kh1958 Posted 12 hours ago Report Share Posted 12 hours ago https://www.nytimes.com/2024/09/25/arts/music/jack-dejohnette-piano.html Lydia and Joan Clancy, the DeJohnettes’ personal assistant, are currently cataloging and organizing his vast sonic archive, containing decades’ worth of unreleased recordings. One tape from this trove is a turbocharged 1966 live set from the storied East Village venue Slugs’ Saloon that features DeJohnette alongside the pianist McCoy Tyner, the saxophonist Joe Henderson and the bassist Henry Grimes. It will come out on Blue Note in November as “Forces of Nature,” a title chosen, he said, “because everybody’s being pulled and pushing each other to the umpteenth level, and it shows.” Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

clifford_thornton Posted 6 hours ago Report Share Posted 6 hours ago Solid piece -- I'll definitely check out that Slugs' quartet date. Hopefully more from the archive makes its way to the surface... maybe even some material from his early Chicago days. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
T.D. Posted 6 hours ago Report Share Posted 6 hours ago Cool, and it's even on Blue Note! Highly curious about what else (eventually) gets released. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

AllenLowe Posted 4 hours ago Report Share Posted 4 hours ago (edited) He growled at me once, but I still like his music. I hit him over the head with a newspaper and he went away. Edited 4 hours ago by AllenLowe Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

JSngry Posted 3 hours ago Report Share Posted 3 hours ago I know that Jack's diverse early 70s ECM appearances took him off the "intensity" scale for some people, but that was wrong, just wrong. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rooster_Ties Posted 1 hour ago Report Share Posted 1 hour ago Wonder whose name the 1966 live set on BN will be released under?? Who was the ‘leader’ on the gig, ostensibly? And/or who was still under contact to BN in 1966? — McCoy or Joe? (Would/could that still be a factor in how it’s released today? — in terms of the name it’s under?). I suppose the date of the show could be a factor too — do we have a date yet? — relative to who was under contract until when. My cursory Googling about this — the album title and “Blue Note” came up with absolutely nothing, besides references to this NYT article. Eagerly awaiting more details!!!!! Like… Two sets, or just one?? Just one cd, or two?? Set-list?? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
