronger. To me, this "just" sounded like very well played modern Jazz, but I didn't really feel that they caught the heart of what I would consider middle eastern music/culture (but then again, what do I know as a white European atheist from the Netherlands).

I've never really understood Warne Marsh's enduring appeal to me but he is one of the few musicians whose music I can put on and immediately feel better. Lee Konitz is another one....

Mathias Eick - Midwest [ECM]

because we all love ECM :smirk:

Pre-order? I haven't been able to find it currently in stock anywhere.

No, on its way from Amazon UK. I think we've got different Europe/US release dates. Often happens with ECM I think

two treats in store there. 'Weaving Symbolics' has a variety of line-up sizes not seen elsewhere in his discography
