the Revolutionary Ensemble- manhattan cycles 1972 (india navigation lp 1023) lame and flac
heres an old favourite , and a tasty follow up to recent Braxton postings.
I don’t think this has been reissued on cd , it was reissued on innercity in 1978,.
Sadly very few of their albums are available at present.
This is one long continuous piece recorded live in concert on December 31st 1972 (the record cover does not specify where.
This even features an early example of the turntable as instrument, billie holiday’s low moan being clearly audible , though seeming to emerge out of a fog..and becoming less and less audible as the piece progresses.
This was the first release on India navigation.. and it’s a beauty.
Hope you enjoy it.
Flacs will be added , later tonight or tomorrow if they are required.

Fantastic.
Leroy Jenkins - wonderful
sotise, I tip my hat to you
Many thanks.
SUPER!! Love & respect to Leroy's Great Spirit
Wo ho ho, what is it ? Never heard of this album. really looking forward to listen, one of the most captivating groups I came to hear on record. Many thanks Sotise !
Best
p.s : nothing new on Eccels...?
Brilliant! Many thanks. My old India Nav. copy is too worn to play anymore, especially on the radio. Will make great use of this. Cheers!
Hey Sotise thanks for this post. I think it's sad that so many of the India Navigations are not readily available in CD form. I have the LP and scanned the front cover for anyone interested.

Lovely stuff thanks sotise
this is a treasure.
for me, one of the most beautiful things about the blogging scene has is having all these revolutionary ensemble records made available.
can anybody tell me what the bop head is that the phonograph starts playing at the end of side B? I don't know what it is.
thank you so much,
brian
brian, it sounds to me like a sped up version of now's the time.
could be wrong though.
Excellent. Looking forward to this 'un.
Thanks!
Thanks for this! One of my favorite performances ever was Leroy + Felicia Norton at Vision in 2005. Such a sound, such a spirit...
Finally got to listen to this one. Tip: Put it on the Ipod if you plan to get around to listen to something. Very chamber-like, closeted, almost stark, this one. But I've gotta listen more, hopefully.
Hello sotise
We start 'India Navigation Discography' and made a link to this post.
If you do not want it, please tell me so.
Keep it up and thank you in advance.

Thank you.
Too great! I'm hyped... thanks a lot.
you are awesome
This site continues to give and give and give some more. Thank you for all your hard work and generosity. This album sounds incredible.
Many thanks. I'd never heard this before.
I would love a flac copy of this as my vinyl wore out many years ago, but the link does not work, so can anybody help? Thanks
Here you go TomP - these are the FLAC files for Manhattan Cycles as posted 4 years back

Excellent re-up! I have this on vinyl somewhere.
i am sorry but can you re post this one once more please ?....thank you very much

Adrive
This is an audio-upgrade version supplied by Tom P. Sounds very nice, indeed.
I have two live recordings of this ensemble from 1977 - one lasting two and a half hours! I'll put them on the to do list as there seems to be an interest in hearing more of this group.
HUGE THX!...
Many thanks
