    Amazing record! All Simulacrum cds are really something. I can't just listen to only one of them... Inferno is my second favourite one, close to The painted bird.

    That photo of Bob and Sidney is probably from 1949.

    It really is. I own The Painted Bird but I have yet to listen to it. There’s so much Zorn in my collection that I haven’t even heard yet. See you on the Zorn thread. ;)

    When you come from a small country you have this pride whenever you see it mentioned.
    So, although I'm not a "fado" fan - at all - I'm happy to see you enjoying that Portuguese fado singer.
    So thank you Lonson for "playing Portugal".

    I have a pretty large collection of "fado" singers myself. I love the passion.

    Agreed. It does not sound a lot like his later efforts. Jaco also gave the album a different, perhaps more soulful feel. What an amazing debut. I like the story about how Gary Burton 'discovered' him.

    I've liked almost everything he has done except, as you've said, the really out ones. I had the original record of Song X but sold it because I could not listen to it. But I later got the expanded cd and it seemed more interesting. Still, I've not really listened to it for a long time.

    I've been playing his recordings with Brad Mehldau (another of my favorite musicians) and they are quite special.

    I need to listen to those Metheny/Mehldau albums again as it’s been quite some time since I’ve heard them. I, too, own the expanded edition of Song X and I still scratch my head when I revisit it.

    I've just listened to Beyond the Missouri Sky again after many years. It was a favorite for a while but these days I find it just a bit too saccharine sweet for me.

    I like all these guys - Metheny, Frisell, Zorn. Zorn especially is so prolific that it's hard to navigate his output.

    Speaking of Haden, there has been quite a no. of posthumous releases especially of his duo recordings. Those with Keith Jarrett and with Mehldau are nothing short of wonderful.

    I think once you’ve gotten a handle on Zorn’s output, it’s quite easy to separate the wheat from the chaff. Even if I don’t like a Zorn album, I gain something from it and I’m all the better for it. He constantly challenges me and keeps me on my musical toes. I can’t say that for a lot of musicians. But all of this would be nothing if I didn’t enjoy his music and there’s a lot of albums he’s made that I come back to time and time again.

    When you posted it I didn't even realize I had it. My collection is a complete mess...but that makes it fun!

  22. Well "the mess" is fun for one and isnt for another collector ;-]]
    You could start a private database [Access] and type in every day 25 Items (as I did many years ago) without interruption that is important.. Today I can identify every Item by Cat# or label or alphabetic order or CD or vinyl or mono or stereo.
    I have started also with "Paint Shop Pro" to scan the covers for posting and have them saved in Excel in alphabetic order.
    Good luck
