"Martha My Dear" after "Alfie" (after "Knives Out") is a nice sequence to start Day is Done, as well. We'll see if his interpretation of "Maxwell's Silver Hammer" was really necessary, but there are some interesting choices on the new one. Looking forward to it.
Blackbird is on the vol 1 I’m spinning and it is really nice. Maxwell’s Silver Hammer? Are you kidding me? (Yes I know it’s on the list). Good grief. How about Why Don’t We Do It In The Road?
With that lineup but a few decades earlier... recorded a few months after Sizzle. Bass – Dave Holland Percussion – Barry Altschul Tenor Saxophone, Soprano Saxophone, Flute, Piano, Composed By – Sam Rivers
Revolution #9? I've yet to see it or hear any of it, have just seen mention of it here the past few days. I know that 'it's just a click away...' but haven't. NP: Seeing mention here of this show days back on CD got me to hook up the cable to the DVD player to stick in the version that I have, the Eagle Rock video of Mingus at Montreux 1975: Pullen, Walrath, Adams, Richmond, with Gerry Mulligan and Benny Bailey joining in at the end.
Yes thanks for the Info. There is one 3 LP set in the box content from which I have only the second LP with the Peterson Trio + 2 missing Lps so the box has some new Items for me
Thanks @chervokas A work dinner commitment just came up so my jazz evening plan has been foiled. My fall-back is now Walter Smith 10pm show at Vanguard. So many jazz options every night in NYC.
Staying with the Rs...Ray Russell is one of those guitarists who seem to fly under the radar but is worth searching out. Something on this made me sit up a bit near the end of side 1 there's a passage where Russell plays the guitar like a banjo strumming it. King Crimson fans will now of a similar technique that Fripp used on "A Sailors Tale" recorded mere months after Russell's gig at the ICA. Is it possible that Fripp heard it? Or are they both channelling someone like Sonny Sharrock. Bass – Daryl Runswick Drums – Alan Rushton Guitar – Ray Russell Tenor Saxophone, Bass Clarinet, Flute – Tony Roberts Trumpet, Flugelhorn – Harry Beckett

I haven’t checked the Mehldau project out either but my partner heard the Fresh Air program the other day.
While I love the album, I dont think it was as innovative as any that you list here or some others so I personally would not rate it equally to them
Don Cherry, Terry Riley, and Karl Berger/ 1975-02-23 Köln Keith Jarrett/ 1975-02-02 Bremen Two February 1975 shows in Germany that pair well together. (I already listened to The Köln Concert a couple days ago, as I slowly wind my way through the Jarrett solo recordings that I have, towards the Sun Bear box.) I'd guess that Jarrett's Bremen concert hasn't been officially released only because Keith and Manfred are afraid that it would detract from his most famous solo recording. But after Keith has departed to the next realm, I'd guess that we'll see ECM put out a few more solo concerts from the period. Worth tracking down in the meantime. Or, if YT will do for you, here's an upload there:
When I was working, I heard Fresh Air every day, sometimes multiple times in the same day, but since then, only if I'm in the car at noon, which isn't often. There's the archive, but that's just plain intimidating, when it comes to time.
1995 Alto Saxophone, Flute – Talib Kibwe Double Bass – Alex Blake (2) Drums – Billy Higgins Percussion – Neil Clarke Piano, Composed By – Randy Weston Producer – Jean-Philippe Allard, Randy Weston Tenor Saxophone – Billy Harper Trombone – Benny Powell
Another from YouTube. This image is the original Mainstream LP from 1973, with five tracks. I listened to the 1993 CD reissue with four additional tracks. With Herman Riley (ts), Freddie Robinson (g), Don Bailey (harmonica), Joe Sample (p & electric p), Walter Bishop, Jr. (p), Darrell Clayborn (electric b) & Ray Pounds (d). Producer: Bob Shad. Mostly jazz-funk, but high-quality. Mitchell & Robinson had recently played in John Mayall's band.
Bobby Hutcherson/ Stick-Up! Billy Higgins gives the music a lively kick, and Joe Henderson brings some edge to the session. Hutcherson is in his usual ebullient form. Tyner seems kind of reserved, but you can tell that it's him. Playing the 1997 Blue Note Connoisseur CD. Without having an alternative edition for comparison, it still sounds fine to me. And seeing that the 2019 Japan CD is already out of print, and Don Was is not interested in selling a Tone Poet remaster on CD, I'll just have to keep on keepin' on, anyway.
