[Mike Schwartz]

In my early Bay Area days and the beginnings of my radio daze, was truely fortunate to see Brown on a number of occassions, as well as meet with him a few times....a remarkable spirit! I have the "One For The Road" LP

I'm pausing before P because some new cds just came in the mail.

Chris McGregor's Brotherhood of Breath- self-titled
Alex von Schlippenbach- friulian sketches
The Blue Notes- The Ogun collection disc 1

The first disc of the Blue Notes recorded live in 1964 starts out very boppish. Track 5, "Vortex Special" is about 90% "So What." Track 6, though, a beautiful ballad called "B My Dear" is also on the Dedication Orchestra's "Spirits Rejoice."

[Ron Thorne]

Another birthday gift from one of my sons:



He's a new artist to me, and I'm enjoying the debut recording (1998) from this young British trumpeter who plays flugelhorn exclusively on this album.

Would be real interesting to hear that again. Live, I remember being frustrated by Drake's & Parker's normally so enjoyable but here, IMO, insensitive groove, which drowned the Ornettish honks & squeals of Moondoc, then more or less unknown to me, now a big alto favourite.
