Joe McPhee's Survival Unit III - Live NYC Vision Festival 2007 ,FLAC and LAME
This recording comes by way of a torrent (thanks to "jazzrita" for seeding). It is an audience recording. The sound quality is reasonable, I'd say typical of a modern audience boot. I've enclosed a small 1 min mp3 sample (see Links) so you can judge for yourself.

I'd be interested to know where McPhee got the name "Survival Unit" (was it a personal statement about his life?), why there wasn't a SU I, but III came 30 years or so after II.

Many thanks for this Boromir. McPhee to me is a wholly original giant. I'll never understand why he flies beneath the radar. Nice to see some of Chicago's lesser known lights getting out there, too.
Thanks again!
slothrop - because he's original, unfortunately...
all the hip cats do dig him ;-)
thanks boromir!
actually "survival unit one" was a pre-recorded tape. in early 70s joe used to have it on hand when some of his band members could not make it to the show.
survival unit ii (recently re-issued by hathut guys) is one of the essential albums in his discography. used to be very difficult to find. now it is thankfully available again.
this here is a very good set. i'd recommend to visitors visout hesitation.
all the best,
atanase
Thanks for that insight, atanase. I wonder if the others used to mime to to the tape if they were a mon short.
Could somebody reup this one, please?
