    Just noticed the Hunter lyrics. :doh: I guess that seals it.

    I think this is the only Atlantic album by Jack Wilson that I don't have. I do have two albums with Roy Ayers and they are really nice. Someday I might find a copy.

    Instead I'm spinning The Prestige Blues Swingers featuring Coleman Hawkins (Prestige/Swingville) red label mono.

    The Art Ensemble: 1967/68 (no Chicago yet)

    Collective personnel including, on collective instruments:
    Roscoe Mitchell
    Joseph Jarman
    Lester Bowie
    Malachi Favors Moghustut
    Philip Wilson
    Thurman Barker
    Robert Crowder
    Charles Clark

    I'm in for the long-haul. Nessa 5 disc set of early Art Ensemble recordings, many from the basements of Lester Bowie and Pete Bishop (I guess these are the AE Basement Tapes) as well as some from Roscoe Mitchell's apartment and Sound Studios and Tel-Mar (Chess) studios. While that sounds like a recipe for sonic disaster it's really not. Certainly not great sounding but more than listenable with no sonic anomalies, I've heard much worse formal studio recordings.
    Tracks from their earliest albums "Numbers 1 & 2", "Congliption" and "Old/Quartet" are included but it's the intimacy of these almost voyeuristic peeks into the creative process that are the most interesting.

    Yeah, Chuck found his way around the "Limited Edition" issue, as most do.

    Color me jealous. I have a feeling, based on how the participants have been playing, that it will be excellent. Hopefully there will be "tape" running. (?)
