    Listening to it as I am writing... good stuff. :thumbsup:

    Live At I.U.C.C., by Pan-Afrikan Peoples Arkestra

    I'll definitely pick it sooner than later.

    BTW, I dig a lot his/their two decades later set recorded live at LACMA and released recently by Dark Tree Records.

    Why Don't You Listen? - Live at LACMA, 1998, by Horace Tapscott with the Pan Afrikan Peoples Arkestra and the Great Voice of UGMAA

    The addition of a choir here gives an extra dimension to this strong performance of Tapscott's Arkestra.

    I see top ten 2019 lists appearing in my fakebook news feed, very few albums that have been mentioned here. Hmmm.

    Well Joel Ross Kingmaker is an easy choice for me. I would think it will turn up on some as it is very accessible.

    Not on these lists, but of course there will be more. As for these albums I haven't heard most of them myself.
    The Best Jazz of 2019
    The 10 Best Jazz Albums Of 2019
    Here are two lists where the artists are at least a bit more familiar to me:
    The top 10 jazz albums of 2019, plus December concerts across the Front Range
    The 10 Best Jazz Albums of 2019
    Of all of these the ones I most want to pick up or at least audition are Sun of Goldfinger on ECM with Tim Berne, Phalanx Ambassadors by Matt Mitchell on Pi, Diatom Ribbons by Kris Davis, and Coin Coin Chapter Four by Matana Roberts but I have to catch up on chapters one through three first.

    Good to see Larance Marable's name there. I saw him with Charlie Haden's Quartet West in '93 or '94 and I didn't know who he was. Probably the best drummer I ever saw live. He took a solo on one tune and did an extended passage only on high-hat that I cannot possibly describe.

    Yazz Ahmed and Jaimie Branch seem to top jazz lists regularly and are both popular here on this thread but I seem unable to jump on either train as of yet
    Thanks for posting the lists

    So much music, so little time.

    A bunch of the titles on these lists I've heard -- some just to audition, some that I've listened to quite a bit. Other titles on these lists are ones I've flagged for listening on my streaming platforms but haven't gotten around to yet. There are some Pi Recordings on the lists I haven't heard and, like all Pi titles, aren't streaming unfortunately. We'll see if I get a chance to audition them. But I do like list season, it calls my attention to things I've missed throughout the year.

    FWIW, the new jazz recordings I find I've listened to most this year have been Tomeka Reid's Old New and the Mario Pavone Dialect Trio album Philosophy. I've like a lot of other new jazz albums I've heard this year, but I've found myself returning to these in particular pretty steadily. Of course they were also second-half-of-the-year releases, so they're always fresher in memory at list time than first-half releases.

    Crypto/ s-t (1975)

    I've been digging the electric keys sound of this one since @Ray Cole mentioned it last week.

    Hiroshi Suzuki/ Cat (1975)

    If Freddie Hubbard played trombone, he might have made an album like this in 1975.

    I should get the Tomeka Reid recording. I have her duos album with Mazzarella and it's as good as the duos of Hemphill and Wadud from back in the day. I've seen her several times with Joe Morris and Nicole Mitchell and come to think of it those Relative Pitch albums are probably also pretty great.

    I dig a lot of the stuff coming out of the UK at the moment with Theon Cross or wherever Nubya Garcia is playing, which includes the Yazz Ahmed release. Definitely want to check out Nerija as well. Also enjoyed what I've heard from Ezra Collective.
     
  25. Sometimes you need a rest. This is the music for featuring the mellow sounds of Bobby Hackett.
